How to restart Discorse's nginx service inside the docker container?

Installation

The proper way to restart nginx inside the Discourse docker container is to use the sv command, which is part of the runit service supervisor.

root@osestaging1-discourse-ose:/var/www/discourse# sv stop nginx
ok: down: nginx: 1s, normally up
root@osestaging1-discourse-ose:/var/www/discourse# sv start nginx
ok: run: nginx: (pid 269) 0s
root@osestaging1-discourse-ose:/var/www/discourse#

So it looks like Ruby on Rails uses runit

I found the sv command as it’s referenced in the templates/web.template.yml file
