Deploy Django using Nginx, Celery, Redis and Postgresql with Docker
A boilerplate to deploy Django with cool stuff. Also serves as an example project from these tutorial:
- Deploy Django, Gunicorn, NGINX, Postgresql using Docker
- Serve Static Files by Nginx from Django using Docker
- Docker: Use Celery in Django(Redis as Broker)
Where it is described how this boilerplate was created from scratch so that you can build your own.
Advantages
- Ready to use with your django project.
- Combined with NGINX, Redis, Celery to handle relevent things.
- Alpine based images are used, so that sizes of the images are compartively low.
- Now comes built it with Numpy, Scipy and Pandas support. So you can integrate your datascience projects with this. Instructions for integrating these libraries are also shared in the
Dockerfile. - With Numpy, Pandas and Scipy dependecies installed, the total size is 657MB(may differ if you have more packages). Without these, size reduces to 390MB.
- Now comes with support to install Pillow using django.
Now Featuring Numpy, Scipy and Pandas
In the Dockerfile, there are detailed instructions on how to install data science dependencies.
PS: Here is a gist which is more useful for Numpy, Pandas, Scipy etc. And it is usable with this project's docker-compose.yml file. Just you need to replace the Dockerfile from ./compose directory with the one in the gist.
Basic Usage
- First run
make buildinside root directory. - Then run
make upto start up the project for first time. - Use/update environment variables from
.envsfolder.
Checkout the commands section for more usage.
Preview
A default Django project resides in src directory. So, when you start the project, you will see the following screen in 8000 port:
Also when you access the django container log via make log-web, you will see the following:
