How to Use

It `s simple, just need to run a new container:

$ docker run -idt --name <NAME> -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 9100:9100 mohsenmottaghi/docker-openresty-prometheus:<TAG> 

NGINX Exporter

we use prometheus.lua script as nginx exporter. for use this script we have prometheus.conf file in nginx/conf.d directory that will set the lua script values and for location on serving metrics we use metrics.conf file and serve /metrics by default.

OpenRasty Document

Supported tags and respective Dockerfile links

• centos, (centos/Dockerfile)
• trusty, (centos/Dockerfile)
• jessie, (centos/Dockerfile)

The following "flavors" are built from source and are intended for more advanced and custom usage, caveat emptor:

• alpine, (alpine/Dockerfile)
• bionic, (bionic/Dockerfile)
• xenial, (xenial/Dockerfile)
• stretch, (stretch/Dockerfile)

Starting with 1.13.6.1, releases are tagged with <openresty-version>-<image-version>-<flavor>. The latest image-version will also be tagged <openresty-version>-<flavor>. The HEAD of the master branch is also labeled plainly as <flavor>. The builds are managed by Travis-CI and Appveyor (for Windows images).

Starting with 1.15.8.1, there are also -nosse42 image flavors for systems which do not support SSE 4.2 (e.g. older systems and embedded systems). They are built with -mno-sse4.2 appended to the build arg RESTY_LUAJIT_OPTIONS. It is highly recommended NOT to use these if your system supports SSE 4.2 because the CRC32 instruction dramatically improves large string performance. These are only for built-from-source flavors, e.g. 1.15.8.1-3-bionic-nosse42, 1.15.8.1-3-alpine-nosse42, 1.15.8.1-3-alpine-fat-nosse42.

It is highly recommended that you use the upstream-based images for best support. For best stability, pin your images to the full tag, for example 1.15.8.1-3-bionic.

Description

docker-openresty is Docker tooling for OpenResty (https://www.openresty.org).

Docker is a container management platform.

OpenResty is a full-fledged web application server by bundling the standard nginx core, lots of 3rd-party nginx modules, as well as most of their external dependencies.

Usage

If you are happy with the build defaults, then you can use the openresty image from the Docker Hub. The image tags available there are listed at the top of this README.

docker run [options] openresty/openresty:buster-fat

[options] would be things like -p to map ports, -v to map volumes, and -d to daemonize.

docker-openresty symlinks /usr/local/openresty/nginx/logs/access.log and error.log to /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr respectively, so that Docker logging works correctly. If you change the log paths in your nginx.conf, you should symlink those paths as well. This is not possible with the windows image.

Temporary directories such as client_body_temp_path are stored in /var/run/openresty/. You may consider mounting that volume, rather than writing to a container-local directory. This is not done for windows.

Nginx Config Files

The Docker tooling installs its own nginx.conf file. If you want to directly override it, you can replace it in your own Dockerfile or via volume bind-mounting.

For the Linux images, that nginx.conf has the directive include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf; so all nginx configurations in that directory will be included. The default virtual host configuration has the original OpenResty configuration and is copied to /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.

You can override that default.conf directly or volume bind-mount the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory to your own set of configurations:

docker run -v /my/custom/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d openresty/openresty:alpine

If you are running on an selinux host (e.g. CentOS), you may need to add :Z to your volume bind-mount argument:

docker run -v /my/custom/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d:Z openresty/openresty:alpine

When using the windows image you can change the main configuration directly:

docker run -v C:/my/custom/nginx.conf:C:/openresty/conf/nginx.conf openresty/openresty:windows

OPM

Starting at version 1.11.2.2, OpenResty for Linux includes a package manager called opm, which can be found at /usr/local/openresty/bin/opm.

opm is built in all the images except alpine, stretch and buster.

To use opm in the alpine image, you must also install the curl and perl packages; they are not included by default because they double the image size. You may install them like so: apk add --no-cache curl perl.

To use opm within the stretch and buster image, you can either use the stretch-fat/buster-fat image or install the openresty-opm package in a custom build (which you would need to do to install your own opm packages anyway), as shown in this example.

