Linux Server Setup & MERN App Deployment

These are the steps to setup an Ubuntu server from scratch and deploy a MERN app with the PM2 process manager and Nginx. We are using Linode, but you could just as well use a different cloud provider or your own machine or VM.

Create an account at Linode

Click on Create Linode

Choose your server options (OS, region, etc)

Use PHP-CS-Fixer in PHPStorm

• Install PHP-CS-Fixer on your local machine according to these instructions: https://github.com/FriendsOfPHP/PHP-CS-Fixer
• Open PHPStorm, Preferences > Tools > External Tools and enter these values:
• Program, edit to match your path where PHP-CS-Fixer lives: /.composer/vendor/friendsofphp/php-cs-fixer/php-cs-fixer
• Parameters: --rules=@PSR2 --verbose fix $FileDir$/$FileName$. Note that previous verions of PHP-CS-Fixer used --levels instead of --rules.
• Working directory: $ProjectFileDir$

Click OK and Apply. Now we'll set up a shortcut.

• Go to Preferences > Keymap and search for "PHP Fixer" (or whatever name you gave it). Add whatever shortcut you like, I'm using ctrl + cmd + ]:

'''
PIL's Image.thumbnail() returns an image that fits inside of a given size (preserving aspect ratios)
but the size of the actual image will vary and is certainly not guaranteed to be the requested size.
This is often inconvenient since the size of the returned thumbnail cannot be predicted. The django-thumbs
library solves this for square thumbnails by cropping the image to a square and then resizing it. However,
this only works for exact squares.

This function generalizes that approach to work for thumbnails of any aspect ratio. The returned thumbnail
is always exactly the requested size, and edges (left/right or top/bottom) are cropped off to adjust to
make sure the thumbnail will be the right size without distorting the image.
