I'm trying and failing to do something like this in my nginx config.

env WSHOST;
...
set_by_lua_block $wshost { os.getenv("WSHOST") }
proxy_pass "http://" + $wshost;

Problem is that 'env' can't be used here because we're not at the top level of the .conf file.

nginx: [emerg] "env" directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default.conf:1

Ideally I'd be able to have a local version of nginx.conf in /var/wwww/html/conf, as well as the individual sites-enabled files. Does that suggestion make any sense?

(Also http_lua_module isn't included, but I guess I can use perl instead...)
