How to locally test nginx on multiple domains/subdomains at the same time?

Question

Nginx

Is it possible to somehow practice locally setting up nginx configs, for example - several sites at the same time, or subdomains? other than localhost. Can I specify subdomains for localhost? How convenient to train?

Answer 1

$ nano /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.1.1	user-UBUNTU

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

127.0.0.1   domain.dev
127.0.0.1   api.domain.dev
127.0.0.1   test.domain.dev

And configure configs taking into account *.dev domains
