Simple and quick VPS setup for Ubuntu 16.04 (64-bit)

Before install

This VPS configuration is great for Nette framework.

The setup installs the following software:

Nginx (latest stable version)

How to setup Let's Encrypt for Nginx on Ubuntu 18.04 (including IPv6, HTTP/2 and A+ SLL rating)

Virtual hosts

Let's say you want to host domains first.com and second.com.

Create folders for their files:

$ npm install
$ ./node_modules/.bin/webpack-dev-server
$ open http://localhost:8080/webpack-dev-server/

Notes:

Note the trailing slash on the URL is significant. Without it webpack-dev-server shows a file listing page.
You need 1.0.11 or later of webpack-dev-middleware for this URL to work. With earlier versions you need to specify the full URL like this: http://localhost:8080/webpack-dev-server/index.html.
To get a non-autoreloading version of the page use http://localhost:8080/index.html.

Nginx FastCGI response buffer sizes

By default when Nginx starts receiving a response from a FastCGI backend (such as PHP-FPM) it will buffer the response in memory before delivering it to the client. Any response larger than the set buffer size is saved to a temporary file on disk.

This process is outlined at the Nginx ngx_http_fastcgi_module page manual page.
