==============================
How to use Django with Uvicorn
==============================
.. highlight:: bash
Uvicorn_ is an ASGI server based on ``uvloop`` and ``httptools``, with an
emphasis on speed.
Installing Uvicorn
==================
You can install Uvicorn with ``pip``::
python -m pip install uvicorn
Running Django in Uvicorn
=========================
When Uvicorn is installed, a ``uvicorn`` command is available which runs ASGI
applications. Uvicorn needs to be called with the location of a module
containing an ASGI application object, followed by what the application is
called (separated by a colon).
For a typical Django project, invoking Uvicorn would look like::
uvicorn myproject.asgi:application
This will start one process listening on ``127.0.0.1:8000``. It requires that
your project be on the Python path; to ensure that run this command from the
same directory as your ``manage.py`` file.
For more advanced usage, please read the `Uvicorn documentation <Uvicorn_>`_.
