Goal

• We have multiple mini services going on mainly in php/laravel and nodejs (express)

• I don’t want to manage different servers yet want to give them access differently so they can see each other’s project code.

• I am using digital ocean vps and creating users based on project for example

  Plain text

  Copy to clipboard

  Open code in new window

  EnlighterJS 3 Syntax Highlighter

  <code>project_name -> project1 then

  username will be project1 and directory of user will be home/project1/public

  </code>

  <code>project_name -> project1 then username will be project1 and directory of user will be home/project1/public </code>

  project_name -> project1 then
    username will be project1 and directory of user will be home/project1/public
  

- For URL I want to achieve like

https://example.com/php/{project1}/{any} -> home/{project1}/public [laravel project]
https://example.com/js/{project1}/{any} -> localhost:{port}

- Here is the configuration created so far.

server {
listen 80;
server_name random.ab;

# Serve static files from /home/{project}/public
location ~ ^/php/(?<project>[^/]+)(/.*)?$ {
    alias /home/$project/public$2;
    index index.php index.html;

    # Handle PHP files
    location ~ .php$ {
        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php8.1-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_hide_header X-Powered-By;
    }

    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

# Proxy requests to localhost:{port} for /js/{project}
location ~ ^/js/(?<project>[^/]+)(/.*)?$ {
    set $port "";

    # Define mapping of project names to ports
    if ($project = project1) { set $port 1234; }
    if ($project = project2) { set $port 5678; }
    # Add more project-to-port mappings as needed

    proxy_pass http://localhost:$port;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
}

# Security: Deny access to hidden files
location ~ /.(?!well-known).* {
    deny all;
}

}
