Installation

Install via Bundler:

bundle add rails-nginx

Or install it manually:

gem install rails-nginx

Usage

config/puma.rb

port ENV.fetch('PORT') { 3000 } unless Rails.env.development?

plugin :rails_nginx if Rails.env.development?

# All configuration is entirely optional, the following blocks are not required.
rails_nginx_config(:primary) do |config|
  config[:domain] = 'route1.spline-reticulator.test' # default eg. rails-app-name.test
  config[:host] = '0.0.0.0' # default '127.0.0.1'
  config[:root_path] = './public' # default `Rails.public_path`
  config[:ssl] = false # default true
  config[:log] = false # default true

  # default location Rails.root + tmp/nginx/
  config[:ssl_certificate_path] = './tmp/certs/_spline-reticulator.test.pem'
  config[:ssl_certificate_key_path] = './tmp/certs/_spline-reticulator-key.test.pem'

  # default location Rails.root + log/nginx/
  config[:access_log_path] = './log/route1.nginx.access.log'
  config[:error_log_path] = './log/route1.nginx.error.log'
end

# You can define multiple configurations and all will be created on puma boot.
rails_nginx_config(:secondary) do |config|
  config.merge!(rails_nginx_config(:primary))

  config[:domain] = 'route2.spline-reticulator.test'
  config[:access_log_path] = './log/route2.nginx.access.log'
  config[:error_log_path] = './log/route2.nginx.error.log'
end
