Detector::Specification::Nginx
Constants
.conf is by far the most common extension for Nginx fragments;
.tmpl/.template files are common in docker-gen and deployment
repositories that render Nginx configs from templates.
Whole-content necessary-condition guard for nginx_shape?: a line can
only match LOCATION_RE if "location" appears in the raw content — or
if a template action is spliced out of the middle of the word
(loc{{x}}ation), which the \{\{ disjunct keeps on the slow path.
Comment stripping only truncates lines, so it can never assemble the
keyword. Skips the per-line walk for the vast majority of .conf /
.tmpl files that carry no location block.
Class methods
The tech name without needing an instance, so the registry can be read off the classes themselves rather than from a parallel list.
Instance methods
Cheap filename-only filter the detector pass uses to skip
detect on files the detector cannot possibly match. The
default true preserves prior behavior (every detector runs on
every file). Override with the same predicate the body of
detect starts with — e.g., filename.ends_with?(".py") for a
Python framework detector — so the detector loop avoids the
detect dispatch on files outside the detector's language.
On large codebases (saleor's 4255 .py files) this lifts ~100
virtual detect calls per file out of the hot loop because
most detectors' inner first-line is exactly this kind of cheap
filename check.
