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.

From non-RPM flavors, the following modules are included by default, but one can easily increase or decrease that with custom build options :

• file-aio
• http_addition_module
• http_auth_request_module
• http_dav_module
• http_flv_module
• http_geoip_module=dynamic
• http_gunzip_module
• http_gzip_static_module
• http_image_filter_module=dynamic
• http_mp4_module
• http_random_index_module
• http_realip_module
• http_secure_link_module
• http_slice_module
• http_ssl_module
• http_stub_status_module
• http_sub_module
• http_v2_module
• http_xslt_module=dynamic
• ipv6
• mail
• mail_ssl_module
• md5-asm
• pcre-jit
• sha1-asm
• stream
• stream_ssl_module
• threads

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:trusty

[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.

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

opm is built in all the images. However, to use it in the alpine image, you must also install the perl package; it is not included by default because it doubles the image size. You may install it like so: apk add --no-cache perl.

LuaRocks is included in the alpine-fat, centos, centos-rpm, trusty, 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>

The -g "daemon off;" directive is used in the Dockerfile ENTRYPOINT to keep the Nginx daemon running after container creation. If this directive is added to the nginx.conf, then it may be omitted from the ENTRYPOINT.

To invoke with another ENTRYPOINT, for example the resty utility, invoke like so:

docker run [options] --entrypoint /usr/local/openresty/bin/resty openresty/openresty:xenial [script.lua]

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

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 trusty/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)
• CentOS 7 (centos/Dockerfile)
• Debian Jessie (jessie/Dockerfile)
• Debian Wheezy (wheezy/Dockerfile)
• Ubuntu Trusty (trusty/Dockerfile)
• Ubuntu Xenial (xenial/Dockerfile)

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 trusty/Dockerfile .

OpenResty now now has RPMs available. The centos-rpm images use these RPMs rather than the build system described above.

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

• CentOS 7 RPM (centos-rpm/Dockerfile)

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_RPM_FLAVOR="-debug" -f centos-rpm/Dockerfile centos-rpm
