Setting up Django and your web server with uWSGI and nginx
　　This tutorial is aimed at the Django user who wants to set up a production web server. It takes you through the steps required to set up Django so that it works nicely with uWSGI and nginx. It covers all three components, providing a complete stack of web application and server software.
　　Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design.
　　nginx (pronounced engine-x) is a free, open-source, high-performance HTTP server and reverse proxy, as well as an IMAP/POP3 proxy server.

　　This tutorial makes some assumptions about the system you are using.
　　It is assumed that you are using a Unix-like system, and that it features an aptitude-like package manager. However if you need to ask questions like “What’s the equivalent of aptitude on Mac OS X?”, you’ll be able to find that kind of help fairly easily.
　　While this tutorial assumes Django 1.4 or later, which will automatically create a wsgi module in your new project, the instructions will work with earlier versions. You will though need to obtain that Django wsgi module yourself, and you may find that the Django project directory structure is slightly different.
Concept
　　A web server>directly to Django applications; it needs something that will run the application, feed it requests from web clients (such as browsers) and return responses.
　　A Web Server Gateway Interface - WSGI - does this job. WSGI is a Python standard.
　　uWSGI is a WSGI implementation. In this tutorial we will set up uWSGI so that it creates a Unix socket, and serves responses to the web server via the WSGI protocol. At the end, our complete stack of components will look like this:
the web client  the web server  the socket  uwsgi  DjangoBefore you start setting up uWSGI
virtualenv
　　Make sure you are in a virtualenv for the software we need to install (we will describe how to install a system-wide uwsgi later):
virtualenv uwsgi-tutorialcd uwsgi-tutorialsource bin/activateDjango
　　Install Django into your virtualenv, create a new project, and cd into the project:
pip install Django　　
django-admin.py startproject mysitecd mysite
About the domain and port
　　In this tutorial we will call your domain example.com. Substitute your own FQDN or IP address.
　　Throughout, we’ll be using port 8000 for the web server to publish on, just like the Django runserver does by default. You can use whatever port you want of course, but I have chosen this one so it doesn’t conflict with anything a web server might be doing already.
Basic uWSGI installation and configuration
Install uWSGI into your virtualenv
pip install uwsgi　　Of course there are other ways to install uWSGI, but this one is as good as any. Remember that you will need to have Python development packages installed. In the case of Debian, or Debian-derived systems such as Ubuntu, what you need to have installed is pythonX.Y-dev, where X.Y is your version of Python.
Basic test
　　Create a file called test.py:
# test.pydef application(env, start_response):　　
    start_response('200 OK', [('Content-Type','text/html')])
　　
    return [b"Hello World"] # python3
　　
    #return ["Hello World"] # python2
　　Note
　　Take into account that Python 3 requires bytes().
　　Run uWSGI:
uwsgi --http :8000 --wsgi-file test.py　　The options mean:

• 　　http :8000: use protocol http, port 8000
  
• 　　wsgi-file test.py: load the specified file, test.py
  

　　This should serve a ‘hello world’ message directly to the browser on port 8000. Visit:
http://example.com:8000　　to check. If so, it means the following stack of components works:
the web client  uWSGI  PythonTest your Django project
　　Now we want uWSGI to do the same thing, but to run a Django site instead of the test.py module.
　　If you haven’t already done so, make sure that your mysite project actually works:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000　　And if it that works, run it using uWSGI:
uwsgi --http :8000 --module mysite.wsgi

• 　　module mysite.wsgi: load the specified wsgi module
  

　　Point your browser at the server; if the site appears, it means uWSGI is able to serve your Django application from your virtualenv, and this stack operates correctly:
the web client  uWSGI  Django　　Now normally we won’t have the browser speaking directly to uWSGI. That’s a job for the webserver, which will act as a go-between.
Basic nginx
Install nginx
sudo apt-get install nginx　　
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start    # start nginx
　　And now check that the nginx is serving by visiting it in a web browser on port 80 - you should get a message from nginx: “Welcome to nginx!”. That means these components of the full stack are working together:
the web client  the web server　　If something else is already serving on port 80 and you want to use nginx there, you’ll have to reconfigure nginx to serve on a different port. For this tutorial though, we’re going to be using port 8000.
Configure nginx for your site
　　You will need the uwsgi_params file, which is available in the nginx directory of the uWSGI distribution, or from https://github.com/nginx/nginx/blob/master/conf/uwsgi_params
　　Copy it into your project directory. In a moment we will tell nginx to refer to it.
　　Now create a file called mysite_nginx.conf, and put this in it:
# mysite_nginx.conf# the upstream component nginx needs to connect toupstream django {　　
    # server unix:///path/to/your/mysite/mysite.sock; # for a file socket
　　
    server 127.0.0.1:8001; # for a web port socket (we'll use this first)}# configuration of the serverserver {
　　
    # the port your site will be served on
　　
    listen      8000;
　　
    # the domain name it will serve for
　　
    server_name .example.com; # substitute your machine's IP address or FQDN
　　
    charset     utf-8;
　　

