- Install nginx
- Start the nginx
[Introduction] Today we built a very simple streaming media server, using FFMPEG to push the stream to nGINx server, and using VLC player subscription media streaming out.
1. Install nginx
1.1 Pull nginx to the local PC and run the following command:
brew tap homebrew/nginx
If brew is not recognized, execute the following command:
Ruby – e “$(curl – fsSL raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/in…). “
If there is an error:
Error: homebrew/nginx was deprecated. This tap is now empty as all its formulae were migrated.
Run the following command:
brew tap denji/nginx
1.2 Installing Nginx and related modules
To install nginx and RTMP protocol modules, run the following command:
brew install nginx-full –with-rtmp-module
If the following error message is displayed:
==> Installing nginx-full from denji/nginx
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on High Sierra.
Install the Command Line Tools:
xcode-select –install
Then run the following command:
xcode-select –install
When the “Ask” popup appears, click “Agree” and the popup as shown in the picture will indicate that the installation is successful.
Note: The above screenshots are from the MAC system.
Then continue with the previous command and the result is as follows:

and run /usr/local/opt/openssl/bin/c_rehash
openssl is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local, because Apple has deprecated use of OpenSSL in favor of its own TLS and crypto libraries.
If you need to have openssl first in your PATH run: echo ‘export PATH=”/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin:$PATH”‘ >> ~/.bash_profile
For compilers to find openssl you may need to set: export LDFLAGS=”-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib” export CPPFLAGS=”-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include”
For pkg-config to find openssl you may need to set: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=”/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/pkgconfig”

The default port has been set in /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf to 8080 so that nginx can run without sudo.
nginx will load all files in /usr/local/etc/nginx/servers/.

2. Start the nginx
At this point, the Nginx streaming server is installed successfully. Next run nginx and run the following command:
nginx
To test whether the nginx server is available, open a browser, type http://localhost:8080 and press Enter.
If the following information appears, the Nginx server is available.
You can then push the RTMP video stream to the default port 1935.
