location doesn't match subdomains. server_name matches subdomains. Use
different server{}s for different things.

make.

Or m4. Or a config file generator of your choice.

nginx doesn't care how your .conf file came about, it just cares about
what is in the .conf file when it is loaded.

Don't worry about duplication or repetition in the generated output
file. If you want to worry about repetition, do it in your input format.

Good luck,
