Hi,

I’m new to the list. I started to learn the Python web framework Flask  
and I would like to try it in production environment too. I managed to  
bring Flask together with uwsgi and nginx. My Flask application is  
available at the address localhost:81 .

I would like to add several applications and I want them to be  
available under different URLs. For instance, if I have two projects  
called “hello” and “world”, I want to access them as  
localhost:81/hello/ and localhost:81/world/ . The problem is I can’t  
figure out how to configure nginx for this.

Here is my current setup:

- The project “hello” is in this directory:  
/home/jabba/public\_pyapps/hello/
- Its nginx entry:

server {  
listen 81;  
server\_name localhost;  
charset utf-8;  
client\_max\_body\_size 75M;

```
location / { try_files $uri @yourapplication; }
location @yourapplication {
    include uwsgi_params;
    uwsgi_pass 

```

unix:/home/jabba/public\_pyapps/hello/hello\_uwsgi.sock;  
}  
}

It’s available at localhost:81 .

Questions:

(1) How to make it available under localhost:81/hello/ instead?

(2) If I add a new application (e.g. “world”) next to previous ones,  
how to add it to nginx?

Thanks,

Laszlo

I tried that but it didn’t work.
