[Git4Future]

i have already add my config in config.yml ,but when i reload apisix, i can't find it in nginx.conf

config-default.yml
lua_shared_dict:
ext-plugin: 1m
mydict: 10m

Hi @Git4Future Where do you add your config?

You should put it under custom_lua_shared_dict

Refer:

apisix/conf/config-default.yaml

Lines 231 to 232 in 66f66d4

	#custom_lua_shared_dict: # add custom shared cache to nginx.conf
	# ipc_shared_dict: 100m # custom shared cache, format: `cache-key: cache-size`

Hello there, please use custom_lua_shared_dict instead of lua_shared_dict, and make sure you indent it correctly.
It's hard to figure out what's going on in your case because of the description.
Normally, you should define your own shared dict in config.yaml, as follows

...
nginx_config:
    ...
    custom_lua_shared_dict:
        mydict: 10m
...

Thanks a lot, i put my own config under lua_shared_dict by mistake !
the description of config-default.yml is confused ，It took me a lot of time to figure out,until i find the key propertie in /apisix/apisix/cli/ngx_tpl.lua and /apisix/apisix/cli/ops.lua

Glad to see the problem is solved, 🥳🥳

config-default.yaml is more like a fallback configuration template, APISIX cli tool will merge config.yaml and config-default.yaml as the final read-in configuration, and what is defined in config.yaml will take effect first.
