Change Cache-Control nginx container on docker

I installed docker on my linux and I installed nginx container like this:

docker pull nginx
docker run -it  -d -p 8081:80 --name web -v /mnt/Project/Flutter/Projects/app_web2/build/web:/usr/share/nginx/html nginx

Now I want to change Cache-Control on my nginx container. Because I write a pwa with flutter, Every time I changed my page, when I launch page I still see old version of page, Now I want to change nginx caching. How can I change it's default?

I suspect that you can achieve this directly. There are two approach.

  1. Run nginx container as you running as of now. Then perform following operation.

    docker exec -it <<containername>>

    go to /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf ( Edit this file)

    Note : This approach is problem as you have to do this every time.

  2. Another approach is create custom image based on nginx.

    FROM nginx:latest      
COPY ./default.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf

This ./default.conf will reside in your directory and from where you execute following command.

   docker build . mynginx:latest

In this default.conf at your directory you can add custom header.

You can find sample over here : https://github.com/jp1482/mynginxwithcustomerheader
