A python library for constructing nginx configuration files.
pip install nginx-config-builder
This library ships two interfaces to build configuration with, a high level builder API as well as the low level block-based API that the builder makes use of. Consumers can choose whichever makes sense for their use case:
The builder API is expressive and pluggable.
>>> from nginx.config.builder import NginxConfigBuilder
>>> nginx = NginxConfigBuilder(daemon='on')
>>> with nginx.add_server() as server:
... server.add_route('/foo', proxy_pass='upstream').end()
...
>>> print(nginx)
error_log logs/nginx.error.log;
worker_processes auto;
daemon on;
http {
include ../conf/mime.types;
server {
server_name _;
location /foo {
proxy_pass upstream;
}
}
}
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
The block api provides more granularity and explicitness at the cost of being substantially more verbose than the builder api.
>>> from nginx.config.api import Config, Section, Location
>>> events = Section('events', worker_connections='1024')
>>> http = Section('http', include='../conf/mime.types')
>>> http.sections.add(
... Section(
... 'server',
... Location(
... '/foo',
... proxy_pass='upstream',
... ),
... server_name='_',
... )
... )
>>> nginx = Config(
... events,
... http,
... worker_processes='auto',
... daemon='on',
... error_log='var/error.log',
... )
>>> print(nginx)
error_log var/error.log;
worker_processes auto;
daemon on;
http {
include ../conf/mime.types;
server {
server_name _;
location /foo {
proxy_pass upstream;
}
}
}
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
