nginx Windows: setting up sites-available configs

问题:

I'm trying to set up Nginx on my Windows development environment. I can't find how to create something similar to "sites-enabled" on Linux where Nginx would look for (links to) active virtual host configurations.

Is there a way to do something similar with a directory with shortcuts to the actual configuration files and Nginx scanning that directory? Or is there another way to hook up a virtual host configuration other than copying the host configuration to nginx.conf?

回答1:

The "sites-enabled" approach as used by some Linux packages of nginx utilize include directive, which understands shell wildcards, see http://nginx.org/r/include. You may use it in your own config as well, e.g.

http {
    ...
    include /path/to/sites/*.conf;
}

Note though that such approach might be very confusing (in particular, it would be hard to tell which server{} is the default one unless you use default_server explicitly).

In windows you have to give full path of the directory where the config files are located. There are two files to update: nginx.conf, which tells nginx where to find web sites, and localhost.conf, which is the configuration for a web site.

It is assumed that nginx is installed in C:\nginx. If the installation directory is at another path, you will have to update that path accordingly, wherever it appears in the following two configuration files.

nginx.conf

Location: C:\nginx\conf

worker_processes  1;
events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}
http {
    include       mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;
    #to read external configuration.
    include "C:/nginx/conf/sites-enabled/*.conf";
}

localhost.conf

Location: C:\nginx\conf\sites-enabled

server {
        listen       80;
        server_name  localhost;
        location / {
            root   html;
            index  index.html index.htm;
        }
        error_page   500 502 503 504  /50x.html;
        location = /50x.html {
            root   html;
        }
}

The following worked for me but only AFTER I moved my main nginx exe folder from c:/Program Files (x86)/nginx-1.7.0 to c:/nginx-1.7.0 (because I think it doesn't handle spaces in file paths well):

http {
    ...
    include "f:/code/mysite/dev-ops/nginx/dev/mysite.conf";
}

You can include your config with a relative path in your nginx.config (the relative path is just the path of the config file itself in contrast to the logs path for example):

http {
  include       mime.types;
  default_type  application/octet-stream;
  include       ../sites-enabled/*.conf;
  ...
}
