Nginx multiple domain directives - php

Question

I'm using Nginx for a PHP project. Here is what I do in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default:
server {
server_name domain_a.com;
include /etc/nginx/main.conf; // listen, php directives, etc.
location ~ (.*)\.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param HTTPS off;
}
}
server {
server_name domain_b.com;
include /etc/nginx/main.conf;
location ~ (.*)\.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param HTTPS off;
// Specific to this domain
auth_basic "Authentication";
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
}
}
/etc/nginx/main.conf
listen 80;
client_max_body_size 5M;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
root /var/www/web;
I have a lot of repetition in this code : The two location block could be merge in one for the two domains. I think I could use a if statement to add my specific code for domain_b but it's cleary not a recommanded way according to the documentation http://wiki.nginx.org/IfIsEvil
Do you have idea how I can do to respect the DRY concept ?
Thx,

For me I create a folder in my conf and call it includes for example and then you can include this where ever you want, for example
# /etc/nginx/includes/php.conf
location ~ (.*)\.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param HTTPS off;
}
Then in your configurations do something like this
server {
server_name domain_a.com;
include /etc/nginx/main.conf; // listen, php directives, etc.
include /etc/nginx/includes/php.conf;
}
server {
server_name domain_b.com;
include /etc/nginx/main.conf;
include /etc/nginx/includes/php.conf;
auth_basic "Authentication";
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
}
}
