How to use Django with Gunicorn
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: bash
|
|
|
|
Gunicorn_ ('Green Unicorn') is a pure-Python WSGI server for UNIX. It has no
|
|
dependencies and is easy to install and use.

Installing Gunicorn
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Installing gunicorn is as easy as ``pip install gunicorn``. For more
|
|
details, see the `gunicorn documentation`_.

Running Django in Gunicorn as a generic WSGI application
|
|
========================================================
|
|
|
|
When Gunicorn is installed, a ``gunicorn`` command is available which starts
|
|
the Gunicorn server process. At its simplest, gunicorn just needs to be called
|
|
with the location of a module containing a WSGI application object named
|
|
`application`. So for a typical Django project, invoking gunicorn would look
|
|
like::
|
|
|
|
gunicorn myproject.wsgi
|
|
|
|
This will start one process running one thread listening on ``127.0.0.1:8000``.
|
|
It requires that your project be on the Python path; the simplest way to ensure
|
|
that is to run this command from the same directory as your ``manage.py`` file.
|
|
|
|
See Gunicorn's `deployment documentation`_ for additional tips.
