NGINX

Overview#

We built a customized NGINX image, based on the official open source version and containing a consul-template and an NGINX server itself, to satisfy the following requirements:

  • Dynamically updating the upstream directive to point to available oxAuth/oxTrust/oxShibboleth/oxPassport containers
  • Restarting the NGINX process when its configuration is changed (without restarting the container)

Note the following points: - This container relies on Consul - Kubernetes deployment can omit this container and use NGINX Ingress instead

Versions#

  • Stable: gluufederation/nginx:4.0.1_02.
  • Unstable: gluufederation/nginx:4.0.1_dev.

Refer to Changelog for details on new features, bug fixes, or older releases.

Environment Variables#

The following environment variables are supported by the container:
