+ * [ModSecurity-nginx - Compilation](https://github.com/owasp-modsecurity/ModSecurity-nginx#compilation)
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+ * [Build Tools for Visual Studio 2022](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vs_buildtools.exe)
+   * Install *Desktop development with C++* workload, which includes:
+     * MSVC C++ compiler
+     * Windows SDK
+     * CMake
+   * NOTE: The build steps assume this has been installed in `C:\BuildTools`.
+ * [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/)
+   * For nginx build on Windows
+   * NOTE: The build steps assume this has been installed in `C:\msys64`.
+ * [Conan package manager 2.2.2](https://github.com/conan-io/conan/releases/download/2.2.2/conan-2.2.2-windows-x86_64-installer.exe)
+   * Required to build libModSecurity v3 on Windows.
+   * Install and then setup the default Conan profile to use the MSVC C++ compiler:
+     1. Open a command-prompt and set the MSVC C++ compiler environment by executing: `C:\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat`
+     2. Execute: `conan profile detect --force`
+ * [Git for Windows 2.44.0](https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/download/v2.44.0.windows.1/Git-2.44.0-64-bit.exe)
+ * [Strawberry Perl for Windows](https://strawberryperl.com/)
+   * nginx build on Windows requires a native Perl build. The one included in MSYS2 triggers the following error:
+        ```
+        This perl implementation doesn't produce Windows like paths (with backward slash directory separators).  Please use an implementation that matches your building platform.
+        ```
+   * NOTE: The build steps assume this has been installed in `C:\Strawberry\perl`.
+
+## Build
+
+ 1. Open a command prompt
+ 2. Set up MSVC C++ compiler environment by executing:
+    ```shell
+    C:\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat
+    ```
+ 3. From this command prompt, launch a `MSYS2 UCRT64 Shell` (to inherit MSVC C++ compiler environment)
+    ```shell
+    c:\msys64\ucrt64.exe
+    ```
+ 4. Checkout nginx source code
+    ```shell
+    git clone -c advice.detachedHead=false --depth 1 https://github.com/nginx/nginx.git
+    cd nginx
+    ```
+ 5. Download third-party libraries
+    ```shell
+    mkdir objs
+    mkdir objs/lib
+    cd objs/lib
+
+    echo Downloading PCRE2
+    wget -q -O - https://github.com/PCRE2Project/pcre2/releases/download/pcre2-10.39/pcre2-10.39.tar.gz | tar -xzf -
+
+    echo Downloading zlib
+    wget -q -O - https://www.zlib.net/fossils/zlib-1.3.tar.gz | tar -xzf -
+
+    echo Downloading OpenSSL
+    wget -q -O - https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-3.0.13.tar.gz | tar -xzf -
+    ```
+ 6. Checkout and build libModSecurity v3
+    * For more information on libModSecurity v3 build options, see [libModSecurity Windows build information](https://github.com/owasp-modsecurity/ModSecurity/blob/v3/master/build/win32/README.md).
+    ```shell
+    git clone -c advice.detachedHead=false --depth 1 https://github.com/owasp-modsecurity/ModSecurity.git
+
+    cd ModSecurity
+
+    git submodule init
+    git submodule update
+
+    vcbuild.bat
+
+    cd ..
+    ```
+ 7. Checkout ModSecurity-nginx
+    ```shell
+    git clone -c advice.detachedHead=false --depth 1 https://github.com/owasp-modsecurity/ModSecurity-nginx.git
+
+    cd ../..
