~/.inputrc for nice bash history up-arrows. This allows you to search through your history using the up and down arrows … i.e. type "cd /" and press the up arrow and you'll search through everything in your history that starts with "cd /". Create ~/.inputrc and fill it with this:
"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward

Flask + uWSGI + nginx Primer

I've been having trouble with serving a Flask app via uWSGI and nginx, so I thought I'd put together some of the basics to help out others.

How this shit works

  • Flask is managed by uWSGI.
  • uWSGI talks to nginx.
