How to use Django with Gunicorn
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: bash
|
|
|
|
Gunicorn_ ('Green Unicorn') is a pure-Python WSGI server for UNIX. It has no
|
|
dependencies and can be installed using ``pip``.
|
|
|
|
.. _Gunicorn: https://gunicorn.org/
|
|
|
|
Installing Gunicorn
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Install gunicorn by running ``python -m 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. The simplest invocation of gunicorn is to pass the
|
|
location of a module containing a WSGI application object named
|
|
``application``, which for a typical Django project 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.
