NGINX as a reverse proxy to 2 nodejs/python apis to a data warehouse of MongoDB (in P-S-S configuration).

Energetic Pixels' Nginx / NodeJS / MongoDB (single instance)

• Simple vagrant box with nginx as a reverse proxy server (load balancing, ssl) for two node instances.
• API box forwards guest ports 3000 and 3001 to 9001 and 9002 (host side) for nodejs in development mode.
  • This box has two folders on host synced to two folders on guest for api project 'home'. Automatically created by vagrant.
  • This box has two sample nodejs api scripts for initial setup testing purposes. To use, comment out API box's synced_folder lines and uncomment node_from_scratch file's section about installing 2 sample apis (4 shell script lines).
• Web box builds NGINX from source and forwards guest port 80 to host 8080. OpenSSL built from source and is integrated with NGINX but not setup in site configuration.
• DB box has MongoDB installed with capability to build from source (if needed).
