title: serving static files from ingress-nginx
body: <p>I have a <code>express</code> web server with static files. Let's call this my <code>express-deployment</code>. </p>
  
  <p>I'd like to use my <code>ingress-nginx</code> to serve static files from my <code>express-deployment</code> without ever actually hitting my express server. </p>
  
  <p>In <code>nginx</code> this is done with the <code>location</code> directive where you point to files locally hosted. While I see an option for <code>locations-snippet</code> in the <code>ingress-nginx</code> <code>configMap</code>, I'm not entirely sure how I would have this point to files in another container. </p>
  
  <p>Is this possible with <code>ingress-nginx</code>? If so how would I go about it?  Alternatively, is this something that requires an nginx container to be hosted along side my express server? (Seems odd that I would need 2 nginx for that) </p>
