nginx.vim

Description

Vim plugin for Nginx

Features

The plugin is based on the recent vim-plugin distributed with nginx-1.12.0 and additionally features the following syntax improvements:

• Highlight IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
• Mark insecure ssl_protocols as errors
• Inline template syntax highlight for ERB and Jinja
• Inline syntax highlight for LUA
• Improve integer matching
• Syntax highlighting for proxy_next_upstream options
• Syntax highlighting for sticky options
• Syntax highlighting for upstream server options
• More to come!

Furthermore:

• Remove annoying delimiters, resulting in strange word-boundaries

Snippets

The plugin comes with useful snippets which can be accessed using e.g. vim-snipmate.

Select a decent cipher for your requirements (all of them can provide SSLLabs A+ ratings)

• ciphers-high<tab>: High-security ciphers (elliptic curves), not compatible with IE < 11, OpenSSL-0.9.8, Safari < 7, Android < 4.4
• ciphers-medium<tab>: Medium-security ciphers with good compatibility (No IE6, IE8) but TLSv1 and SHA required
• ciphers-low<tab>: Low-security ciphers (using weak 3DES cipher and TLSv1), but compatible with everything but IE6 and Java6
• ssl-options<tab>: Bootstrap secure SSL options

Example:

ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_ciphers 'ECDH+AESGCM:DH+AESGCM:ECDH+AES256:DH+AES256:ECDH+AES128:DH+AES:ECDH+3DES:DH+3DES:RSA+AESGCM:RSA+AES:RSA+3DES:!aNULL:!MD5:!DSS';

Or add a robots.txt file with robots.txt<tab>:

# Tell bots to not index this site
location /robots.txt {
    default_type text/plain;
    return 200 'User-agent: *\nDisallow: /\n';
}

It also has auto-completion for location and server blocks with location<tab> resp. server<tab>, and many more!