　　
    # max upload size
　　
    client_max_body_size 75M;   # adjust to taste
　　

　　
    # Django media
　　
    location /media  {
　　
        alias /path/to/your/mysite/media;  # your Django project's media files - amend as required
　　
    }
　　

　　
    location /static {
　　
        alias /path/to/your/mysite/static; # your Django project's static files - amend as required
　　
    }
　　

　　
    # Finally, send all non-media requests to the Django server.
　　
    location / {
　　
        uwsgi_pass  django;
　　
        include     /path/to/your/mysite/uwsgi_params; # the uwsgi_params file you installed
　　
    }}
　　This conf file tells nginx to serve up media and static files from the filesystem, as well as handle requests that require Django’s intervention. For a large deployment it is considered good practice to let one server handle static/media files, and another handle Django applications, but for now, this will do just fine.
　　Symlink to this file from /etc/nginx/sites-enabled so nginx can see it:
sudo ln -s ~/path/to/your/mysite/mysite_nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/Deploying static files
　　Before running nginx, you have to collect all Django static files in the static folder. First of all you have to edit mysite/settings.py adding:
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")　　and then run
python manage.py collectstaticBasic nginx test
　　Restart nginx:
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart　　To check that media files are being served correctly, add an image called media.png to the /path/to/your/project/project/media directory, then visit http://example.com:8000/media/media.png - if this works, you’ll know at least that nginx is serving files correctly.
　　It is worth not just restarting nginx, but actually stopping and then starting it again, which will inform you if there is a problem, and where it is.
nginx and uWSGI and test.py
　　Let’s get nginx to speak to the “hello world” test.py application.
uwsgi --socket :8001 --wsgi-file test.py　　This is nearly the same as before, except this time one of the options is different:

