gatsbyjs/gatsby

Docker image that builds hosts a Gatsby site

This image has two major tags:

• latest - will serve your assets on production using up an nginx server

• onbuild - builds your project and creates a new docker image

Usage

1. Create a Dockerfile, as below, at the root of your project:

FROM gatsbyjs/gatsby:onbuild

2. Build your project's public assets with gatsby build

3. Build your project's docker image:

docker build -t myproject/website .

4. Upload to the registry

docker push myproject/website

5. Use it

docker run --rm -p 80:80 myproject/website
# Open your browser at http://localhost

Configuration

The way Nginx behaves can be configured using environment variables.

Please refer the docker run command options for the --env-file flag where you can specify all required environment variables in a single file. This will save you from writing a potentially long docker run command. Alternatively you can use docker-compose.

Below is the complete list of available options that can be used to customize your Nginx configuration:

Environment variable	Default	Description
CHARSET	utf-8	Charset being used in Content-Type response header field. See http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_charset_module.html
WORKER_CONNECTIONS	1024	The maximum number of simultaneous connections that can be opened by a worker process. See http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#worker_connections
HTTP_PORT	80	The address and / or port for IP, or the path for a UNIX-domain socket on which the server will accept requests. See http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#listen
PUBLIC_PATH	/pub	The path to the directory from which files are being served. See http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#root
GZIP_TYPES	application/javascript application/x-javascript application/rss+xml text/javascript text/css image/svg+xml	MIME types in addition to text/html for which gzip compression should be enabled. See http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_gzip_module.html#gzip_types
GZIP_LEVEL	6	Gzip compression level of a response. See http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_gzip_module.html#gzip_comp_level
