| Switching web servers using Build Configs | 2024-04-03 | daily/2024/04/03/switching-web-servers-using-build-configs |
|
~ | Today, I used my Build Configs tool to easily switch a project from one web server to another. |
Have you been in a situation where you needed to switch something in a project, like the type of database or a payment provider?
Today, I decided to switch a project from NGINX to Apache.
Usually, this would involve using a different base Docker image, creating new configuration files, and changing things like the root directory for my project.
But, because I'd built this into Build Configs, I was able to change a few lines in one file, and when I re-generated the configuration files, this project was running Apache.
This is an excellent example of why I built this tool: to save time and reduce duplication across my projects.
For this change, it did both.