• 　　socket :8001: use protocol uwsgi, port 8001
  

　　nginx meanwhile has been configured to communicate with uWSGI on that port, and with the outside world on port 8000. Visit:
　　http://example.com:8000/
　　to check. And this is our stack:
the web client  the web server  the socket  uWSGI  Python　　Meanwhile, you can try to have a look at the uswgi output at http://example.com:8001 - but quite probably, it won’t work because your browser speaks http, not uWSGI, though you should see output from uWSGI in your terminal.
Using Unix sockets instead of ports
　　So far we have used a TCP port socket, because it’s simpler, but in fact it’s better to use Unix sockets than ports - there’s less overhead.
　　Edit mysite_nginx.conf, changing it to match:
server unix:///path/to/your/mysite/mysite.sock; # for a file socket# server 127.0.0.1:8001; # for a web port socket (we'll use this first)　　and restart nginx.
　　Run uWSGI again:
uwsgi --socket mysite.sock --wsgi-file test.py　　This time the socket option tells uWSGI which file to use.
　　Try http://example.com:8000/ in the browser.
If that doesn’t work
　　Check your nginx error log(/var/log/nginx/error.log). If you see something like:
connect() to unix:///path/to/your/mysite/mysite.sock failed (13: Permission　　
denied)
　　then probably you need to manage the permissions on the socket so that nginx is allowed to use it.
　　Try:
uwsgi --socket mysite.sock --wsgi-file test.py --chmod-socket=666 # (very permissive)　　or:
uwsgi --socket mysite.sock --wsgi-file test.py --chmod-socket=664 # (more sensible)　　You may also have to add your user to nginx’s group (which is probably www-data), or vice-versa, so that nginx can read and write to your socket properly.
　　It’s worth keeping the output of the nginx log running in a terminal window so you can easily refer to it while troubleshooting.
Running the Django application with uwsgi and nginx
　　Let’s run our Django application:
uwsgi --socket mysite.sock --module mysite.wsgi --chmod-socket=664　　Now uWSGI and nginx should be serving up not just a “Hello World” module, but your Django project.
Configuring uWSGI to run with a .ini file
　　We can put the same options that we used with uWSGI into a file, and then ask uWSGI to run with that file. It makes it easier to manage configurations.
　　Create a file called `mysite_uwsgi.ini`:
# mysite_uwsgi.ini file[uwsgi]# Django-related settings# the base directory (full path)chdir           = /path/to/your/project# Django's wsgi filemodule          = project.wsgi# the virtualenv (full path)home            = /path/to/virtualenv# process-related settings# mastermaster          = true# maximum number of worker processesprocesses       = 10# the socket (use the full path to be safesocket          = /path/to/your/project/mysite.sock# ... with appropriate permissions - may be needed# chmod-socket    = 664# clear environment on exitvacuum          = true　　And run uswgi using this file:
uwsgi --ini mysite_uwsgi.ini # the --ini option is used to specify a file　　Once again, test that the Django site works as expected.
Install uWSGI system-wide
　　So far, uWSGI is only installed in our virtualenv; we’ll need it installed system-wide for deployment purposes.
　　Deactivate your virtualenv:
deactivate　　and install uWSGI system-wide:
sudo pip install uwsgi# Or install LTS (long term support).pip install http://projects.unbit.it/downloads/uwsgi-lts.tar.gz　　The uWSGI wiki describes several installation procedures. Before installing uWSGI system-wide, it’s worth considering which version to choose and the most apppropriate way of installing it.
　　Check again that you can still run uWSGI just like you did before:
uwsgi --ini mysite_uwsgi.ini # the --ini option is used to specify a fileEmperor mode
　　uWSGI can run in ‘emperor’ mode. In this mode it keeps an eye on a directory of uWSGI config files, and will spawn instances (‘vassals’) for each one it finds.
　　Whenever a config file is amended, the emperor will automatically restart the vassal.
# create a directory for the vassalssudo mkdir /etc/uwsgi　　
sudo mkdir /etc/uwsgi/vassals# symlink from the default config directory to your config filesudo ln -s /path/to/your/mysite/mysite_uwsgi.ini /etc/uwsgi/vassals/# run the emperoruwsgi --emperor /etc/uwsgi/vassals --uid www-data --gid www-data
　　You may need to run uWSGI with sudo:
sudo uwsgi --emperor /etc/uwsgi/vassals --uid www-data --gid www-data　　The options mean:

• 　　emperor: where to look for vassals (config files)
  
• 
  　　uid: the user>
  
• 
  　　gid: the group>
  

　　Check the site; it should be running.
Make uWSGI startup when the system boots
　　The last step is to make it all happen automatically at system startup time.
　　For many systems, the easiest (if not the best) way to do this is to use the rc.local file.
　　Edit /etc/rc.local and add:
/usr/local/bin/uwsgi --emperor /etc/uwsgi/vassals --uid www-data --gid www-data --daemonize /var/log/uwsgi-emperor.log　　before the line “exit 0”.
　　And that should be it!
Further configuration
　　It is important to understand that this has been a tutorial, to get you started. You do need to read the nginx and uWSGI documentation, and study the options available before deployment in a production environment.
　　Both nginx and uWSGI benefit from friendly communities, who are able to offer invaluable advice about configuration and usage.
nginx
　　General configuration of nginx is not within the scope of this tutorial though you’ll probably want it to listen on port 80, not 8000, for a production website.
　　You should also configure a separate nginx location block for serving non-Django files. For example, it’s inefficient to serve static files via uWSGI. Instead, serve them directly from Nginx and completely bypass uWSGI.
uWSGI
　　uWSGI supports multiple ways to configure it. See uWSGI’s documentation and examples.
　　Some uWSGI options have been mentioned in this tutorial; others you ought to look at for a deployment in production include (listed here with example settings):
env = DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=mysite.settings # set an environment variablesafe-pidfile = /tmp/project-master.pid # create a pidfileharakiri = 20 # respawn processes taking more than 20 secondslimit-as = 128 # limit the project to 128 MBmax-requests = 5000 # respawn processes after serving 5000 requestsdaemonize = /var/log/uwsgi/yourproject.log # background the process & log
