Description

Renders and enables vhost files for nginx.

This was written because at the time there was no other simple way to render out a vhost file for nginx that proxies to unicorn locally over a unix socket

data_bag.rb

Lets you configure multiple vhost files from data bags.

default.rb

Does nothing

Requirements

Suggests

nginx

Isn't required, but I'm not sure why else you would need nginx config files.

Tested on:

Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04 Centos 5.8, 6.3

Should work everywhere

Attributes

data_bag.rb

node.nginx.vhosts = [] node.nginx.vhost.data_bag_name = "nginx"

Usage

simple unicorn upstream

nginx_vhost "unicorn.example.com" do
  sockets [ "unix:/path/to/unicorn.sock" ]
end

static ssl

nginx_vhost "ssl.example.com" do
  port 443
  ssl_key  "/path/to/cert.key"
  ssl_cert "/path/to/cert.pem"
  upstream false
end

simple remote upstreams

nginx_vhost "example.com" do
  servers [ "10.0.0.1:80", "10.0.0.2:80", "10.0.0.3:80" ]
end
