NGINX Webserver Docker Image

mwaeckerlin/nginx is a simple nginx webserver in less than 6MB. High secure: No shell means less risks for backdoors, just nginx running as unprivileged user.

If you need PHP, use mwaeckerlin/php-fpm. The image forwards php files to port 9000 of host php-fpm, if that host is available.

Info: LDAP has been removed and will be implemented later in mwaeckerlin/ldap-auth.

Image size: ca. 7.17MB (depends on parent image sizes and changes)

Port

Exposes nginx on port 8080.

Configuration

add additional configuration directly to /etc/nginx
should you need ssl, create /etc/nginx/dhparam.pem, see example in mwaeckerlin/reverse-proxy
