New nginx-to-OpenLiteSpeed migration script

[Lisa Clarke]

Help us test: single-file nginx-to-OpenLiteSpeed migration script

We've been working on a Python script that automates the migration from nginx to OpenLiteSpeed, and we'd love to get some real-world testing on it.

What it does:

• Parses your nginx config (single file or full directory, including conf.d, sites-enabled, etc.)
• Generates OLS global config and per-vhost configs
• Handles virtual hosts, rewrite rules, PHP handlers, SSL, ACLs, and proxy_pass

Why we think you'll like it:

• Single file, no dependencies, just Python 3.6+
• Preview mode by default. Runs completely dry until you add --apply
• --revert undoes everything the script wrote, so there's no risk in trying it

How to try it (no download needed):

python3 <( curl -sk https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Code-Egg/ols-migrator/refs/heads/main/nginx_to_ols.py )

We're especially interested in hearing from anyone with complex configs — lots of vhosts, custom rewrite rules, non-standard setups, that kind of thing. Even if it fails, that's useful. Just let us know what you threw at it!
