Installation

You can use homebrew to install Nginx directly under MAC

Brew Search Nginxbrew Install Nginx

Start Nginx:sudo nginx, access 8080 should be able to see the Welcome screen

Nginx-v View Nginx startup parameters, the configuration file location by default is

--conf-path=/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf #重新加载配置 | restart | stop | Exit nginxnginx-s reload|reopen|stop|quit The reverse proxy assumes that you want someone else to enter localhost:8080 and jump directly to localhost:2014, then Nginx.con F in the configuration

HTTP {  server {    listen 8080;    Location/{      proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2014;}}  }

Load Balancer Plus Reverse proxy

MyApp1 is a collection of Web pages, here as a variable

HTTP {    Upstream MyApp1 {        server srv1.example.com;        Server srv2.example.com;        Server srv3.example.com;    }    server {        listen 8080;        Location/{            proxy_pass http://myapp1;}}    }

　　

Attention:

1. The thing behind the location is a URI address, or the request of the root directory to jump directly to the MYAPP1, of course, the URI can be longer, such as/name, such as the specific how to replace the Proxy_pass to deal with, here are divided into two situations

If proxy_pass the directive is specified with a URI and then when a request was passed to the server and the part of a normalized req Uest URI matching the location was replaced by a URIs specified in the directive:

location/name/{    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1/remote/;}

If proxy_pass is specified without a URI, the request URI was passed to the server in the same form as sent by a client when the Original request is a processed, or the full normalized request URI was passed when processing the changed URI:

location/some/path/{    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1;}
