Have nginx access_log and error_log log to STDOUT and STDERR of master process

Question

Is there a way to have the master process log to STDOUT STDERR instead of to a file?

It seems that you can only pass a filepath to the access_log directive:

In docker image of PHP-FPM, i've see such approach:

# cat /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.d/docker.conf
[global]
error_log = /proc/self/fd/2

[www]
; if we send this to /proc/self/fd/1, it never appears
access.log = /proc/self/fd/2
