Nginx configuration to identify bots

Here’s a simple configuration that will identify bots and redirect them to unsupported page.

location / {
   set $isbot 0;
   if ($http_user_agent ~* "googlebot|yahoo|bingbot|baiduspider|yandex|yeti|yodaobot|gigabot|ia_archiver|bot|curl|wget|facebookexternalhit|twitterbot|developers\.google\.com") {
       set $isbot 1;
   }
   if($isbot) {
       # bot identified...
       rewrite .* /$scheme://$host/unsupported.html break;
   }
   try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
}
