- Deployment
- ==========
-
- Deployment for a Django project is easier than most other frameworks and
- languages but it's harder than a PHP project. We recommend using Docker to
- deploy Pinry and we already have a Dockerfile created for you to do this. If
- you'd like to deploy via another method please see `Django's documentation`_ on
- the subject.
-
-
- Notes On Deployment
- -------------------
-
- While we don't want to go in depth on Django deployment you will need a few tips
- for Pinry specific configuration. While most of Pinry acts like a standard
- Django project we have a special settings setup.
-
- By default Django just has a single ``settings.py`` file in it's project folder,
- we deviate from this in that we have a ``settings`` folder, ``pinry/settings``.
- To change the base settings of Pinry you can play with
- ``pinry/settings/__init__.py`` but never import or run directly by pointing to
- ``pinry/settings`` or ``pinry/settings/__init__.py``, instead use
- ``pinry/settings/development.py`` and ``pinry/settings/production.py``. For a
- production deployment you're going to need to edit ``production.py`` and point
- that at the correct database and add your own ``SECRET_KEY``. Also note that
- you're going to have to add the setting ``ALLOWED_HOSTS`` to point at the host
- names going to your server or Django will block everyone trying to access your
- site.
-
-
- Using Docker
- ------------
-
- Our supported and suggested way to deploy Pinry is using Docker. We provide
- support and instructions for that over at the `docker-pinry GitHub repository`_.
