If you RTFM and got interested in Nginx design and the way it deals with
its configuration, you would have known that a master process loads the
configuration and spawns workers which only job is to deal with requests.​

So... Changing configuration would mean signaling the master process in
some way...

You could write configuration in a conf.d directory where Nginx loads
*.conf files with a script and then automatically behind signal Nginx to
reload the conf with the same script.

I am deeply sorry to have provided you with a RTFM answer that outraged you..
Please accept my apologies and rest assured that won't occur anymore.
Sometimes silence is golden.
