Setup individual pools for PHP-FPM and NGINX - http://www.binarytides.com/php-fpm-separate-user-uid-linux/

Php-FPM

Php fpm is the new way to setup php to run with your webserver. Php-fpm is a fastcgi process manager for php that is totally separate from the webserver. The webserver communicates with fpm through a socket and passes the name of the script to execute. So fpm can run with any web server that is fastcgi compatible.

I recently moved from my old shared hosting to linode. Linode provides linux vps hosting at economic prices. However the servers are totally unmanaged are just raw linux machines that have shell access. So through the shell you have to setup everything including the web server, php and the web files.

So this time I decided to go with the combination of nginx and php-fpm. I had multiple sites to setup on this new webserver. Nginx deals with these through separate server blocks (aka vhost in apache). However there was another thing needed. Php on each site should run with its own user and not the nginx common user named www-data.

Running each site with its own uid/gid is more secure and

Don't use VPN services.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

  • A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
  • There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Basic RESTful API with Symfony 2 + FOSRestBundle (JSON format only) + FOSUserBundle + FOSOauthServerBundle

Basic RESTful API with Symfony 2 + FOSRestBundle (JSON format only) + FOSUserBundle + FOSOauthServerBundle

The API we are creating in this gist will follow these rules :

  • The API only returns JSON responses
  • All API routes require authentication
  • Authentication is handled via OAuth2 with password Grant Type only (no need for Authorization pages and such).
  • API versioning is managed via a subdomain (e.g. v1.api.example.com)

The API will be written in PHP with the Symfony 2 framework. The following SF2 bundles are used :

* This function will return the field_key of a certain field.

Can't remember exactly where I got the basic flexbox.less file from but I added new style definitions to it to cover everything I need.
// display: inline-flex //
// applies to flex container
.inline-flexbox() {
