ifullgaz/base-nginx repository overview

⁠NGINX base image

A base image to build nginx docker images fast.

The image sets up log rotation, upstream and periodic server restart. The server defines upstream by default to be php-fpm:9000.

Check it out on GitHub⁠!

⁠Build

For local build, use for instance:

docker build -t base-nginx:alpine-slim . 

For docker hub build, use:

docker build -t ifullgaz/base-nginx:alpine-slim . 

To upload the docker hub build to docker hub, use (providing you have the appropriate permissions):

docker push ifullgaz/base-nginx:alpine-slim

⁠Usage

1] Use the FROM tag at the top of the Dockerfile, such as:

FROM ifullgaz/base-nginx:alpine-slim

2] Copy any site definition files to /etc/nginx/sites-available/. For example:

COPY ./docker/nginx/sites/* /etc/nginx/sites-available/

3] Should the upstream destination be different from the default, the following lines may be added:

ARG PHP_UPSTREAM_CONTAINER=php-fpm
ARG PHP_UPSTREAM_PORT=9000
RUN echo "upstream php-upstream { server ${PHP_UPSTREAM_CONTAINER}:${PHP_UPSTREAM_PORT}; }" > /etc/nginx/conf.d/upstream.conf
