        }

}

You can create a file with sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/myproject and then type the following into the file:

nginx
        server {
            listen 80;
            server_name yourip;

            access_log /var/log/nginx/website-name.log;

            location /static/ {
                alias /opt/myproject/myproject/path-to-static-files/;
            }

            location / {
                proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
                proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
                add_header P3P 'CP="ALLDSP COR PSAa PSDa OURNOR ONL UNI COM NAV"';
            }
        }

Now you need to set up a symbolic link in the /etc/nginx/sites-enabled directory that points to this configuration file. That is how NGINX knows this site is active. Change directories to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled like this: cd /etc/nginx/sites-enabled sudo ln -s ../sites-available/myproject and then go to /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and uncomment # server_names_hash_bucket_size 64; and finally sudo service nginx restart.

also dont forget about ufw.
