Increase fastcgi_read_timeout for single route

I have the following Nginx configuration for forwarding requests to a PHP-FPM backend:

server {
    ...

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
    }

    location ~* \.php$ {
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.php;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
        fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_path_info;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
    }

}

One specific route in the app needs a slightly longer php max_execution_time setting. I've configured this successfully and verified it works by setting a longer fastcgi_read_timeout in the above config.

However, I don't need this to be applied to every single route. I'm guessing I need a nested location somewhere but nothing I've tried seems to work!

The fastcgi_read_timeout directive does not appear to accept dynamic values, so a separate location block for the special route will be required. Looking at your configuration file, I assume the special route is a unique URI processed by the /index.php script. Something like this should work:

location ^~ /special/route/uri {
    include fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.php;
    fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
    fastcgi_read_timeout 100s;
}

You can use a prefix location with the ^~ modifier (as above) to override the regex location that usually processes PHP files. Alternatively, you can use a regex location, but place it above the existing regex location so that it takes precedence.

See this document for location syntax.
