Nginx Site Management Scripts (ngxensite and ngxdissite)

These scripts, ngxensite and ngxdissite, allow you to easily enable or disable Nginx sites by creating or removing symbolic links in the sites-enabled directory, along with additional features for installation, upgrading, and autocompletion.

Installation

You can install the ngxensite and ngxdissite scripts directly from this repository using curl and bash. Ensure you run these commands with sudo to allow them to install properly:

Install ngxensite

To install ngxensite directly from the repository, run:

sudo curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mnofresno/scripting-tools/master/nginx-site-manager/ngxensite | sudo bash -s -- --install

Install ngxdissite

To install ngxdissite directly from the repository, run:

sudo curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mnofresno/scripting-tools/master/nginx-site-manager/ngxdissite | sudo bash -s -- --install

Upgrading the Scripts

To upgrade ngxensite or ngxdissite to the latest version available in the repository, use the --upgrade option with curl and bash:

Upgrade ngxensite

sudo curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mnofresno/scripting-tools/master/nginx-site-manager/ngxensite | sudo bash -s -- --upgrade

Upgrade ngxdissite

sudo curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mnofresno/scripting-tools/master/nginx-site-manager/ngxdissite | sudo bash -s -- --upgrade

These commands will download the latest version of the script from the repository if the remote version is different from the installed one, ensuring you always have the most recent updates.

Usage

Enabling a Site

To enable a site, run:

sudo ngxensite <site-name>

Replace <site-name> with the name of the site configuration file in /etc/nginx/sites-available. This will create a symbolic link in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ and reload Nginx to apply the changes.

Disabling a Site

To disable a site, run:

sudo ngxdissite <site-name>

Replace <site-name> with the name of the site configuration file in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled. This will remove the symbolic link and reload Nginx to apply the changes.

Autocompletion

Both scripts support autocompletion, allowing you to quickly autocomplete available or enabled site names using the Tab key.

Set Up Autocompletion for ngxensite

sudo ngxensite --autocomplete

This command will generate and install the autocompletion script for ngxensite, enabling tab completion for available site names in /etc/nginx/sites-available.

Set Up Autocompletion for ngxdissite

sudo ngxdissite --autocomplete

This command will generate and install the autocompletion script for ngxdissite, enabling tab completion for enabled site names in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled.

Installation and Autocompletion Setup

When running the --install or --upgrade commands, the scripts will automatically handle:

• Downloading and installing the latest version.
• Setting up or refreshing autocompletion.
• Verifying if the common library ngx_common.sh is present and downloading it if needed.

Reloading Nginx

Both ngxensite and ngxdissite automatically reload Nginx after enabling or disabling a site to apply the changes. This functionality is provided by a common function reload_nginx included in the shared library ngx_common.sh.

Notes

• You must run these scripts with sudo to have the necessary permissions to create or remove symbolic links in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/.
• After running the autocompletion setup, make sure to open a new terminal session or reload your current one with source ~/.bashrc or source ~/.zshrc for the changes to take effect.
• Ensure that the library file ngx_common.sh is properly installed in /usr/local/lib as it contains shared functions required by both scripts.
