Dotfile location moved above caching regex locations (first match wins).
application/pdf out of gzip_types (already flate-compressed). Compose
healthcheck block removed — image HEALTHCHECK is the single source,
inherited. Oracles: nginx -t, dotfiles 404, PDF no Content-Encoding,
HTML still gzipped, headers 5/5, inherited health = healthy.
- base image -> nginxinc/nginx-unprivileged:1.28-alpine, digest-pinned
(BREAKING for the docker path: container port 80 -> 8080; compose
mapping/healthcheck updated in the same change, cap_add dropped)
- nginx add_header inheritance fix: shared snippets file re-included in
every location that sets Cache-Control -- previously ALL security
headers were dropped on real responses (verified live before/after)
- server_tokens off; set_real_ip_from restricted to 127.0.0.1
- expires directives removed (duplicated Cache-Control); gzip_types
text/html redundancy removed (nginx -t warn)
Dockerfile selectively COPYs files into /usr/share/nginx/html. Favicon
assets (favicon.svg, favicon-32.png, favicon.ico, apple-touch-icon.png)
were added to the repo in ef31fb3 but never wired into the Dockerfile,
so a rebuilt container served 404 for /favicon.svg and friends — broken
favicon in prod even after `docker compose up -d --build`.
nginx.conf gets a matching long-cache rule for icon/image assets
(30 days, immutable, access_log off) — they rarely change and the file
name is the cache key anyway.
Deploy: on the VPS, `docker compose up -d --build`.

Add Dockerfile (nginx:1.27-alpine), nginx.conf (gzip, cache, CSP and
security headers, no HSTS — left to outer proxy), and docker-compose
service `bchanot-web`. Host port is configurable via PORT env var
(default 8080) and bound to 127.0.0.1 so the container sits behind a
reverse proxy. Container hardened with read_only fs, cap_drop ALL,
no-new-privileges, and tmpfs for nginx runtime dirs. Healthcheck via
wget on /. Also adds .dockerignore and .env.example, and ignores .env.
Usage:
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up -d --build
