⁠Introduction

Dockerfile to create a NGINX⁠ container image who is SPA ready and has GZip enabled.

⁠Getting started

⁠Image Pull

docker pull credija/nginx:lts

⁠Quickstart

Start NGINX using:

docker run --name nginx-credija -d --restart=always \
  --publish 8080:80 \
  -m 256MB \
  credija/nginx:lts

Also, if you want to overwrite and provide your own config file use this:

docker run --name nginx-credija -d --restart=always \
  --publish 8080:80 \
  -m 256MB \
  --volume /opt/your-nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf \
  credija/nginx:lts

Alternatively, you can use the sample docker-compose.yml⁠ file to start the container using Docker Compose⁠

Point your browser to http://localhost:8080⁠ and follow the setup procedure to complete the installation.

⁠Maintenance

⁠Upgrading

To upgrade to newer releases:

1. Download the updated Docker image:

docker pull credija/nginx:{version}

1. Stop the currently running image:

docker stop nginx-credija

1. Remove the stopped container

docker rm -v nginx-credija

1. Start the updated image

docker run -name nginx-credija -d \
  [OPTIONS] \
  credija/nginx:{version}
