使用 yum 在 Amazon Linux 2 上安装最新版本的 nginx

一开始

我想在Amazon Linux 2上安装最新版本的nginx(1.15.8)，
但是当使用yum install nginx命令时，会提示找不到该软件包，
而使用amazon-linux-extras命令只能选择1.12.2版本(截至2019/1/28)，
请告知安装最新版本的方法。

环境

AmazonLinux 使用的AMI为：amzn2-ami-hvm-2.0.20190115-x86_64-gp2 (ami-0d7ed3ddb85b521a6)。

设置仓库

创建/etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo并写入以下内容。

[nginx]
name=nginx repo
baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/centos/7/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key

安装

$ sudo yum install nginx -y
