How to proxy web apps using nginx?

Virtual Hosts on nginx (CSC309)

When hosting our web applications, we often have one public IP address (i.e., an IP address visible to the outside world) using which we want to host multiple web apps. For example, one may wants to host three different web apps respectively for example1.com, example2.com, and example1.com/images on the same machine using a single IP address.

How can we do that? Well, the good news is Internet browsers

A few of these works have had an extraordinary effect on my life or way of thinking. They get a sixth star. ★

S.O.L.I.D - (D)ependency Inversion. In the bad example, yes we're injecting our dependency but the Button class is now no longer reusable as it is too tightly coupled to the Lamp class. In the better example, we're still injecting our dependency but we now inverse the control via the use of an Interface. So now any `SwitchableDevice` can be used…
<?php
class Lamp
{
public function turnOn()
{
// code
}
public function turnOff()
{
