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

PSQL

Magic words:

psql -U postgres

Some interesting flags (to see all, use -h or --help depending on your psql version):

• -E: will describe the underlaying queries of the \ commands (cool for learning!)
• -l: psql will list all databases and then exit (useful if the user you connect with doesn't has a default database, like at AWS RDS)

Rails mailer structure

Your application is growing, and you are starting to have a complex mailing system: notification emails, retention emails, misc user emails, admin emails, etc...

It's time to clean up your mailers !

Existing mailer

You may already have a single mailer, responsible of every emails, like this one:

gsantovena

aws --output text --region ${REGION} ec2 describe-instances --instance-ids $(
        aws --output text --region ${REGION} \
                autoscaling describe-auto-scaling-instances \
                --query 'AutoScalingInstances[*].[AutoScalingGroupName,InstanceId]' |
        grep ${ASG} |
        awk '{ print $2 }'
        ) --query 'Reservations[*].Instances[*].[InstanceId,PrivateIpAddress]'

Postgres Cheatsheet

This is a collection of the most common commands I run while administering Postgres databases. The variables shown between the open and closed tags, "<" and ">", should be replaced with a name you choose. Postgres has multiple shortcut functions, starting with a forward slash, "". Any SQL command that is not a shortcut, must end with a semicolon, ";". You can use the keyboard UP and DOWN keys to scroll the history of previous commands you've run.

Setup

installation, Ubuntu

# This is just a cheat sheet:

# On production
sudo -u postgres pg_dump database | gzip -9 > database.sql.gz

# On local
scp -C production:~/database.sql.gz
dropdb database && createdb database
gunzip < database.sql.gz | psql database
