How to run two web sites or subdomains of a site from a single Django code base.
Each Django app in the project can then power a website on a different domain, but all the apps can still share a single database with a single administrative interface.
I'm Deploying with uWSGI-Nginx-Django
Thanks.
You have to deploy Django apps separately on uwsgi. An official site suggest to use emperor mode. First you have to write Upstart script at /etc/init/uwsgi.conf like this,
# Emperor uWSGI script
description "uWSGI Emperor"
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [06]
# uwsgi location
#env UWSGI=/usr/bin/uwsgi
env UWSGI=/usr/local/bin/uwsgi
env LOGTO=<your log folder>
exec $UWSGI --master --die-on-term --emperor /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/ --pythonpath /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages --uid www-data --gid www-data --logto $LOGTO --enable-threads
In /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/, it'll contain your uwsgi configuration for each Django application. e.g. /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/app1.ini
Here's the sample configuration that I use.
[uwsgi]
; define variables to use in this script
; process name for easy identification in top
project = <project name>
base_dir = /<your base directory>/
chdir = %(base_dir)
pythonpath = /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
http = 0.0.0.0:8000
uid = www-data
gid = www-data
procname = %(project)
; Enable master mode
; uWSGI’s built-in prefork+threading multi-worker management mode, activated by flicking the master switch on. For ; all practical serving deployments it’s not really a good idea not to use master mode.
master = true
master = 1
; run master process as root
master-as-root = true
; This value needs to be tuned
workers = 4
; Create pid file for easier process management
pidfile=/run/uwsgi/%(project).pid
# Specify your Django app here
module = mysite.wsgi:application
#or
#wsgi-file = %(base_dir)/<your wsgi file>.py
log-reopen = true
logto = /<your log directory>
chmod-socket = 666
vacuum = True
enable-threads = True
# Enable stats. View using `uwsgitop localhost:4000`
stats = :4000
; unix socket (referenced in nginx configuration)
socket = /run/uwsgi/%(project).sock
To run two web sites or subdomains of a site from a single Django code base, you need to set your domain at server_name directive for each Django application For example /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/yourweb1.conf that's bind to DjangoApp1
server_name app1.yourweb.com
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/yourweb2.conf that's bind to DjangoApp2
server_name app2.yourweb.com
