Using nginx to serve static page in dev mode - solidcrafters/Rio GitHub Wiki

Config file

---

On ubuntu

As root :

• Create a file called rio in /etc/nginx/sites-available with this content.

    server {
        listen PORT;
        location / {
            root YOUR_PATH_TO_DIST;
        }
    }
  

  Where PORT is the port you want nginx to listen at and YOUR_PATH_TO_DIST the path you want to be served by nginx (your dist directory). Of course www-data must have read access to that directory.

• Create a symbolic link to that file in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled

    cd  /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
    ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/rio .
