nginx:tldr:d4c4c

nginx: Start server with a prefix for all relative paths in the configuration file.
$ nginx -c ${configuration_file} -p ${prefix-for-relative-paths}
try on your machine

This command is used to start the Nginx web server with specific configuration and path settings.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • nginx: This is the executable command to start the Nginx web server.

  • -c ${configuration_file}: This option specifies the location of the configuration file for Nginx. The ${configuration_file} placeholder should be replaced with the actual path to the configuration file.

  • -p ${prefix-for-relative-paths}: This option sets the prefix path for relative paths in the configuration file. The ${prefix-for-relative-paths} placeholder should be replaced with the desired prefix path.

By specifying the configuration file with -c and the prefix path with -p, you can customize the behavior of the Nginx web server according to your specific requirements.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
