Notes: Host a new web service on linux

Hosting a new web-service requires 2 steps:

1. Create a new virtual host on nginx
2. Create a systemd service, so that the web-service can start automatically on server restart.

Setup virtual host on nginx

> cd /var/www/frp
> nano frp.smurfpandey.me.conf 
```
server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;
    server_name comments.smurfpandey.me;
    root /var/www/html;
    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:7500;
    }
    location ~ /.well-known {
        allow all;
    }
    client_max_body_size 50m;
}
```
> sudo ln -s /var/www/frp/frp.smurfpandey.me.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/frp.smurfpandey.me.conf
> sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/frp.smurfpandey.me.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/frp.smurfpandey.me.conf
> sudo service nginx reload

Create systemd service

> sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/frps.service
```
