Getting Started

Before Use

The Nginx UI follows the Debian web server configuration file standard. Created site configuration files will be placed in the sites-available folder that under the Nginx configuration folder (auto-detected). The configuration files for an enabled site will create a soft link to the sites-enabled folder. You may need to adjust the way the configuration files are organised.

For non-Debian (and Ubuntu) systems, you may need to change the contents of the nginx.conf configuration file to the Debian style as shown below.

http {
	# ...
	include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
	include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}

For more information: debian/conf/nginx.conf

With Docker

Our docker image uozi/nginx-ui:latest is based on the latest nginx image and can be used to replace the Nginx on the host. By publishing the container's port 80 and 443 to the host, you can easily make the switch.

Note

When using this container for the first time, ensure that the volume mapped to /etc/nginx is empty.
If you want to host static files, you can map directories to container.
