Installation

The interactive installer requires nginx, curl, root access through either the current user or sudo, and an nginx service managed by systemctl or service:

curl -fsSL https://meghdadfadaee.github.io/nais/setup.sh | sh

It asks for:

• server_name: one hostname or IP address.
• root_path: the absolute path whose files nginx should list.
• assets_path: where the NAIS CSS, JavaScript, and favicon are installed. The default is /var/www/nais-assets.
• certificates_path: an optional directory containing fullchain.pem and privkey.pem.

Without a certificates path, the generated site serves HTTP on port 80. With a certificates path, it serves HTTPS on port 443 and redirects HTTP to HTTPS.

The installer detects common nginx virtual-host include directories. If none is configured, it adds a managed nais-sites/*.conf include to nginx's main configuration. It validates changes with nginx -t before reloading or starting nginx. Re-running the installer refreshes the assets and replaces the managed NAIS site configuration.

The installer does not install nginx or obtain TLS certificates. The nginx worker user must have permission to traverse and read root_path; the installer does not change permissions on existing content.
