1052130 - [Wharfie] Serve Zamboni static/media assets through nginx rather than runserver

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Marketplace Graveyard :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Jared Lockhart [:jlockhart]]

Presently, static assets are hosted directly using runserver which clutters the requests to Zamboni.  There should be a rule in nginx which hosts the static assets for the devhub directly.

Hint:

        # Conditionally handle media depending on where we are using referer (sic) header.
        location /media {
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            if ($http_referer  ~ '^http://[^/]*?/mozpay') {
                proxy_pass http://webpay;
                break;
            }
            if ($http_referer !~ '^http://[^/]*?/(admin|developers|login\?to=/(admin|reviewers|developers)|files|lookup|media/css/(ecosystem|devreg|gaia|mkt)|reviewers|services)') {
                proxy_pass http://fireplace;
                break;
            }
            alias /home/ubuntu/zamboni/media/;
       }
    }

We should avoid at all costs needing the referer config, as it's a massive pain to maintain. 

This should be fine though as zamboni is now serving fireplace we shouldn't have conflicting /media locations.
