nginx and monit web interface - how to have monit on domain.com/monit versus domain.com

Question

I am using monit on my ec2 instance and I am new to nginx. Below is my nginx config file:

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name 127.0.0.1;
  location / {
    proxy_pass 127.0.0.1:2812;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
  }
}

So..if I go to domain.com I see monit. How do I modify above code where I can see monit on domain.com/monit?

Thanks

Please, try this:

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name 127.0.0.1;

  location /monit/ {
    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2812;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
  }

}
