B<Q:>
Is there a proper way to use nginx variables to make sections of
the configuration shorter, using them as macros for making
parts of configuration work as templates?
E<nbsp>
B<A:>
Variables should not be used as template macros. Variables are
evaluated in the run-time during the processing of each
request, so they are rather costly compared to plain static
configuration. Using variables to store static strings is also
a bad idea. Instead, a macro expansion and "include" directives
should be used to generate configs more easily and it can be
done with the external tools, e.g. sed + make or any other
common template mechanism.
