So I have got my app up and running. However it still runs off the cmd console at the moment. Next steps is for me to build a simple web app interface.
After much research, rather than to setup an entire flask site from scratch. I decided to use cookiecutter-flask from https://github.com/konstantint/cookiecutter-flask boilerplate to quickly get the boilerplate up and running.
Everything looks good in a sense where I understand:
Templating
App function
Static
I still cannot figure out how to get the user registration function working. I keep getting a wsgi error. I know is somewhat related to my database not being installed.
Not specific to that, what I am really looking for is a walk through tutorial on how to get it working by bare minimum and then enhance from there.
I have been looking around for tutorials and walk through but to no avail.
Appreciate any help out there.
After clone you have to do these steps ... These will create the database tables for you...
python manage.py db init
python manage.py db migrate
python manage.py db upgrade
python manage.py server

I created a website that uses vuejs as the frontend and django as the backend with another service running behind everything that im making api calls to.
So django is setup in a way to look at the dist folder of Vuejs and serve it if you run manage.py runserver. but the problem is that my service that I created is
is also in python and it needs to run in a virtualenv in order to work (It uses tensorflow 1.15.2 and this can only run in a contained environment)
I'm sitting here and wondering how I can deploy the django application and keep the virtualenv active and Im coming up with nothing, I've tried doing some research on this but everything I found was not relevant to my problem. I've deployed it and when I close the ssh connection the virtualenv stops.
If there is anyone that can enlighten my ways I would appreciate it.
i think you need to nginx: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-16-04
if you are search for keep states just in terminal i suggest tmux https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki
You can use uWSGI and nginx to deploy Django apps on server. Here's helpful articles:

Django official docs also has a page about it: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/howto/deployment/wsgi/uwsgi/
There are articles from developers so you can refer them in case you get stuck anywhere:

In our Django project(Django 2.1.5), every time we try to run the project we have to give the '--noreload' command in addition to the runserver command, else the project returns an error as,
ValueError: signal only works in main thread
We are using Django signals to communicate between the apps created in Django and Web-sockets in Threading aysnc-mode to connect between the other services involved in the project. When we try to deploy the project in Jenkins, this becomes a problem and we are using Nginx as the webserver for host the application. Is there any possibility to solve the issue of '--noreload' and run the application normally?
We are not sure if its because of the same problem referred above but we have a problem when trying to migrate the changes in the Models in Django, it always returns
No changes Detected
After a quick internet search, we did the migrations by mentioning the app names and it did work, yet the terminal stays still after the migrating and waits to manually terminate the process.
Is there a possible solution to overcome this? and also we would like to know where we go wrong
I am new in Django and this will be my very FIRST Times web deploying. So I am trying to deploy my project to the local server and My project stack is Django with MSSQL so obviously I will need Window.
I was read the documentation and I think I will need WSGI and As the documentation say to deploy with gunicron or uWSGI but both are supported for Unix and not for window. So How can I start this one? This will be the first question.
I would like to know whether I am doing is correct or not.
Now I copy my project to the local server and when I try to run my project like python manage.py runserver it asks me to install Django and other but I thought this environment is working at well my computer and all of the needed application is already installed in the environment. So I still need to install all of my needed apps like Django to this environment again?
If u have any tutorial or can guide me to some useful site, I will be very very appreciated.
Anything u want to know further, Just let me know.
Thanks.
My web server depends on nginx, django, and a lot of python dependencies. I'm wondering if there is a way to create a portable image/script that I can run in a new server and quickly get it up and running.
Is Docker relevant to this?
You should always use git to manage your code. With git you could get your django project in the other server quickly. But just that.
Also you have to migrate your database. Every DB engine have dump options for doing this.
Do not forget to move your static assests. Probably, you've all of them in one directory.
What about your nginx, database installation and configuration? Here is relevant Docker.
With all of this, you should migrate successfully.
I have a django project (a django module/app some other modules that are used from the django one) that uses SQLite. This project is for a University course and now I am asked to supply it in such a way so that it may be installed on some server in our faculty. I'm not the one who's going to install it, and I will not be contacted in case of failure, so I am looking for the easiest, simplest way to supply the project for installation.
I have come across django-jython which supposedly allows one to create WAR files from django projects. However, in the Database Backends section, it says:
SQLite3
Experimental. By now, use it only if you are working on improving it. Or if you are really adventurous.
My overall goal is to deliver this project and I would appreciate any helpful advice. In particular:
Is there another way to pack a django project into a WAR file that supports SQLite?
Is it safe to use SQLite with django-jython in spite of this warning? If so, then how?
Is there any other simple way to pack a django project so that it'll be a piece of cake to install?
If the above answers are "no", then what does it take to change the configuration of the project to use MySQL instead?
You should look into Fabric for easy deployment. I haven't used it myself, but I've heard good things.
I've also had good success quickly and easily setting up servers using Gunicorn with Nginx as a reverse-proxy.
As others have said, using virtualenv, with pip, can quickly
get all your dependencies installed via requirements.txt (from virtualenv).
Some of these blog posts may help:
Tools of the modern Python hacker - virtualenv, pip, fabric
Basic Django Deployment - virtualenv, pip, fabric, rsync
Easy Django Deployment - very quick nginx and gunicorn setup
Edit:
As I reread your post I saw your last bullet point/question. Django is designed to be loosely coupled, meaning that there shouldn't (in most cases) be reasons that one app is dependant on sqlite vs mysql. If you don't need to save the data in the db, changing to MySQL is as easy as starting a mysql server on your machine, and changing the settings.py of your django project. This SO question may help
