Example Configuration Files
Different services in Liferay Cloud (such as the search and web server services) use configuration files to perform what you might be used to handling differently in an on-premises environment. Here are some example resources you can use as a starting point to see what these files look like when you are getting started with Liferay Cloud.
Web Server Service Configuration (nginx.conf)
The web server service uses an Nginx server to manage web traffic. Here is an example nginx.conf
file:
user nginx;
worker_processes 2;
load_module modules/ngx_http_headers_more_filter_module.so;
load_module modules/ngx_http_auth_spnego_module.so;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log ${ERROR_LOG_LEVEL};
pid /tmp/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 10000;
}
http {
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
log_format main '${LCP_WEBSERVER_LOG_FORMAT}';
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
more_clear_headers Server;
server_tokens off;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
gzip on;
gzip_vary on;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
client_max_body_size 0;
upstream upstream_server {
keepalive 7000;
server ${PROXY_ADDRESS};
}
server {
listen 80 default_server;
large_client_header_buffers 4 32k;
if ($http_x_forwarded_proto = "http") {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
proxy_connect_timeout ${LCP_WEBSERVER_GLOBAL_TIMEOUT};
proxy_read_timeout ${LCP_WEBSERVER_GLOBAL_TIMEOUT};
proxy_send_timeout ${LCP_WEBSERVER_GLOBAL_TIMEOUT};
proxy_max_temp_file_size ${LCP_WEBSERVER_PROXY_MAX_TEMP_FILE_SIZE};
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
location /nginx_status {
access_log ${NGINX_STATUS_ACCESS_LOG};
stub_status on;
proxy_connect_timeout ${LCP_WEBSERVER_GLOBAL_TIMEOUT};
proxy_read_timeout ${LCP_WEBSERVER_GLOBAL_TIMEOUT};
proxy_send_timeout ${LCP_WEBSERVER_GLOBAL_TIMEOUT};
allow 10.0.0.0/8;
deny all;
}
}
set_real_ip_from 10.0.0.0/0;
real_ip_header X-Forwarded-For;
real_ip_recursive on;
}
The nginx.conf
file belongs in the webserver/configs/[ENV]/conf.d/
directory in your project repository.
Search Service Configuration (elasticsearch.yml)
The search service uses an Elasticsearch server to handle search queries in your Liferay instance. Here is an example elasticsearch.yml
file:
cluster:
name: ${CLUSTER_NAME}
node:
master: true
name: ${HOSTNAME}
data: true
ingest: true
network.host: ${NETWORK_HOST}
path:
data: /data/data
logs: /data/log
bootstrap:
memory_lock: ${MEMORY_LOCK}
xpack.security.enabled: ${ENABLE_XPACK_SECURITY}
xpack.monitoring.enabled: ${ENABLE_XPACK_MONITORING}
The elasticsearch.yml
file belongs in the search/configs/[ENV]/config/
directory in your project repository.
