You can do it with logrotate like in this example /etc/logrotate.d/nginx

/var/logs/nginx/*.log {
missingok
notifempty
sharedscripts
postrotate
test ! -f /var/run/nginx.pid || kill -USR1 `cat /var/run/nginx.pid`
endscript

}

And you might want to have a look at http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxLogRotation

Best,
Emil
