A management command to start production servers/workers with a consistent interface

Installation

Install this via pip (or your favourite package manager):

pip install django-prodserver

Add the app to your INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "django_prodserver",
]

Configuration

Add the PRODUCTION_PROCESSES setting to your settings.py. Below shows an example with a web process and worker process defined.

The comments show other available backend processes that are available to use.

PRODUCTION_PROCESSES = {
    "web": {
        "BACKEND": "django_prodserver.backends.gunicorn.GunicornServer",
        "ARGS": {"bind": "0.0.0.0:8111"},
    },
    # "web": {
    #     "BACKEND": "django_prodserver.backends.waitress.WaitressServer",
    #     "ARGS": {},
    # },
    # "web": {
    #     "BACKEND": "django_prodserver.backends.uvicorn.UvicornServer",
    #     "ARGS": {},
    # },
    # "web": {
    #     "BACKEND": "django_prodserver.backends.uvicorn.UvicornWSGIServer",
    #     "ARGS": {},
    # },
    "worker": {
        "BACKEND": "django_prodserver.backends.celery.CeleryWorker",
        "APP": "tests.celery.app",
        "ARGS": {},
    },
    # "worker": {
    #     "BACKEND": "django_prodserver.backends.django_tasks.DjangoTasksWorker",
    #     "ARGS": {},
    # },
}

Usage

Once the PRODUCTION_PROCESSES setting has been configured you can then start the processes as follows:

python manage.py prodserver web

python manage.py prodserver worker

Creating a new backend.

Creating a backend is fairly simple. Subclass the BaseServerBackend class, then implement the start_server method which should call the underlying process in the best possible way for a production setting. You can also optionally override prep_server_args method to aid with this to provide any default arguments or formatting to the start_server command.

See django_prodserver.backends for examples of existing backends for inspiration. Pull Request's are welcome for additional backends.
