Scripts to automate otherwise tedious Nginx server setup.

nginx-automator

Script has been adapted from the following Digital Ocean community question answer by Justin Ellingwood: Semi-automating Nginx server block set up on Ubuntu with a script?

What nginx-wp.sh does

Automates an otherwise tedious Nginx server block set up for a WordPress site.

• Creates web root
• Creates server block file
• Enables server block
• Reloads nginx

Usage

Make sure to make script executable by running the following command (may require sudo).

chmod +x ./nginx-wp.sh

Do this once, then run the following command each time you want to create a server block.

./nginx-wp.sh example.com

Assumptions

• Your nginx server blocks are going to be set up in the /var/www/ directories.
• You use WordPress, or maybe some other PHP application.
• You use hhvm (hence the hhvm.conf include in -hhvm.sh) or PHP5-FPM.
