funkygibbon/nginx-pagespeed

Nginx + Pagespeed + OpenSSL

!Nginx 1.17.4 !ngx_pagespeed latest-stable !OpenSSL 1.1.1d

Built on https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/funkygibbon/ubuntu/, a lightly modified Ubuntu Xenial https://phusion.github.io/baseimage-docker/.

bash
docker run -v "/path/to/www:/app/www" -p "80:80" -p "443:443" funkygibbon/nginx-pagespeed

Files are served from /app/www/, SSL certificates are generated in /etc/nginx/ssl, /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/* is searched for virtual hosts.

Nginx is configured with sane security defaults for out-of-the-box webservice, highly configurable by environment variables and is compiled from mainline source.

Service configuration via ENV

Nginx is configurable via environment variables, which are re-applied to the configuration on service start, so you can adjust server parameters at container start with:

bash
docker run -e "UPLOAD_MAX_SIZE=50M" funkygibbon/nginx-pagespeed

A minimal docker-compose.yml file:

yml
version: '2'
services:
  app:
   image: funkygibbon/nginx-pagespeed
    ports:
      - "80:80"
      - "443:443"
    volumes:
      - /path/to/www:/app/www

Variables

Security

Nginx is compiled from mainline source according to Ubuntu compile flags, with the following modifications:

• OpenSSL 1.1.1d sources - [***]
• Google Pagespeed nginx module - https://github.com/apache/incubator-pagespeed-ngx/releases
• headers-more nginx module - https://github.com/openresty/headers-more-nginx-module/tags
• http_ssi_module and http_autoindex_module disabled

HTTPS is configured using modern sane defaults, including

• Mozilla's intermediate profile - see [***]
• SSLv2 and SSLv3 are disabled, TLSv1 TLSv2 and TLSv3 are enabled
• Automatic generation of a 2048bit DH parameter file if one is not provided
• Self-signed SSL certificates are generated on first container start, and stored in /etc/nginx/ssl/default.key /etc/nginx/ssl/default.crt. To install your own certificates I recommend bind-mounting ssl and sites-enabled folders.
• @todo LetsEncrypt!

On service start

• nginx user is set to ${APP_USER:-$DEFAULT_APP_USER} (default is nginx)
• creates user and group from {APP_USER:-$DEFAULT_APP_USER}:${APP_GROUP:-$DEFAULT_APP_GROUP}, some sanity checks for matching UID / GID in the event that user/group already exists
• if ${CHOWN_APP_DIR:-$DEFAULT_CHOWN_APP_DIR} is true, chown -R ${APP_USER:-$DEFAULT_APP_USER}:${APP_GROUP:-$DEFAULT_APP_GROUP} /app/www (default false)
• worker_processes is set to the number of available processor cores and adjusts /etc/nginx/nginx.conf to match, up to a maximum number of cores ${NGINX_MAX_WORKER_PROCESSES:-$DEFAULT_MAX_WORKER_PROCESSES}
• client_max_body_size is set to ${UPLOAD_MAX_SIZE:-$DEFAULT_UPLOAD_MAX_SIZE}
