Some regex gymnastics in the morning (not recommended):

>>> print(nginx_conf)

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  dev.{project_url};

    location / {
        proxy_pass  http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        include     /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
    }

    location /media  {
        alias 
/home/mariano/PycharmProjects/{project_name}/{project_name}/media;
        expires 30d;

    }
    location /static  {
        alias 
/home/mariano/PycharmProjects/{project_name}/{project_name}/static;
        expires 30d;
    }

    error_page   500 502  503 504  /50x.html;
    location =  /50x.html {
        root    html;
        }
}
>>> fmt = re.compile(r"((\{)(?!\w)|(?<!\w)(\}))").sub(r"\1\1", nginx_conf)
>>> print(fmt)

server {{
    listen       80;
    server_name  dev.{project_url};

    location / {{
        proxy_pass  http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        include     /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
    }}

    location /media  {{
        alias

    error_page   500 502  503 504  /50x.html;
    location =  /50x.html {{
        root    html;
        }}
}}
>>> print(fmt.format(project_name="MYPROJECT", project_url="MYPROJECT.COM"))

server {
    listen       80;

    location /media  {

    location /static  {
