Avoid duplicate nginx server definition

Is there a way to join two almost identical server definitions into one but still have different proxy_pass value which depends on server name?

server_name and proxy_pass are the only differences between those two.

Tried with

proxy_pass http://$server_name:8080;

but no success.

server {
    listen              443 ssl;
    listen              [::]:443 ssl;
    server_name         localhost thevegcat.lan;
    root                e:/projects/TheVegCat/src/main/resources/static/;
    ssl_certificate     e:/projects/TheVegCat/ssl/CA/localhost/localhost.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key e:/projects/TheVegCat/ssl/CA/localhost/localhost.decrypted.key;
    add_header          Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=10368000; includeSubDomains" always;
    gzip                on;
    gzip_min_length     512;
    gzip_proxied        expired no-cache no-store private auth;
    gzip_types          text/plain application/xml text/css application/javascript application/json;
    location / {
        add_header      Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=10368000; includeSubDomains" always;
        proxy_pass      http://localhost:8080;
    }
    location ~ ^(.+)\.(ico|png|xml|json)$ {
        expires         1y;
        alias           e:/projects/TheVegCat/src/main/resources/static/favicon/;
        try_files       $1.$2 $1.$2/;
    }
}

server {
    listen              443 ssl;
    listen              [::]:443 ssl;
    server_name         veganskivodic.thevegcat.lan;
    root                e:/projects/TheVegCat/src/main/resources/static/;
    ssl_certificate     e:/projects/TheVegCat/ssl/CA/localhost/localhost.crt;

    gzip_types          text/plain application/xml text/css application/javascript application/json;
    location / {

        proxy_pass      http://veganskivodic.thevegcat.lan:8080;
    }
    location ~ ^(.+)\.(ico|png|xml|json)$ {

Put shared conf in one file in your nginx directory and include it:

shared:

listen              443 ssl;
listen              [::]:443 ssl;
root                e:/projects/TheVegCat/src/main/resources/static/;
ssl_certificate     e:/projects/TheVegCat/ssl/CA/localhost/localhost.crt;
ssl_certificate_key e:/projects/TheVegCat/ssl/CA/localhost/localhost.decrypted.key;
add_header          Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=10368000; includeSubDomains" always;
gzip                on;
gzip_min_length     512;
gzip_proxied        expired no-cache no-store private auth;
gzip_types          text/plain application/xml text/css application/javascript application/json;
location ~ ^(.+)\.(ico|png|xml|json)$ {
    expires         1y;
    alias           e:/projects/TheVegCat/src/main/resources/static/favicon/;
    try_files       $1.$2 $1.$2/;
}

servers.conf:

server {
    server_name         localhost thevegcat.lan;
    include shared;
    location / {
        add_header      Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=10368000; includeSubDomains" always;
        proxy_pass      http://localhost:8080;
    }
}

server {
    server_name         veganskivodic.thevegcat.lan;
    include shared;
    location / {
        add_header      Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=10368000; includeSubDomains" always;
        proxy_pass      http://veganskivodic.thevegcat.lan:8080;
    }
}

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
