nginx-docker-container's Introduction

nginx (Docker image)

Built-from-source container image of the NGINX HTTP server

Available at ricardbejarano/nginx.

Features

Super tiny (glibc-based is ~13MB and musl-based is ~12.3MB)
Built from source, including libraries
Built from scratch, see the Filesystem section below for an exhaustive list of the image's contents
Included TLS1.3 protocol support (with OpenSSL)
Reduced attack surface (no bash, no UNIX tools, no package manager...)

Building

To build the glibc-based image:

$ git clone https://github.com/ricardbejarano/nginx
$ cd nginx
$ docker build -t nginx:glibc -f glibc/Dockerfile .

To build the musl-based image:

$ git clone https://github.com/ricardbejarano/nginx
$ cd nginx
$ docker build -t nginx:musl -f musl/Dockerfile .

Filesystem

The images' contents are:

`glibc`

Based on the glibc implementation of libc.
