Nginx Generator

Stop googling nginx config snippets. Describe what you want and get a working nginx configuration.

One command. Zero config. Just works.

Quick Start

npx ai-nginx "reverse proxy port 3000 with SSL"

What It Does

Generates complete nginx configuration
Handles reverse proxy, SSL, caching, rate limiting
Includes security headers
Proper server block structure

Usage Examples

# Reverse proxy with SSL
npx ai-nginx "reverse proxy port 3000 with SSL and rate limiting"

# Static site
npx ai-nginx "serve static files from /var/www/html with caching"

# Load balancing
npx ai-nginx "load balance between 3 node servers" -o nginx.conf

Best Practices

Always use SSL - Let's Encrypt is free
Set worker connections - tune for your traffic
Enable gzip - compress text responses
Add security headers - prevent common attacks

When to Use This

Setting up new nginx server
Adding reverse proxy to existing setup
Configuring SSL termination
Learning nginx configuration
