Using Vagrant with SaltStack, how do I start nginx after providing custom configuration

Question

I have a Vagrant boxset up to provision with salt. When I do a fresh vagrant up (after a vagrant destroy), nginx defaults to port 80 and the default welcome page, despite not being configured to. I can fix it by manually running sudo nginx -s reload inside the guest, but I would prefer not to use a manual workaround.

Here's my salt/roots/salt/nginx/init.sls file:

nginx:
  pkg:
    - installed

nginx run:
  service.running:
    - name: nginx
    - enable: True
    - watch:
      - file: /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
      - file: /etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca
  require:
    - file: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/dotmanca
    - file: /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
    - pkg: nginx

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:
  file:
    - managed
    - source: salt://nginx/nginx.conf
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644

/etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca:
  file:
    - managed
    - source: salt://nginx/dotmanca.conf
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644
  require:
    - pkg: nginx

/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/dotmanca:
  file.symlink:
    - target: /etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644
  require:
    - file: /etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca

/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:
  file.absent:
    - name: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
  require:
    - pkg: nginx

The nxginx server is installed and runs properly after provisioning, and the configuration files show up in the correct location.

I need to either reload the config in nginx after my custom files get placed, or somehow hold off running the nginx service until the files are in place.

Apparently, I needed to know more about the require bits. I had them where states should go, and not under the states themselves.

My file should have looked like this:

nginx:
  pkg:
    - installed

nginx_run:
  service.running:
    - name: nginx
    - enable: True
    - watch:
      - file: /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
      - file: /etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca
    - require:
      - file: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/dotmanca
      - file: /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
      - pkg: nginx

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:
  file:
    - managed
    - source: salt://nginx/nginx.conf
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644

/etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca:
  file:
    - managed
    - source: salt://nginx/dotmanca.conf
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644
    - require:
      - pkg: nginx

/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/dotmanca:
  file.symlink:
    - target: /etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644
    - require:
      - file: /etc/nginx/sites-available/dotmanca

/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:
  file.absent:
    - name: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
    - require:
      - pkg: nginx
