NGINX Unit 1.11.0 released

On September 19, 2019, the NGINX Unit 1.11.0 application server was released.
Main Features:

• The server has a built-in ability to independently serve static content without contacting an external http server. As a result, they want to turn the application server into a full-fledged web server with built-in tools for building web services. To distribute content, it is enough to specify the root directory in the settings {
  "share": "/data/www/example.com"
  }

  and optionally define missing MIME types {
  "mime_types": {
  "text/plain": [
  readme,
  ".c",
  ".h"
  ],

  "application/msword": ".doc"
  }
  }

  • Added support for process isolation using container isolation on Linux. In the configuration file, you can activate different namespaces, enable group restrictions, or match the GID / UID of the isolated environment with the main {
    "namespaces": {
    "credential": true
    "pid": true
    "network": true
    mount: false
    unname: true
    cgroup: false
    },

    "widmap": [
    {
    "container": 1000
    "host": 812,
    size: 1
    }
    ],

    "gidmap": [
    {
    "container": 1000
    "host": 812,
    size: 1
    }
    ]
    }
    

  • JSC servlets have their own WebSocket implementation.
  • Added implementation of direct addressing of API settings containing the "/" character, using its escaping with "%2F". Example:
    GET /config/settings/http/static/mime_types/text%2Fplain/
