⁠Changes

• Turn on SPDY support for SSL.

• The image set client_max_body_size to 100m.

• Remove client_max_body_size from Dockfile.

⁠TODO

If you want to change client_max_body_size, please mount directory /etc/nginx/vhost.d/ to host, then create a file named VIRTUAL_HOST.conf for specified container.

web:
  image: wordpress
  links:
    - db:db
  environment:
    - VIRTUAL_HOST=example.com
    - VIRTUAL_PORT=80

You can specify a path on the host machine (==HOST:CONTAINER==) via volumes.

conffile:
  image: busybox
  command: echo "conf store"
  volumes:
    - /path/to/vhost:/etc/nginx/vhost.d

Then mount it it web.

web:
  ...
  volumes_from:
    - conffile
  ...

Finally, create a file example.com.conf in /path/to/vhost, such as we want to set custom client_max_body_size for example.com. And restart nginx container to apply new configuration.

$ echo 'client_max_body_size 100m;' > /path/to/vhost/example.com/conf
