Install nginx dynamic module using docker compose

Usually in nginx to compile a third part module you should use this command:

./configure --add--module=path/to/your/new/module/directory

Then using:

make

And finally:

make install

But using docker I can't go into nginx path and run these commands. How could I add "configure" command to my docker-compose.yml file?

EDIT: I've tried to create a simple Dockerfile like this: 

FROM nginx 
RUN ./configure --add-module=./module/ 
     make && \ 
     make install

And including it into my docker-compose.yml.

And it gave me this error: 

/bin/sh: 1: ./configure: not found The command '/bin/sh -c ./configure --add-module=./module/' returned a non-zero code: 127

I've also tried to use "configure" instead of "./configure", but same result. I don't know how to set configure command.

I am not sure I understand the question correctly, but I think configure, make and make install should be done as part of docker build using the RUN directive (in your Dockerfile). docker-compose will simply run the resultant image (probably in-tandem with other docker images).

Sample Dockerfile (not verified, may contain errors!):

FROM centos:latest
COPY nginx /root/nginx
WORKDIR /root/nginx
RUN ./configure && make && make install
