I'm looking for some tool (or set of tools) that could help me automate deploying Django projects with all required dependencies.

I googled for some solutions but I am curious what are your favorite ones.

I'll second meder's suggestion: user virtualenv + pip. These will give isolated environments that can be mantained and replicated easily.

Once you got that running, you have two choices:

  • fabric: Is great for simpler setups. You can script many deploy situations (code checkout, multiple servers, etc). Fabric makes little assumptions on what and how you are deploying, so it's pretty flexible.
  • Zope's buildout : is more complex and harder to setup, but can do pretty much any deploy scenario you throw at it.

Best regards

You can also have a look at silver-lining. It's a bit early-on, but seems okay, as long as you are doing everything the same way in your project.

  • Yeah, I feel the same way. I would love to move to this type of deployment, but I can't really change the deployment system of my current project to this right now. – Matthew Schinckel Jul 12 '10 at 00:24
  • @MatthewSchinckel can you update the link for silver-lining. I tried to google but nothing turned up. – kt14 Aug 19 '16 at 18:40

Are you looking for something like pip requirements?
