Nginx

NGINX is open source software for web serving, reverse proxying, caching, load balancing, media streaming, and more. It started out as a web server designed for maximum performance and stability. In addition to its HTTP server capabilities, NGINX can also function as a proxy server for email (IMAP, POP3, and SMTP) and a reverse proxy and load balancer for HTTP, TCP, and UDP servers.

Install Nginx Using Docker Compose

  1. Before setting everything else, create a directory for Nginx home mount. Ensure that the directory exists and appropriate permission have been granted.

    $ mkdir -vp ~/docker/nginx/{data,certs,server_blocks}
$ chown -R 1001:root ~/docker/nginx

  2. Modify the .env file, you can fine tune these configurations to meet your requirements.

    NGINX_IMAGE=bitnami/nginx:1.23
NGINX_HOME=~/docker/nginx
NGINX_PORT_8080=80

  3. Make sure you are in the same directory as nginx.yml and start Nginx:

    $ docker-compose -f nginx.yml up -d

  4. If something else goes wrong, for more detailed tutorial can be found on the Bitnami Nginx
