DNSMasq

DNSMasq is used to resolve all domains that end with .test to 127.0.0.1. So you don´t need to touch hosts-File anymore.

NOTE: do not use .dev as this is a valid domain

Install

brew install dnsmasq

Configure

curl -L https://gist.githubusercontent.com/DeeEmm/66e454dcc9bfdc51d7d27030d23944b0/raw/40ad4f8a99934415ebd3e0beb348d01894a047c5/dnsmasq.conf -o /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf

Add to the Local DNS

Edit your network connector in system settings ? network

and add the following to the DNS servers

127.0.0.1

You can check that it has been added by viewing /etc/resolv.conf

Start, Stop and Restart

sudo brew services start dnsmasq

# Stop
sudo brew services stop dnsmasq

# Restart
sudo brew services restart dnsmasq

Test

dig yourlocaldomain.test @127.0.0.1

You should also be able to test by ping

ping yourlocaldomain.test

PHP-FPM

brew tap homebrew/nginx && \
brew install nginx

Test Installation

  sudo brew services start nginx
  
  ## Check if Nginx is running on port 80
  curl -IL http://127.0.0.1:80

Connection: keep-alive
ETag: "571f6dac-264"
Accept-Ranges: bytes

Stop Nginx

sudo brew services stop nginx

####Configure

Create missing directories

  mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-available && \
  mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-enabled && \
  mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d && \
  mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/nginx/ssl

Configure nginx.conf

# Remove default
rm /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
# Copy mine
curl -L https://gist.github.com/DeeEmm/66e454dcc9bfdc51d7d27030d23944b0/raw/40ad4f8a99934415ebd3e0beb348d01894a047c5/nginx.conf -o /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Start and Test Nginx

  ## Start Nginx
  sudo brew services start nginx
  
  ## Check if Nginx is running on default port
  curl -IL http://localhost

  ## Output should look like this
  HTTP/1.1 200 OK

  Accept-Ranges: bytes

Setup SSL

Create a folder for our SSL certificates and private keys:

mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/nginx/ssl

Generate 4096 bit RSA keys and the self-sign the certificates in one command:

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:4096 -days 365 -nodes -x509 -subj "/C=US/ST=State/L=Town/O=Office/CN=localhost" -keyout /usr/local/etc/nginx/ssl/localhost.key -out /usr/local/etc/nginx/ssl/localhost.crt

Setup example virtual hosts

These are working presets. But you need to edit Document-Root

curl -L https://gist.github.com/DeeEmm/66e454dcc9bfdc51d7d27030d23944b0/raw/40ad4f8a99934415ebd3e0beb348d01894a047c5/default -o /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-available/default && \
curl -L https://gist.github.com/DeeEmm/66e454dcc9bfdc51d7d27030d23944b0/raw/40ad4f8a99934415ebd3e0beb348d01894a047c5/default-ssl -o /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-available/default-ssl

Activate Virtual Hosts

ln -sfv /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-available/default /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
ln -sfv /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-available/default-ssl /usr/local/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default-ssl

Create info.php for testing echo "<?php phpinfo();" > /path/to/your/document/root

Test

sudo brew services restart nginx

curl -IL http://localhost/info.php