+    ```
+ 8. Setup environment variables for nginx build
+    ```shell
+    # remove (or move) /usr/bin/link conflicting with MSVC link.exe
+    rm /usr/bin/link
+
+    # nginx build on windows requires a native perl build (see prerequisites)
+    export PATH=/c/Strawberry/perl/bin:$PATH
+    # avoid perl 'Setting locale failed.' warnings
+    export LC_ALL=C
+
+    # provide location of libModsecurity headers & libraries for
+    # the ModSecurity-nginx module build
+    export MODSECURITY_INC=objs/lib/ModSecurity/headers
+    export MODSECURITY_LIB=objs/lib/ModSecurity/build/win32/build/Release
+    ```
+ 9. Configure nginx build
+    ```shell
+    auto/configure \
+        --with-cc=cl \
+        --with-debug \
+        --prefix= \
+        --conf-path=conf/nginx.conf \
+        --pid-path=logs/nginx.pid \
+        --http-log-path=logs/access.log \
+        --error-log-path=logs/error.log \
+        --sbin-path=nginx.exe \
+        --http-client-body-temp-path=temp/client_body_temp \
+        --http-proxy-temp-path=temp/proxy_temp \
+        --http-fastcgi-temp-path=temp/fastcgi_temp \
+        --http-scgi-temp-path=temp/scgi_temp \
+        --http-uwsgi-temp-path=temp/uwsgi_temp \
+        --with-cc-opt=-DFD_SETSIZE=1024 \
+        --with-pcre=objs/lib/pcre2-10.39 \
+        --with-zlib=objs/lib/zlib-1.3 \
+        --with-openssl=objs/lib/openssl-3.0.13 \
+        --with-openssl-opt=no-asm \
+        --with-http_ssl_module \
+        --with-http_v2_module \
+        --with-http_auth_request_module \
+        --add-module=objs/lib/ModSecurity-nginx
+    ```
+ 10. Build nginx
+        ```shell
+        nmake
+        ```
+
+### Docker container
+
+A `Dockerfile` configuration file is provided in the `docker` subdir that creates a Windows container image which installs the [prerequisites](#prerequisites) and builds libModSecurity v3 and nginx w/ModSecurity-nginx.
+
+NOTE: Windows containers are supported in Docker Desktop for Windows, using the *Switch to Windows containers...* option on the context menu of the system tray icon.
+
+To build the docker image, execute the following command (from the `win32\docker` directory):
+
+ * `docker build -t modsecurity_nginx:latest -m 4GB .`
+
+Once the image is generated, the built binaries are located in the `C:\src\nginx\objs` directory.
+
+To extract the built binaries from the image, you can execute the following commands:
+
+ * `docker container create --name [container_name] modsecurity_nginx`
+ * `docker cp [container_name]:C:\src\nginx\objs\nginx.exe .`
+ * `docker cp [container_name]:C:\src\nginx\objs\libModSecurity.dll .`
+
+Additionally, the image can be used interactively for additional development work by executing:
+
+ * `docker run -it modsecurity_nginx`
+
+## Tests
+
+In order to validate the nginx w/ModSecurity-nginx binary it's recommended that you set up and run ModSecurity-nginx tests following these steps:
+
+ 1. Open a command prompt and go to the directory where `nginx` was built.
+ 2. Clone nginx-tests
+    ```shell
+    git clone -c advice.detachedHead=false --depth 1 https://github.com/nginx/nginx-tests.git test
+    ```
+ 3. Copy `libModSecurity.dll` to the directory where `nginx.exe` is located.
+    ```shell
+    cd objs
+    copy objs\lib\ModSecurity\build\win32\Release\build\libModSecurity.dll
+    ```
+ 4. Copy ModSecurity-nginx tests to the nginx tests directory.
+    ```shell
+    cd ..\test
+    copy ..\objs\lib\ModSecurity-nginx\tests\*.*
+    ```
+ 5. Run ModSecurity-nginx tests
+    ```shell
+    set TEST_NGINX_BINARY=..\objs\nginx.exe
+    prove modsecurity*.t
+    ```
+
+NOTES
+
+ * `TEST_NGINX_BINARY` requires path with backslashes. nginx won't work with path with slashes.
+ * The tests generate nginx configuration and associated files (such as log files) on the temp directory indicated by the `TEMP` environment variable. nginx won't work if the path contains spaces or short path names with the `~`  character. You may need to set the `TEMP` environment variable to a path that respects these limitations (such as `C:\TEMP`).
+
+## Miscellaneous
+
+The ModSecurity-nginx connector is built as a static nginx module. It looks as if there's currently no support for dynamic modules on nginx for Windows using MSVC.
+
+It may be possible to cross-compile for Windows using gcc/clang, which may enable building using dynamic modules too.
