ngx_openresty is a full-fledged web application server by bundling the standard nginx core,
lots of 3rd-party nginx modules, as well as most of their external dependencies.
This bundle is maintained by us, agentzh and chaoslawful, and sponsored by
Taobao.com, Alibaba Group.
Because most of the nginx modules are developed by the bundle maintainers, it can ensure
that all these modules are played well together.
The bundled software components are copyrighted by the respective copyright holders.
To build ngx_openresty, you need a working perl (perl 5.6.0 or better)
in your PATH environment, and then follow the following steps:
1. download the latest ngx_openresty tarball can be downloaded from
http://agentzh.org/misc/nginx/ngx_openresty-0.8.54.1.tar.gz
we will eventually migrate to the openresty.org domain.
2. and then enter the ngx_openresty-0.8.54.1/ directory,
and type the following command to configure:
./configure
by default, --prefix=/usr/local/openresty is assumed. You can
specify various options, as in
./configure --prefix=/opt/openresty \
--with-luajit \
--without-http_drizzle_module \
--with-http_iconv_module \
--with-http_postgres_module
try ./configure --help to see more options.
For Solaris, it's common to install libraries like OpenSSL to /lib,
so when it complaints about OpenSSL and you have indeed
already installed it, specify the --with-ld-opt='-L/lib' option.
3. build everything locally
make
4. install ngx_openresty into the target directory that you specified by
the --prefix option in Step 2.
make install
