A standard Nginx configuration for a uWSGI/Python application.

user www-data; # user to run nginx as.
pid /var/run/nginx.pid; # you'll have to create this pidfile or else things won't work.

events {
    worker_connections 1024; # connections each worker can take.
    use epoll; # epoll is vastly superior to other alternatives.
}

    # a bunch of basic stuff.
    include /etc/nginx/mime.types;

        root /var/www;
        location / { # this will match all requests. you can segment here by regex as well.
            uwsgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; # pass to uwsgi on localhost and port 9000. uwsgi should be listening here.
            include /etc/nginx/uwsgi_params; # make sure this matches your uwsgi_params location.
