The goal of this project is to help you understand the basics of setting up a web server using a basic static site served using Nginx. You will also learn how to use `rsync` to deploy your changes to the server.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Requirements
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here are the requirements for this project:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Register and setup a remote linux server on any provider e.g. a simple droplet on [DigitalOcean](https://m.do.co/c/b29aa8845df8) which gives you $200 in free credits with the link. Alternatively, use AWS or any other provider.
|
||
|
|
- Make sure that you can connect to your server using SSH.
|
||
|
|
- Install and configure `nginx` to serve a static site.
|
||
|
|
- Create a simple webpage with basic HTML, CSS and image files.
|
||
|
|
- Use `rsync` to update a remote server with a local static site.
|
||
|
|
- If you have a domain name, point it to your server and serve your static site from there. Alternatively, set up your nginx server to serve the static site from the server's IP address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can write a script `deploy.sh` which when you run will use `rsync` to sync your static site to the server.
|
||
|

Once you have completed the project, you should have a basic understanding of how to setup a web server using a basic static site served using Nginx. You should also have a basic understanding of how to use `rsync` to deploy your changes to the server.
