Running etesync under nginx and uwsgi
This configuration assumes that etesync server has been installed in the home folder of a non privileged user
called EtesyncUser following the instructions in https://github.com/etesync/server-skeleton. Also that static
files have been collected at /srv/http/etesync_server by running the following commands:
sudo mkdir -p /srv/http/etesync_server/static
sudo chown -R EtesyncUser /srv/http/etesync_server
sudo su EtesyncUser
cd /path/to/etesync
ln -s /srv/http/etesync_server/static static
./manage.py collectstatic
It is also assumed that nginx and uwsgi have been installed system wide by root, and that nginx is running as user/group www-data.
In this setup, uwsgi running as a systemd service as root creates a unix socket with read-write access
to both EtesyncUser and nginx. It then drops its root privilege and runs etesync as EtesyncUser.
nginx listens on the https port (or a non standard port https port if desired), delivers static pages directly
and for everything else, communicates with etesync over the unix socket.
