The spawn pool for Zerg demo

This application is an integral part of Zerg demo. It gets initial connection from nginx, spawns a new 'zergling' instance (see https://github.com/maximk/zergling), and instructs nginx to proxy the client connection to the newly spawned instance.

How to setup nginx

nginx configuration file must have a block similar to this:

server {
	listen 80;
	server_name zerg.yourdomain.com;

	# Suppress spawning a second instance just to return 404
	#
	location /favicon.ico {
		return 404;
	}

	# A catapult location to bypass X-Accel-Redirect limitation
	#
	location ~* ^/internal_redirect/(.*?)/(.*?)/(.*) {
		internal;
		set $redirect_host $1;
		set $redirect_port $2;
		set $redirect_uri $3;
		set $redirect_to http://$redirect_host:$redirect_port/$redirect_uri;
		proxy_pass $redirect_to;
	}

	location / {
		proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
		proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
		
		# Put location of your 'spawningpool' application here
		#
		proxy_pass http://localhost:9001;
	}
}
