nginx plugin: Generated config is missing mime.types

[ThomasLohner]

What happened?

Nginx will not serve static files (css, js and other) correctly, because there is no mime-types config.

The plugin generates a valid nginx.conf but without mime-types config nginx will return a Content-Type: text/plain header for all static files.

The correct behavior would be to see a header matching the file extension, for example Content-Type: text/css.

To fix this we need to copy https://github.com/nginx/nginx/blob/master/conf/mime.types into the devbox.d/nginx/ folder and add the following to nginx.template

...

http{

include mime.types;

...

Steps to reproduce

1. run devbox add nginx
2. add my.css to docroot (devbox.d/nginx/web/)
3. run curl -I http:/localhost:8081/my.css

You will see the header:

Content-Type: text/plain
