Question Nginx block robots

[sebgonzes]

Hello @IgorG

I have seen your post about this : Instruction - Blocking extra bots using nginx but I don't found how we had to put this to :
- Not break plesk nginx configuration
- Apply this to all domains

nginx.conf have not "server" section.
/etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d files are dinamic files...

Thanks

Yes, but in server section, you can see line like:

include "/var/www/vhosts/system/test.tld/conf/vhost_nginx.conf";

And when you add code from the article in "Additional nginx directives" for your site, it will be added to this included /var/www/vhosts/system/test.tld/conf/vhost_nginx.conf file and loaded in corresponding server section of your site.

Ok but there is no way to do it globally?
for now I do it with apache with an file in /etc/httpd/conf.d with

<Directory "/var/www/vhosts/*/httpdocs">
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "spbot" bad_bot
.....
Deny from env=bad_bot
</Directory>

Do it by apache is worst that by nginx, but need an global solution, not an individual way...

But you can add it to "nginx directives" of your service plan and sync all subscriptions with it.

Ok but in our case, we don't use plan as each user have these own limits. If there is no other way, I will try to do it with an script...

Use something like

# for filename in `find /var/www/vhosts/system/*/conf/ -name vhost_nginx.conf`; do echo $filename; echo "......................" > $filename; echo ''; done
