################################################### Webserver configuration ################################################### Configuration details ==================================================================== The server has been configured to use the ``Nginx`` webserver with proxy mechanism to host multiple websites. The hosted websites have a configuration file named ``domain_name`` in the ``/etc/nginx/sites-available/`` directory. In our case there are the following files .. code-block:: bash $ dataepartners.ai #accessible through URL http://dataepartners.ai default website that is hosting the Sphinx generated documentation $ admin.dataepartners.ai #accessible through URL http://admin.dataepartners.ai website that is served by gunicorn for django apps The hosted websites can be accessible only if they are activated/enabled under the ``/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/`` directory. In our case the two websites have been enabled and configured to respond to requests based on their listen and server_name directives using the following command : .. code-block:: bash $ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/dataepartners.ai /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ #site http://dataepartners.ai enabled $ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/dataepartners.ai /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ #site http://admin.dataepartners.ai enabled This has created two server blocks in the ``/etc/nginx/nginx.conf file``. .. code-block:: bash GNU nano 6.2 /etc/nginx/nginx.conf user www-data; worker_processes auto; pid /run/nginx.pid; include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf; events { worker_connections 768; # multi_accept on; } http { ## # Basic Settings ## sendfile on; tcp_nopush on; types_hash_max_size 2048; # server_tokens off; server_names_hash_bucket_size 64; # server_name_in_redirect off; include /etc/nginx/mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream; ## # SSL Settings ## ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3; # Dropping SSLv3, ref: POODLE ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on; ## # Logging Settings ## access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log; ## # Gzip Settings ## gzip on; # gzip_vary on; # gzip_proxied any; # gzip_comp_level 6; # gzip_buffers 16 8k; # gzip_http_version 1.1; # gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/javascript text> ## # Virtual Host Configs ## include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf; ## all files under conf.d/ can be enabled not used in our case include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*; ## all files under sites-enabled/ can be enabled used in our case } And virtual links have been added to the ``/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/`` directory. .. code-block:: bash $ dataepartners.ai #virtual link of /etc/nginx/sites-available/dataepartners.ai $ admin.dataepartners.ai #virtual link of /etc/nginx/sites-available/admin.dataepartners.ai Static and dynamic websites URLs ==================================================================== http://dataepartners.ai gives an access to plain html website generated by Sphinx http://admin.dataepartners.ai gives an access to dynamic website with python and postgres generated with django framework
