FYI How to use with NGINX proxy

[geemang2022]

I was having an issue getting the reloads to work. It turns out that NGINX is not allowing the events to be propagated.

upstream web {
  server web:8000;
}

server {
...
  location /__reload__ {
    proxy_pass http://web;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
    proxy_set_header SSL_PROTOCOL https;
    add_header X-DEBUG-RELOAD 1 always;
    proxy_set_header Host   $host;

    proxy_buffering off;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Connection '';
    proxy_set_header Cache-Control 'no-cache';
    chunked_transfer_encoding off;
  }
}

It's quite weird to this kind of hot reloads like development but in production. Actually it is not recommended at all as you are allowing possible attacks easily. Personally, I believe that the best practice here would be to the reload in development and once developed you can do a push to your repository, and from there do the reload via a hook. This way you can achieve the same, but in a more secure and easier to understand way.

I'm sorry that I can't help more with this, but this architecture/functionality you are proposing is extremely rare.
