This is a build of nginx which supports lua and modesecurity plugin. It is intended to be used as a reverse proxy with caching and WAF capabilities behind a load balancer (it is currently built without SSL support).

Features:

• luajit 2.1 from openresty is bundled with the build
• ngx_http_redis module - caching responses in Redis
• headers-more-nginx-module - for setting headers
• ModSecurity - waf capabilities

Running ./build.sh will output a new RPM file in the rpms/ directory.

Running ./debug.sh will build the container and start bash session inside it. You can then run rpmbuild -bb /root/rpmbuild/SPECS/nginx.spec to build the RPM file.

When RPM file is built, we upload it to github releases (for history) and to our internal public storage.

• would be nice to create a repository for the RPMs
• it is not possible to use COPR, as the build requires absolute path to LUAJIT_LIB and LUAJIT_INC which is not possible to set in COPR because of permissions issues.

grm release surfly/nginx-rpm -f rpms/<rpm-file> -t <version>

# Example:
# grm release surfly/nginx-rpm -f rpms/nginx-lua-waf-1.25.3-3.fc39.x86_64.rpm -t 1.25.3-3
