Hosting live dev site reviews using SSH reverse tunnels

Allows for end-users to be able to interact with your dev site directly, using their own browser and their own tools from their own computer
Easier for manual cross-browser testing (eg. use IE on Windows VM to test your dev site w/o having to deploy the site to a server)

These instructions assume the public server is Ubuntu-based and the dev machine has an SSH client

I hereby claim:

I am joem (https://keybase.io/joem) on keybase.

Why use a terminal multiplexer?
- Keeps your hands on the keyboard
- Keep multiple terminals in eyeshot
- Detach/re-attach remote session (eg. for long-running processes)
Like screen, but better

Filebeat is a log shipper, capture files and send to Logstash for processing and eventual indexing in Elasticsearch
Logstash is a heavy swiss army knife when it comes to log capture/processing
Centralized logging, necessarily for deployments with > 1 server
Super-easy to get setup, a little trickier to configure
Captured data is easy to visualize with Kibana
Wny not just Logstash (ELK is so hot right now)?

	# In order open a file relative to the executing script path (vs relative to the working directory of the python interpreter)
	# use:

	import os

	path = 'a/relative/file/path/to/this/script/file.txt'

	with open(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), path), 'r') as input_file:
	content = input_file.read()