LuaRocks

LuaRocks is included in the alpine-fat, centos, and xenial variants. It is excluded from alpine because it generally requires a build system and we want to keep that variant lean.

It is available at /usr/local/openresty/luajit/bin/luarocks. Packages can be added in your dependent Dockerfiles like so:

RUN /usr/local/openresty/luajit/bin/luarocks install <rock>

Tips & Pitfalls

• The envsubst utility is included in all images except alpine and windows; this utility is also included in the Nginx docker image and is used to template environment variables into configuration files.

• Docker Hub does not currently support ARM builds, thus an armhf-xenial image is not available (See #26). You can build an image yourself using the RESTY_DEBIAN_BASE build argument:

docker build -f xenial/Dockerfile --build-arg "RESTY_DEBIAN_BASE=armv7/armhf-ubuntu" .

• By default, OpenResty is built with SSE4.2 optimizations if the build machine supports it. If run on machine without SSE4.2, there will be invalid opcode issues. Thus all the Docker Hub images require SSE4.2. You can build a custom image from source explicitly without SSE4.2 support, using build arguments like so:

docker build -f xenial/Dockerfile --build-arg "RESTY_LUAJIT_OPTIONS=--with-luajit-xcflags='-DLUAJIT_NUMMODE=2 -DLUAJIT_ENABLE_LUA52COMPAT -mno-sse4.2'" .

• OpenResty's OpenSSL library version must be compatible with your opm and LuaRocks packages' version. At minimum, the numeric portion should be the same (e.g. 1.1.1). The image label resty_openssl_version indicates this value. see Labels.

• The 1.13.6.2-alpine is built from OpenSSL 1.0.2r because of build issues on Alpine. 1.15.8.1-alpine is built from OpenSSL 1.1.1c on Alpine 3.9.

• Windows images must be built from the same version as the host system it runs on. See Windows container version compatibility. Our images are currently built from the "Windows Server 2016" series.

• The SIGQUIT signal will be sent to nginx to stop this container, to give it an opportunity to stop gracefully (i.e, finish processing active connections). The Docker default is SIGTERM, which immediately terminates active connections. Note that if your configuration listens on UNIX domain sockets, this means that you'll need to manually remove the socket file upon shutdown, due to nginx bug #753.

• Alpine 3.9 added OpenSSL 1.1.1 and we build images against this. OpenSSL 1.1.1 enabled TLS 1.3 by default, which can create unexpected behavior with ssl_session_(store|fetch)_by_lua*. See this patch, which will ship in OpenResty 1.17.x.1, for more information: https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/commit/d3dbc0c8102a9978d649c99e3261d93aac547378

Image Labels

The image builds are labeled with various information, such as the versions of OpenRestyand its dependent libraries. Here's an example of printing the labels using jq:

$ docker pull openresty/openresty:1.15.8.1-1-alpine
$ docker inspect openresty/openresty:1.15.8.1-1-alpine | jq '.[].Config.Labels'

Docker CMD

The -g "daemon off;" directive is used in the Dockerfile CMD to keep the Nginx daemon running after container creation. If this directive is added to the nginx.conf, then the docker run should explicitly invoke openresty (or nginx for windows images):

docker run [options] openresty/openresty:xenial openresty

Invoke another CMD, for example the resty utility, like so:

docker run [options] openresty/openresty:xenial resty [script.lua]

NOTE The alpine images do not include the packages perl and ncurses, which is needed by the resty utility.

Building (from source)

This Docker image can be built and customized by cloning the repo and running docker build with the desired Dockerfile:

git clone https://github.com/openresty/docker-openresty.git
cd docker-openresty
docker build -t myopenresty -f xenial/Dockerfile .
docker run myopenresty

Dockerfiles are provided for the following base systems, selecting the Dockerfile path with -f:

• Alpine (alpine/Dockerfile)
• Alpine Fat (alpine-fat/Dockerfile)
• Ubuntu Xenial (xenial/Dockerfile)
• Ubuntu Bionic (bionic/Dockerfile)

We used to support more build flavors but have trimmed that down. Older Dockerfiles are archived in the archive folder.

The following are the available build-time options. They can be set using the --build-arg CLI argument, like so:

docker build --build-arg RESTY_J=4 -f xenial/Dockerfile .
