It is a "free, open-source, high-performance HTTP server and reverse proxy"


Configuration

  • server { }
listen 80;
server_name thedomain.com;
access_log  logs/access.log;
error_log     logs/error.log;
root /home/swin/oaih/dev/public;
index index.php index.html index.htm; 

  • location { }
  • not logging if the site icon does not exists:
location = /favicon.ico {
    log_not_found off;
    access_log off;
}
  • denying a directory:
location = /directory_to_hide {
               deny all;
}
  • allow certain files only to local lan:
location ~* \.(txt|logs)$ {
               allow 192.168.0.0/24;
               deny all;
}
  • block files by extension:
location ~* \.(inc|engine|install|info|module|sh|sql|theme|tpl\.php|xtmpl|Entries|Repository|Root|jar|java|class)$ {
               deny all;
}

FastCGI

location ~ .php$ {
  fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
  fastcgi_index index.php;
  fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
  include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
location ~ .php($|/) {
 set $script $uri;
 set $path_info "";
 if ($uri ~ "^(.+.php)(/.+)") {
   set $script $1;
   set $path_info $2;
 }
 fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
 fastcgi_index index.php; 
 fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$script;
 fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $script;
 fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $path_info;
}

Rewrite rules

  • rewriting every non existent file to index.php
location / {
  if (!-e $request_filename) {
    rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php/$1 last;
  }
}
