You can see many examples in: tests/test.yml.

  • nginx_vhosts: List of dict. A vhost has few keys. See bellow.

Common

  • name: (M) Domain or list of domain used.

  • enable: (O) Enable the vhost (default is true)

  • override_try_files: (O) overrides default try_files defined in template
  • manage_local_content: (O) Boolean. Set to false if you don't want to manage local content (images, css...). This option is useless if you use _proxy template or redirect_to feature.

Proxy template allow you to use Nginx as reverse proxy. Usefull when you have application serveur such as Redmine, Jenkins...

You have many key added to vhost key:

  • upstream_name: (O) upstream name used to pass proxy
  • proxy_params: (M) list of raw params passed to the vhost

(O) : Optional (M) : Mandatory

About custom location

location is list of instructions (like echo, return...). Do not forget to end all your instructions with ;. You can use a special key to use auth basic. It works in the same way as in nginx_vhost

Upstream management

  • nginx_upstreams: List of dict. An upstream has few keys. See bellow.

Note: Few params are unavailable on old Nginx version. But this role don't put it if your version is too old!

Upstream params

  • params: list of param (hash, zone...)
  • servers: each upstream MUST have at least 1 server

Server params

You must set a path. For example: 192.168.0.50:8080 or unix:/tmp/my.sock.

All this params are optional. You should see Nginx upstream doc.

Auth basic is managed in a separate list. Each auth file can be shared between locations or vhosts.

Each htpasswd has few keys:
