given:

location /nginx_status {
# Don't break 
    stub_status on;
  access_log off;
  allow 127.0.0.1;
    deny all;
}

we expect:

location /nginx_status {
    # Don't break
    stub_status on;
    access_log off;
    allow 127.0.0.1;
    deny all;
}

but instead we get:

location /nginx_status {
    # Don't break
    stub_status on;
    access_log off;
    allow 127.0.0.1;
    deny all;
    }

and all subsequent lines are aligned to the indentation of the comment with ' in it. Looks like it's trying to parse the comment as an nginx string and then never escaping the comment alignment? Probably related to #11.

I think the transfer of the review to a new position should occur on the line above or not occur quite

add_header alt-svc 'h3=":443"; ma=86400, h3-29=":443"; ma=86400' always;

will be break into 3 lines and like this:

add_header alt-svc 'h3=":443";
ma=86400, h3-29=":443";
ma=86400' always;

Though it passes the nginx conf test but SSL will break.

server_name "~^(?<tag>[0-9a-f]{8}\-[0-9a-f]{4}\-[0-9a-f]{4}\-[0-9a-f]{4}\-[0-9a-f]{12})\.a\.b\.com$";

will be splitted into multiple line

E.g. if the config file contains a german "für", it will crash with an encoding error.

Hi, this is a feature request for an option to print the formatted contents to stdout without saving them to a file. This would allow to use this program with formatting tools that work with stdin/stdout such as vim-autoformat. The stdin can already be handled by passing /dev/stdin as the filename. Should be relatively simple to implement, if you want, I could whip up a pull request.

• http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_headers_module.html

Input data:

http {
    server {
        listen 80;
        # add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=3600; includeSubDomains";
        add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=3600; includeSubDomains";
    }
}

Output result

http {
    server {
        listen 80;
        # add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=3600; includeSubDomains";
        add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=3600;
        includeSubDomains";
    }
}

Other NGINX config formatter (AWK): https://github.com/lovette/nginx-tools/tree/master/nginx-minify-conf

eg.

location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}

after formatted will look like this

location ~ /
\
.ht {
deny all;
#}

Multiline log_format does not correction the alignment

Input data:

http {
    log_format  main  '.......'
                     '....';
}

Output result

http {
    log_format  main  '.......'
    '....';
}

nginxbeautifier.com seems to be offline. would be great if there was an online version of this for easy use without installing local packages.

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    server_name localhost;
    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-User-Authorization "Internal ${cookie_access_token}";
    }
}

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    server_name localhost;
    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-User-Authorization "Internal $ {
            cookie_access_token
        }
        ";
    }
}

nginx: [emerg] invalid variable name in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:63
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

This (it comes from sample nginx magento snippet)

gzip_types
    text/plain
    text/css
    text/js
    text/xml
    text/javascript
    application/javascript
    application/x-javascript
    application/json
    application/xml
    application/xml+rss
    image/svg+xml;

is converted to

gzip_types
text/plain
text/css
text/js
text/xml
text/javascript
application/javascript
application/x-javascript
application/json
application/xml
application/xml+rss
image/svg+xml;

Could it format such multiline values the padded way?

The tool doesnt handle nginx vars${variable}nor jinja2 templating variable {{ variable }}

At least #1 should be fixable

Any issues with this being refactored to work as a library? I'm working on a project which uses this but at the moment which uses nginxfmt.py but I'd ideally like to reference this as a pip package instead, or at the very least a git package link.

Input

location ~ "\.pagespeed\.([a-z]\.)?[a-z]{2}\.[^.]{10}\.[^.]+" {
  add_header "" "";
}

Output

location ~ "\.pagespeed\.([a-z]\.)?[a-z] {
    2
}
\.[^.] {
    10
}
\.[^.]+" {
    add_header "" "";
}

Reported in NixOS/nixpkgs#57979 (comment):

The following configuration:

location /example { allow 192.168.0.0/16; deny all; }

results in

  location /example {
    allow 192.168.0.0/16;
    deny all;
  }
  ;

the trailing ; will produce an error message in nginx like this:

апр 08 14:55:45 web.elven.pw systemd[1]: Starting Nginx Web Server...
апр 08 14:55:45 web.elven.pw pnzhwc1q1is8vbdkg34ksicqq9jh5chc-unit-script-nginx-pre-start[2430]: nginx: [emerg] unexpected ";" in /nix/store/glvppaxv9gqg9vj179ph9rmj8yg41d72-nginx.conf:151

The nginx version is 1.14.2.

May be add 4 space after proxy_set_header for improve readability?
Before

    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

After

    proxy_set_header    Host $host;
    proxy_set_header    X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-Host $host;
    proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-Server $host;
    proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header    X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

It would be cool if while formatting it could use editorconfig settings.

No need special treatment for variable ${} , because any expression with "{" should be enclosed in single or double quotes.

So, we just need to substitute { and } in single or double quotes.

Normalization inside comments is required, if possible, after position alignment.

Input data:

http {
    #log_format  main  "......."
    #                  "....";
#                      '....';
     #             "....";
  #                    '....';
}

Output result

http {
    #log_format  main  "......."
    #                  "....";
    #                      '....'; < unalignment
    #             "...."; < unalignment
    #                    '....'; < unalignment
}
