Select "Nginx HTTP SErver - Second Edition" (or whichever ebook interests you). You should see buttons to view PDF, ePub, etc., and one of the options is "Code Files."williamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512188703456595011.post-39176748060279433032013-09-08T07:41:10.128+08:002013-09-08T07:41:10.128+08:00Cool, thanks.

If you insist on getting the ones I provide with my book I can ask the publisher. But again those scripts can be found all over the web...Clément Nedelcuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168228978102132365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512188703456595011.post-91468409247658478862013-09-07T19:00:50.044+08:002013-09-07T19:00:50.044+08:00Hi, not sure if you'll see comments on really ...Hi, not sure if you'll see comments on really old posts but I'm having real issues getting the code bundle from Packt for the second edition.

unfortunately with only 250 pages and...Hello Bob, <br /><br />unfortunately with only 250 pages and the necessity to cover basic topics, there was not much room left for advanced topics like the ones you mentioned. It would be interesting to see if someone could come up with a book detailing more complex topics, sadly I do not have the energy to do so after having spent months on this one.<br /><br />With the stuff that you have achieved (setting up Nginx+PHP+etc.) you clearly don't need this book, you probably wouldn't learn much other than details on specific directives. At best, you'd enjoy the directive reference and the module details and examples, but I think you're probably confident enough to do everything that's covered in the book by yourself.<br /><br />Anyhow, thanks for asking; I usually hang out on the #nginx IRC channel on Freenode if you have any more questions or if you want to talk to hardcore Nginx users.Clément Nedelcuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168228978102132365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512188703456595011.post-86873053212721531242010-08-02T10:06:22.490+08:002010-08-02T10:06:22.490+08:00Hey, I recently found your book on nginx's hom...Hey, I recently found your book on nginx's homepage. Sadly, I have yet to speak with one person who has read it (did some web searches as well as checked out the nginx IRC channel on freenode). I've been using nginx few a few months now, very happy with it. Running Nginx/PHP(fastcgi)/Mysql on a very low end server, and planning on setting up a nginx/python(maybe mako/pylons)/mysql on another. To get to my point, it seems like the book covers some slightly too basic topics, and worries me that there may be to much fluff and not as dense material. Anyway, I have a few questions, and even tho your opinions may be biased (I mean, you are the author, I hope you feel good about your work), I don't have anyone else to ask.<br /><br />I'm interested in how much time is spent on the following topics:<br />PHP optimizations (based on server hardware, and number of server requests)<br />Python (how detailed do you go on running python with nginx... as well as are topics such as integrating any popular frameworks)<br />Scalability (multiple servers... from load balancing, to concentrating on servers for specific tasks)<br />Windows (I don't do anything with windows, other than graphic design, and things like putty are trivial, I just wanna know how much time is devoted to the people that do, as well as is there any time spent on .NET and ASP topics)<br /><br />Anyway, I have more to ask, but figured I'd start somewhere. I'm very glad to see that someone has written a book on this topic (finally) and will probably end up ordering it either way, just figured I'd get some more info since there are no reviews yet (maybe all/most nginx users are broke/cheap bastards like me), and figured others might be interested.bob.monteverdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08791790474987565058noreply@blogger.com
