Role Variables

see defaults/main.yml, also:

nginx_pagespeed_enabled: false
nginx_pagespeed_version: 1.11.33.2
nginx_version: 1.10.1
nginx_worker_processes: 2

Most of the variables are self-explanatory, but nginx_build_options deserves an explanation, as it is the primary role of this role. nginx_build_options is a dictionary that passes each item as --=, and keys with no value are treated as switches.:

nginx_build_options:
  conf-path: "{{ nginx_conf_path }}"
  error-log-path: "{{ nginx_log_path }}/error.log"
  http-client-body-temp-path: "{{ nginx_lib_path }}/body"
  http-fastcgi-temp-path: "{{ nginx_lib_path }}/fastcgi"
  http-proxy-temp-path: "{{ nginx_lib_path }}/proxy"
  http-scgi-temp-path: "{{ nginx_lib_path }}/scgi"
  http-uwsgi-temp-path: "{{ nginx_lib_path }}/uwsgi"
  http-log-path: "{{ nginx_log_path }}/access.log"
  lock-path: /var/lock/nginx.lock
  pid-path: /run/nginx.pid
  prefix: "{{ nginx_prefix }}"
