默认就是这两个配置文件，http 部分是关于 http 部分的配置，server 是关于服务器的配置，location 是关于路由的配置，location 后面的 ~ 表示路径使用正则匹配，区分大小写。

常用案例：

    location ~ .*\.(jpg|png|gif)$ {
        gzip off;#关闭压缩
        root /data/www/images;
    }

    location ~ .*\.(html|js|css)$ {
        gzip on; #启用压缩
        gzip_min_length 1k;    #只压缩超过1K的文件
        gzip_http_version 1.1; #启用gzip压缩所需的HTTP最低版本
        gzip_comp_level 9;     #压缩级别，压缩比率越高，文件被压缩的体积越小
        gzip_types  text/css application/javascript;#进行压缩的文件类型
        root /data/www/html;
    }

    location ~ ^/download {
        gzip_static on; #启用压缩
        tcp_nopush on;  # 不要着急发，攒一波再发
        root /data/www; # 注意此处目录是`/data/www`而不是`/data/www/download`
