nginx-lua

 

 

Dockerised Nginx, with Lua module, built from source

The docker image is based on the manual compilation instructions at ...

http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#Installation

Useful for those who want Nginx with Lua but don't want to use OpenResty

Usage

1. Create your own Dockerfile ...

   FROM danday74/nginx-lua
   COPY /your/nginx.conf /nginx/conf/nginx.conf
   

2. Add this location block to your nginx.conf file

   location /hellolua {
       content_by_lua '
           ngx.header["Content-Type"] = "text/plain";
           ngx.say("hello world");
       ';
   }
   

   If you don't have an nginx.conf file then use the conf file provided in the github repo

   The conf file provided is the default generated conf file with the above location block added

3. Build your docker image

4. Run your docker container - Remember to use -p YOUR_PORT:80 in your docker run statement

5. Visit http://localhost:YOUR_PORT/hellolua

Automated

The master branch on the github repo is watched by an automated docker build

Which builds docker image danday74/nginx-lua on push to master

On success, the docker build triggers the docker repo's webhooks (if any)
