    Setting up Webfaction for modern Django deployment
    ==================================================

    **last updated**: 4/5/2011

    note that this stuff is always a moving target, much of this has been cribbed
    and combined from various blog posts. Much of the information was out of date
    from those, and if it is more than a couple months after the last updated date
    above, consider some of this likely to now be out of date.

    Getting your basic python and home settings sorted out
    ------------------------------------------------------

    https://gist.github.com/902200::

    mkdir -p ~/bin ~/lib/python2.6/site-packages
    easy_install-2.6 --prefix=$HOME pip
    pip install virtualenv

    nginx and uwsgi can be shared among projects and do not need to be rebuilt for
    each site::

    cd ~
    mkdir tmp src bin sbin etc conf mylogs sock

    Download and make packages
    --------------------------

    http://nginx.org/en/download.html#stable_versions

    ::

    cd src
    curl http://nginx.org/download/nginx-0.8.54.tar.gz | tar -xvz


    http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/wiki/RunOnNginx

    grab upload progress module:

    http://github.com/masterzen/nginx-upload-progress-module

    ::

    git clone https://github.com/masterzen/nginx-upload-progress-module.git

    get uwsgi itself:
    I've found this latest version has compile errors on webfaction while this does not:

    ::

    curl http://projects.unbit.it/downloads/uwsgi-0.9.6.8.tar.gz | tar -xz

    **build uwsgi**::

    cd uwsgi-x-x-x-x
    make -f Makefile.Py26
    cp uwsgi $HOME/bin/

    uwsgi module included by default in nginx since 0.8.40 so you do not need to
    specify it at configure time. Webfaction has sought to make the "logs"
    directory in your home folder owned by root - so we need to configure alternate
    log destinations.

    **build nginx**::

    cd ../nginx-0.8.54/
    ./configure --add-module=../nginx-upload-progress-module/ \
    --prefix=$HOME \
    --error-log-path=$HOME/mylogs/nginx-error.log \
    --lock-path=$HOME/mylogs/nginx.lock \
    --pid-path=$HOME/mylogs/nginx.pid \
    --http-log-path=$HOME/mylogs/nginx-access.log
    make
    make install

    expect to see errors about deprecated sys_errlist: http://nginx.org/en/docs/sys_errlist.html


    Setting up the webfaction app
    -----------------------------

    create custom port listening app::

    cd webapps/<appname>/
    virtualenv venv
    source venv/bin/activate

    Set up Django project
    ---------------------

    ::

    cd out to webapps/<appname>
    django-admin.py startproject test_project

    get the django project settings and urls set up for admin to work

    collect static files::

    manage.py collectstatic

    Get the runtime stuff setup
    ---------------------------

    get project on python path::

    cd venv/<site-packages>
    ln -s $HOME/webapps/<appname> .

    start up nginx, note that it will not daemonize but can be started like this
    for testing::

    nginx -p `pwd`/ -c ../test_project/etc/nginx.conf

    create a wsgi.py file in project root::

    import os
    os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'test_project.settings'

    import django.core.handlers.wsgi

    application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()


    startup uwsgi, again, won't daemonize - you'll need two terminals to run both
    nginx and uwsgi in this test mode::

    uwsgi -p 4 -s $HOME/sock/teststack_uwsgi.sock -H $HOME/webapps/teststack/venv/ --pythonpath $HOME/webapps/teststack/test_project -w wsgi

    You should now be able to load up the Django-admin

    Running the setup with supervisor
    ---------------------------------

    create another custom port app in webfaction control panel

    install supervisor with `pip install supervisor`


    see supervisord.conf

    see start_supervisor.sh
