Chapter 7. NGINX for the Application Developer
Throughout the book so far, we saw how to configure NGINX for a number of different scenarios. What we have not yet done is look at the possibilities that NGINX offers to the application developer. There are a number of ways that NGINX can be integrated directly into your application. We will explore those possibilities in the following sections:
- Caching integration
- Changing content on-the-fly
- Using Server Side Includes
- Decision-making in NGINX
- Creating a secure link
- Generating images
- Tracking website visitors
- Preventing inadvertent code execution
