server_name is the string corresponding to the server name (eg: "example.com").

root_snippets is a list of snippets/templates (To be determine) containing configurations for the http server.

locations is a dictionnary of location block. location (the key of an item) is the location (eg, "/"), template is the jinja template defining the contant of the location block. Other variables can be added to the location block depending on the template used.

Inside the templates, server_name is accessed with {{ item.key }}, en variables of the server block with {{ item.value.varname }}.

Inside templates of a location, in addition to the variables of the server block, the variables of the location block can be accessed with {{ location.value.varname }}, and the value of location with {{ location.key }}.
