Khaganat's web site

Requirements

• Python 3.6 or newer
• pipenv
• git
• gettext

Quick deployment

git clone https://git.khaganat.net/Tycho/khaganat-web.git khaganat-web
cd khaganat-web
vim .env
PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1 pipenv --three update
pipenv run ./manage.py migrate
pipenv run ./manage.py collectstatic
pipenv run ./manage.py compilemessages
pipenv run ./manage.py createsuperuser

Then configure your server as you like. One way to deploy is to use Nginx and uWSGI:

• How to use Django with uWSGI
• Setting up Django and your web server with uWSGI and nginx

You can get the virtualenv's path using pipenv --venv. Do not forget to check the deployment checklist.

Quick update

git pull
pipenv --three update
pipenv run ./manage.py migrate
pipenv run ./manage.py collectstatic
pipenv run ./manage.py compilemessages

Then restart the WSGI server.

Nginx + uWSGI on ArchLinux

Install nginx-mainline, uwsgi and uwsgi-plugin-python.

# mkdir -p /srv/http/khaganat/static
# cd /srv/http/khaganat
# git clone https://git.khaganat.net/Tycho/khaganat-web.git app
# cd app
# PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1 pipenv --three update

Create /etc/uwsgi/khaganat.ini with the appropriate environment variables:

[uwsgi]
chdir = /srv/http/khaganat/app
home = /srv/http/khaganat/app/.venv
module = khaganat.wsgi:application
plugins = python
socket = /srv/http/khaganat/uwsgi.sock
uid = http
gid = http
threads = 2
vacuum = True
env = KHAGANAT_SECRET_KEY="generate a new one"
env = KHAGANAT_DEBUG=False
env = KHAGANAT_STATIC_ROOT=/srv/http/khaganat/static
env = KHAGANAT_HOSTNAMES=khaganat.local

Create /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/uwsgi@khaganat.service :

[Unit]
Description=uWSGI service unit
After=syslog.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/uwsgi --ini /etc/uwsgi/%I.ini
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
ExecStop=/bin/kill -INT $MAINPID
Restart=always
Type=notify
StandardError=syslog
NotifyAccess=all
KillSignal=SIGQUIT

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Configure nginx :

server {
	listen	80;
	listen	[::]:80;
	server_name	"khaganat.local";

	include custom/headers.conf;

	location /static {
		root /srv/http/khaganat/;
	}

	location / {
		uwsgi_pass unix:///srv/http/khaganat/uwsgi.sock;
		include uwsgi_params;
	}
}

Finish the installation:

# cd /srv/http/khaganat/app
# pipenv run ./manage.py migrate
# pipenv run ./manage.py collectstatic
# pipenv run ./manage.py compilemessages
# pipenv run ./manage.py createsuperuser
# chown -R http:http /srv/http/khaganat/
# systemctl enable uwsgi@khaganat.service
# systemctl start uwsgi@khaganat.service
# systemctl enable nginx.service
# systemctl start nginx.service
