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

trying to figure out useful info for running python on dreamhost shared hosting - intended for twitter bot makers

python for botmakers, on dreamhost shared hosting

On a shared hosting service like dreamhost, how do you get your twitter bot up and running? Problems:

  • where should I put my script?
  • you can't install python modules like tweepy (for twitter access) because you don't have root permission
  • once you get that solved, how do you run your script? cron?

I'm still figuring this stuff out myself, so nothing is clear as it should be. Hope this page will be a resource that will improve over time.
