bobsense/nginx-arm64 repository overview

⁠Nginx Dockerfile

The Dockerfile is used to produce a Docker Image for Nginx on ARM64.

⁠Nginx version

1.8.0

⁠How to build the Image

You need to git pull nginx-arm64.git, then execute the following command under the nginx-arm64 folder to create the image bobsense/nginx-arm64,

$ git pull https://github.com/bobsense/nginx-arm64.git
$ cd nginx-arm64
$ docker build -t bobsense/nginx-arm64 .

⁠How to use this Image

⁠Run the image

The typical way to run the image as follows:

$ docker run -d -P --name nginx bobsense/nginx-arm64

You should make sure which port on host is assigned to 80 exposed on nginx container. Type as follows:

$ docker port nginx 80

Then you will get like 0.0.0.0:32772, so 32772 is the one assigned to 80.

Then you can use the web service offered by the nginx container. Just type:

$ curl http://127.0.0.1:32772/index.html

Normally, you are supposed to see output like:

...
<title>Welcome to nginx!<title>
...

⁠Persist files in html and logs

In order to make data in html and logs become independent of the running container, you can do as follows:

$ mkdir -p /tmp/html
$ mkdir -p /tmp/logs
$ docker run -d -P --name nginx \
    -v /tmp/html:/usr/local/nginx/html \
    -v /tmp/logs:/usr/local/nginx/logs \
    bobsense/nginx-arm64

⁠Use your nginx.conf

In order to enable container based on your nginx.conf instead of the default, you can do as follows:

$ docker run -d -P --name nginx \
    -v xxxx/nginx.conf:/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf \
    bobsense/nginx-arm64
