We have built the Django application dockerized till now there was no issue since we were hosting solution for a client, but now we also need to support in-house deployment which means my docker will be installed at the client machine. I see from the root access I can copy the files inside the docker. How we can save the copy issue from inside docker.
How to add such security in my docker? Please suggest.

Recently I have started a Django server on Azure Web App Service, now I want to add a usage of "ChromoDriver" for web scraping, I have noticed that for that I need to install some additional Linux packages (not python) on the machine. the problem is that it gets erased on every deployment, does it mean that I should switch to Docker ?
Container works, but you can also try to pull down the additional packages in the custom start up file without messing around the machine after the deployment

this last week I have been trying to upload a flask app using AWS Beanstalk.
The main problem for me was loading a very heavy library as part of the bundle (there is a 500mb limit for uploading the bundle code).
Instead, I tried to use requirements.txt file so it would download the library directly to the server.
Unfortunately, every time I tried to include the library name in the requirements file, it failed to load it (torch library).
on pythonanywhere server there is a console which allows you to access the virtual environment and simply type
pip install torch
which was very useful and comfortable.
I am looking for something similar in AWS beanstalk, so that I could install the library directly instead of relying on the requirements.txt file.
I have been at it for a few days now and can't make any progress.
your help would be much appreciated.
another question,
is it possible to load the venv to Amazon-S3 and then access the folder from the beanstalk environment?
Its not a good practice to "manually" install your dependencies or configure your EB env from inside. This is only useful for testing and debugging purposes. Thus keep that it mind.
To get your venv, you have to ssh to your EB instance using regular ssh or web-based clients available in AWS EC2 console when you locate your EB EC2 instance. Session manager should work out-of-the-box to enable you to login to the instance.
When you login to the instance, then to activate your venv, you do:
# start bash
bash
# source venv
source /var/app/venv/staging-*/bin/activate

I'm attempting to deploy a Django app via docker, first locally, and then to a cloud server. I could not find an answer to my initial question before I attempt this: if I run docker-machine create, I'm guessing this should be run from within my virtualenv, right?
This would then grab all of my specific app dependencies, and begin to build certificates to throw in the container? If not, please explain otherwise..
Yes you are correct.
I will try to help you by my experience, if you wanna deploy django apps via docker.
First you need to setup docker machine in your local machine. Please see the
instruction. By default driver that will be used is --driver
virtualbox default.
List what kind of specifics dependencies images of your apps. Ex:
you need nginx, postgres, uwsgi, or you need to fetch an image then
modified that image you can use dockerfile (its the best practice
for you).
I suggested you to use docker-compose. Really its make our project
pretty easy to manage. You have to define all images that you need
for your app in docker-compose file Please read this reference.
After you finished develop your app then you want to deploy in production server (cloud) you just need to copy all your project then running your docker-compose. All images dependencies will be automatically pulled in the cloud.
As a reference, you can see this project (this is an open source project that I developed.) On that project, I use make file to manage docker-compose command and it make easy to manage.
An example of dockerfile
An example of docker-compose.yml
An example of Makefile
Hope this will help you.
I am quite computer-illiterate, but I have managed to utilize the Django framework on my own machine. I have had an account on Amazon Web Service (AWS) for some time, but it appeared rather complex to set-up and to make use of, so I put it of for a while. Then I decided to give it a try, and it was not so hard as I first thought to load a AMI and connect to the server with PuTTY. But since I were already using BitNami's Django-Stack, I decided to take a look at their hosting offer (which builds on AWS). Since they appeared to offer "one-click deployment", I set up a new server through their interface. But then, it seems like the "one-click deployment"-promise is with regard to the server itself. There does not seem to be any interface for deploying Django projects through their site. Having used PuTTY already, and adding WinSCP to my machine, I can acceess the server and load my Django-code unto the server. But then I am lost. The documentation seems a bit thin (look here).
The crux of this is the following: Can anyone make this part of the process more understandable. I.e., how to deploy a Django project on a Linux server with Apache/mod_WSGI?
The other question is: I want to use Postgres. Am I free to install this on the server. Should I opt for EBM (EMB?) for this, or what is the downside of not having EBM?
I hope I am not too unworthy of your attention, thanks!
how to deploy a Django project on a Linux server with Apache/mod_WSGI The Bitnami AMI already comes with all this configured. Once installed try going to the EC2 public url on the default 8000 port and you will see the demo django project setup there. You can add your own project once you have logged into the machine via putty check the /home/bitnami/ directory for the demo project. Copy your project, configure your database The other question is: I want to use Postgres. Am I free to install this on the server Postgres and Mysql are already installed the same way you would do on your local machine. The in your project do ./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:9000 since the 8000 port is already running another application.
