This project provides standalone nginx and njs (NGINX JavaScript) binaries for *any* Linux system footnote:[nginx binaries are built as standalone static executables, so they works on every Linux system regardless of used libc.] (x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le), macOS (x86_64), and Windows (x86_64).

It also provides a JS library for downloading these binaries (for use in integration tests).



ifndef::npm-readme[]



You can also download the binaries manually from https://jirutka.github.io/nginx-binaries/ or https://github.com/{gh-name}/tree/binaries[binaries] branch (see <>).

They are built automatically and periodically using GitHub Actions (see link:.github/workflows/binaries.yml[config]).

==== NginxBinary / NjsBinary



cacheDir `(string)`::

Path to the cache directory where the repository index and binaries are stored.

+

Defaults to `.cache/nginx-binaries/` relative to the nearest writable `node_modules` (nearest to `process.cwd()`) or `nginx-binaries/` in the system-preferred temp directory.



cacheMaxAge `(number)`::

Maximum age in minutes for the cached repository index in `cacheDir` to be considered fresh.

If the cached index is stale, the Downloader tries to refresh it before reading.

+

Defaults to `480` (8 hours).



repoUrl `(string)`::

URL of the repository with binaries.

+

*Caution:* After changing `repoUrl`, you should delete old `index.json` in `cacheDir` or disable index cache by setting `cacheMaxAge` to `0`.

+

Defaults to `'https://jirutka.github.io/nginx-binaries'`.



timeout `(number)`::

Fetch response timeout in milliseconds.

+

Defaults to `10000` (10 seconds).



download `(query: <>, destFilePath?: string) => Promise`::

Downloads a binary specified by `query` and stores it in the `cacheDir` or in `destFilePath`, if provided.

Returns path to the file.

+

If the file already exists and the checksums match, it just returns its path.

+

If multiple versions satisfies the version range, the one with highest version number is selected.



search `(query: <>) => Promise<<>[]>`::

Returns metadata of available binaries that match the query.



variants `(query?: <>) => Promise`::

Returns all the available variants matching the query.



versions `(query?: <>) => Promise`::

Returns all the available versions matching the query.



==== Query



version `(?string)`::

Specify required version as exact version number or a https://github.com/npm/node-semver#ranges[SemVer version range].

+

Example: `'1.8.0'`, `'1.8.x'`, `'^1.8.0'`



variant `(?string)`::

Specify build variant of the binary (e.g. `debug`).

Defaults to an empty string, i.e. the default variant.



os `(?string)`::

Specify target OS.

Defaults to the host OS.



arch `(?string)`::

Specify target CPU architecture.

Defaults to the host architecture.



==== IndexEntry



name `(string)`::

Name of the program: `'nginx'` or `'njs'`.



version `(string)`::

Version of the program.



variant `(string)`::

The build variant of the binary (e.g. `debug`).

An empty string indicates the default variant.



os `(string)`::

OS platform for which this binary was built: `'darwin'` (macOS), `'linux'` (Linux), or `'win32'` (Windows).



arch `(string)`::

CPU architecture for which this binary was built: `'armv7'`, `'aarch64'`, `'ppc64le'`, or `'x86_64'`.



filename `(string)`::

Full name of the binary file.



date `(string)`::

Date and time (ISO-8601) at which the binary was built.



size `(number)`::

Size of the binary file in bytes.



checksum `(string)`::

Checksum of the binary file in format `:`.

+

Example: `'sha1:7336b675b26bd67fdda3db18c66fa7f64691e280'`



bundledLibs `(Object.)`::

A record of all libraries (or modules) statically linked into the binary and the version number.

+

.Example:

[source, js]

----

{

  'openssl': '1.1.1i-r0',

  'echo-nginx-module': '0.62',

}

----



=== Logging



. If https://github.com/Download/anylogger[anylogger] is available and initialized (any adapter has been registered), then:

** all log messages will go through `anylogger` logger `nginx-binaries`.



. If https://www.npmjs.com/package/debug[debug] is available, then:

** _debug_ messages will be logged via `debug` logger `nginx-binaries`, others (error, warn, info) via `console`.



. otherwise:

** _error_, _warn_, and _info_ messages will be logged via `console`, _debug_ messages will be discarded.



If none of these options is suitable, you can provide your own logger using `setLogger(object)`:



[source, js, subs="+attributes"]

----

import { setLogger } from '{npm-name}'



setLogger({

  warn: console.warn,

  error: console.error,

  // undefined logging functions will be replaced with no-op

})

----



== Files Repository



The built binaries are stored in https://github.com/{gh-name}/tree/binaries[binaries] branch of this git repository which is published on https://jirutka.github.io/nginx-binaries/.



The repository contains the following types of files:



* `index.{csv,json,html}` -- Repository index in CSV, JSON and HTML formats.

* `-[-]--[.exe]` -- Program binary for particular architecture and OS.

* `-[-]--[.exe].sha1` -- SHA-1 checksum of the binary file.

* `-[-]--[.exe].sources` -- List of all source tarballs and system-provided static libraries from which the binary was built.



See <> for description of ``, `` etc.

Suffix `.exe` is used for Windows binaries only.

Since nginx 1.22.0, the stable and mainline versions of nginx include the latest version of njs available at the time of building.

The _old stable_ versions of nginx include the latest minor (i.e. x.**Y**.z) version of njs released prior to the release of a new stable nginx (and the latest patch version available at the time of building).

That is, it’s the same as in NGINX’s own packages.
