The following is a soup to nuts walkthrough of how to set up and deploy a Django application, powered by Python 3, and PostgreSQL to Amazon Web Services (AWS) all while remaining sane.
How to Configure SSL for Amazon S3 bucket
Yes, SSL works out of the box but you can’t use a custom domain name, you need to use the
s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/keydomain name. The reason is that to use a custom CNAME would require a custom SSL Certificate to be registered and served up by Amazon S3 and they currently don’t allow you to do this.You should be able to access your files via SSL Like this:
If you want to use a pretty domain name from SSL over S3 I’m afraid you’re out of luck. Its just something we have to live with for the time being unfortunately.
Here’s a thread on Amazon Support forums discussing custom SSL Certificates:https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=60502
Amazon S3: is it possible to set HTTP expires headers *on access*?
in Apache’s mod_expires module (which allows you to set the Expires: header behavior), you can set a relative expiration header based on the access time of the file, eg,
ExpiresDefault “access plus 1 years”
.. The Cache-Control: max-age directive provides exactly what you’re asking for. For example:
Cache-Control: max-age=1314000Tells CloudFront (and browsers) that they can cache the object for one year from the time it was originally fetched from the origin. We recommend that publishers set Cache-Control instead of Expires. Is there a reason you need Expires?
Conditionally Load Javascript Based on Media Query
Best practice for a long time has been to load your javascript at the end of the document to improve website performance, however in todays world of mobile devices we need an even faster solution.
@media all and (max-width: 900px) { // styles } if (document.documentElement.clientWidth < 900) { // scripts }
