NGINX

NGINX is a very common web server and reverse proxy.

You can easily add it to your Lando app by adding an entry to the services top-level config in your Landofile.

services:
  myservice:
    type: nginx

Patch versions

Not officially supported!

While we allow users to specify patch versions for this service, they are not officially supported, so if you use one, YMMV.

To use a patch version, you can do something as shown below:

services:
  myservice:
    type: nginx:1.16.1

But make sure you use one of the available patch tags for the underlying image we are using.

Custom Installation

This plugin is included with Lando by default. That means if you have Lando version 3.0.8 or higher then this plugin is already installed!

However if you would like to manually install the plugin, update it to the bleeding edge or install a particular version then use the below. Note that this installation method requires Lando 3.5.0+.

lando plugin-add @lando/nginx

# @TODO
# @NOTE: This doesn't actaully work yet
hyperdrive install @lando/nginx

# Ensure you have a global plugins directory
mkdir -p ~/.lando/plugins

# Install plugin
# NOTE: Modify the "npm install @lando/nginx" line to install a particular version eg
# npm install @lando/nginx@0.5.2
docker run --rm -it -v ${HOME}/.lando/plugins:/plugins -w /tmp node:18-alpine sh -c \
  "npm init -y \
  && npm install @lando/nginx --production --flat --no-default-rc --no-lockfile --link-duplicates \
  && npm install --production --cwd /tmp/node_modules/@lando/nginx \
  && mkdir -p /plugins/@lando \
  && mv --force /tmp/node_modules/@lando/nginx /plugins/@lando/nginx"

# Rebuild the plugin cache
lando --clear

You should be able to verify the plugin is installed by running lando config --path plugins and checking for @lando/nginx. This command will also show you where the plugin is being loaded from.
