import

import allows you to use configuration from another file or a reusable snippet. It gets replaced with the contents of that file or snippet.

This is a unique directive in that import can appear outside of a server block. In other words, it can appear at the top of a Casketfile where an address would normally be. Like other directives, however, it cannot be used inside of other directives.

Note that the the import path is relative to the Casketfile, not the current working directory.

Syntax

import pattern

• pattern is the file or glob pattern (*) or snippet name to include. Its contents will replace this line, as if that file's contents appeared here to begin with. This value is relative to the file's location. It is an error if a specific file cannot be found, but an empty glob pattern is not an error. Globs can only have one wildcard and does not support `[ ]` patterns.

Examples

Import a shared configuration:

import config/common.conf

Imports any files found in the vhosts folder:

import ../vhosts/*

Import a snippet defined earlier:

import mysnippet
