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

Creating a REST API using Node.js, Express, and MongoDB

###Creating a REST API using Node.js, Express, and MongoDB

####Installing Node.js

Go to http://nodejs.org, and click the Install button. Run the installer that you just downloaded. When the installer completes, a message indicates that Node was installed at /usr/local/bin/node and npm was installed at /usr/local/bin/npm. At this point node.js is ready to use. Let’s implement the webserver application from the nodejs.org home page. We will use it as a starting point for our project: a RESTful API to access data (retrieve, create, update, delete) in a wine cellar database.

Create a folder named nodecellar anywhere on your file system. In the wincellar folder, create a file named server.js.

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions
