Nginx

Installation

Install the prerequisites:

$ sudo apt install curl gnupg2 ca-certificates lsb-release

Adding the Nginx APT Repository

To set up the apt repository for stable nginx packages, run the following command:

$ echo "deb http://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu `lsb_release -cs` nginx" \
 | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list

If you would like to use mainline nginx packages, run the following command instead:

$ echo "deb http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/ubuntu `lsb_release -cs` nginx" \
 | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list

Next, import an official nginx signing key so apt could verify the packages authenticity:

$ curl -fsSL https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key | sudo apt-key add -

Verify that you now have the proper key:

$ sudo apt-key fingerprint ABF5BD827BD9BF62

The output should contain the full fingerprint 573B FD6B 3D8F BC64 1079 A6AB ABF5 BD82 7BD9 BF62 as follows:

pub   rsa2048 2011-08-19 [SC] [expires: 2024-06-14]
      573B FD6B 3D8F BC64 1079  A6AB ABF5 BD82 7BD9 BF62
uid   [unknown] nginx signing key <[email protected]>
