Lab 2 - Configuring Nginx

Create configurations

1. Create .docker/nginx/etc directory

   mkdir -p .docker/nginx/etc directory
   

2. Copy config files from containers

Connect to the container

  docker-compose run deploy bash     

Copy the configurations from in container

  cp /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf /app/.docker/nginx/etc/vhost.conf

Don't forget to exit from the container

 root@deploy:/app# exit
 [webuser@localhost magento-ce]$  

Customize Configuration

We will be adding a http header that should be visible in the front-end

In .docker/nginx/etc/vhost.conf edit in the PHP Entry Point (near line 142)

  # PHP entry point for main application
  location ~ ^/(index|get|static|errors/report|errors/404|errors/503|health_check)\.php$ {
     
     # Add the following line
     add_header X-hello "Hello World";

Add the docker-compose.override.yml

Add a docker-compose.override.yml file to the root directory of the project.

version: '2.1'
web:
  volumes:
    - ./.docker/nginx/etc/vhost.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf

Restart the Web Container

Restart the nginx container

  docker-compose restart web

Clear the cache

  docker-compose run deploy bin/magento cache:flush

Check the Configuration

Using your web browser look at the headers for any page.

Response Headers should have the following:

 X-hello: Hello World
