How do I add ngx_pagespeed to elastic beanstalk?

Question

I have an Elastic Beanstalk environment running nginx 1.6.2
Anyone know how to install the ngx_pagespeed module into this? The web instructions suggest re-building nginx, but I fear of losing the currently Amazon configured nginx.

Answer 1

Do a post deployment hooks to install the ngx_pagespeed in elastic beanstalk server as like below,

Create a fiel of folder path .platform/hooks/postdeploy/01_ngx_pagespeed.sh

and add the below code

#!/usr/bin/bash
echo "Installing Ngx Pagespeed"
sudo apt-get install build-essential zlib1g-dev libpcre3 libpcre3-dev unzip uuid-dev
echo "exiting.."
