How to implement return 301 and listen *:80 default directives

[rdev5]

Hi,

Just need to know how I can do the following with this module:

Load default site (no vhost found):

server {
  listen *:80 default;
  server_name           _;
}

Redirect non-SSL with 301:

server {
	listen 80;
	server_name example.com;
	return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}

You can use _ as a literal in the server_name parameter (which can take an array or string), so in a simple use case, you can just set the server_name parameter to _.

With current version, you can just define the vhost once and define the ssl_redirect parameter. There are a couple other ssl_ options, see the limited docs that are there now, as well as the parameters documented for the vhost resource: https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-nginx/blob/master/manifests/resource/vhost.pp

I have been trying to create a similar server setting for a Confluence install.
I created this manual configuration which I have been using this module to create:

Puppetfile:

mod "puppet/nginx", "0.6.0"

Manual configuration:

  server {
      listen 80 default_server;
      server_name wiki.foo.lan;

      return         301 https://$server_name/;
  }

Yaml for this module:

nginx::nginx_servers:
  '_':
    ensure: 'present'
    listen_options: 'default_server'
    listen_port: 80
    ssl: false
    ssl_redirect: true
    use_default_location: false

Output from the yaml:

$ cat _.conf 
# MANAGED BY PUPPET
server {
  listen *:80 default_server;
  server_name           _;

  return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
  access_log            /var/log/nginx/_.access.log combined;
  error_log             /var/log/nginx/_.error.log;
}

Hopefully the yaml example may help anyone else reading this ticket.

Without the use_default_location: true option this module has a bug causing nginx to fail to restart.

The url for vhost resource is changed in PR#980 to server resource https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-nginx/blob/master/manifests/resource/server.pp
