ajoergensen/nginx-libressl repository overview

⁠nginx⁠ built with LibreSSL⁠

This repository was originally forked from https://github.com/nginx-modules/docker-nginx-libressl⁠

Most of the build process has been reused from their image.

⁠Features

• Uses Alpine Linux⁠ as base
• PCRE with JIT enabled
• HTTP/2.0 (+NPN) support
• Async I/O using threads support
• Cloudflare Dynamic TLS records⁠ patch
• Brotli⁠ compression support
• ngx_headers_more⁠ module from OpenResty⁠
• Cloudflare's HPACK⁠ patch for full HPACK⁠ header compression support.
• Cloudflare's zlib⁠
• Nginx Sticky Module⁠ - A nginx module to add a sticky cookie to be always forwarded to the same upstream server (see link for usage information)½

Update 2018-01-19: I have removed the Cloudflare SPDY patch since it has now been deprecated by Cloudflare⁠.

Update 2018-09-26: SPDY has been re-introduced thanks to the nginx mega patch⁠

⁠Usage

docker run --rm --name nginx -v ./htdocs:/var/www -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -d ajoergensen/nginx-libressl:tag

Available tags are stable and mainline

⁠Environment

• PUID: Change the uid of the user running nginx
• PGID: Change the gid of the user running nginx
• CHOWN_WWWDIR: Enable/disable the change of ownership of /var/www to $PUID:$PGID, defaults to TRUE. Note, if /var/www read only this variable will always be FALSE
• WORKER_PROCESSES: Change the value of nginx worker_processes, defaults to auto.
• NGINX_CLIENT_MAX_BODY_SIZE: Set client_max_body_size, default is 50M.
• SERVER_TOKENS: Controls server_tokens. Set to on or off. Default is off
• CUSTOM_SERVER: Sets the Server: header to a custom value. Default is undefined.

⁠Other

Though not defined as a volume, I recommend mapping a folder to /etc/nginx/conf.d to store your vhost definitions.

This image works great with docker-gen⁠ and docker-letsencrypt-nginx-proxy-companion⁠ (as a drop-in replacement for the nginx-proxy image)
