nginx基本操作

启动

1、基本启动
/usr/bin/nginx

2、高级启动
/usr/bin/nginx -t -c ~/mynginx.conf -g "pid /var/run/nginx.pid; worker_processes 2;"

可选项：

-c </path/to/config>

Specify which configuration file Nginx should use instead of the default.指定启动的配置文件

-g Set global directives. (version >=0.7.4)

设置全局指令

-t Don't run, just test the configuration file. nginx checks configuration for correct syntax and then try to open files referred in configuration.

测试配置文件是否可用正常启动

-s signal Send signal to a master process: stop, quit, reopen, reload. (version >= 0.7.53)

发送信号。包括停止，退出，重新开启，重新加载。

-v Print version.打印版本信息

-V Print nginx version, compiler version and configure parameters.
打印完整版本信息

-p prefix Set prefix path (default: /usr/local/nginx/). (version >= 0.7.53)
设置前缀路径

-h,-? Print help.

帮助。


如何重启？

有2种方法控制使它停止。

1、/usr/bin/nginx -s stop

2、kill -QUIT $( cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/nginx.pid )

send the 'QUIT' (Graceful Shutdown)


主进程可处理以下信号：

The master process can handle the following signals:

TERM, INT Quick shutdown 快速关闭
QUIT Graceful shutdown      优雅关闭
KILL Halts a stubborn process  中止难以停止的进程
HUP Configuration reload         配置重新加载
Start the new worker processes with a new configuration 以新的配置文件启动新的进程
Gracefully shutdown the old worker processes 优雅关闭老进程
USR1 Reopen the log files                  重新打开新的日志文件
USR2 Upgrade Executable on the fly         升级可执行       
WINCH Gracefully shutdown the worker processes 优雅关闭工作进程
