Nginx

Nginx from nginx.org.

Versions

Version	Source
1.27.4	Windows
1.26.3	Windows

Starting

futou start nginx 1.27.4

When starting from the GUI, a document root prompt appears. The daemon generates nginx.conf and launches Nginx:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name localhost;
    root "D:/projects/myapp";
    index index.html;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }
}

MIME types are included inline — no external mime.types dependency.

The generated config is saved to %APPDATA%\.futou\runtimes\nginx\<version>\data\conf\nginx.conf. It is only generated on first start — subsequent starts preserve your edits.

Configuration

The GUI Config button opens the generated nginx.conf. Common customizations:

listen 8080;                           # Change port
root "D:/projects/another-app";        # Change project
client_max_body_size 50m;              # File upload limit

Stopping

futou stop nginx

PHP Integration (FastCGI)

To proxy PHP requests to a FastCGI server:

location ~ \.php$ {
    fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
    include fastcgi_params;
}

Then start PHP as a FastCGI server:

php-cgi.exe -b 127.0.0.1:9000
