Build a Django + flup + nginx environment in Ubuntu

First, we must understand the role of these three in this environment.

1. nginx :( "engine X") is a high-performance HTTP and reverse proxy server, which works similar to Apache. It can process some static file requests. For dynamic file requests, it can distribute requests to different dynamic languages through FastCGI.

 

2. flup: it is a web server software written in Python. It can accept requests from nginx and execute the corresponding PythonCodeTo return the result to nginx.

3. DJANGO: a python-based Web framework. It can be used for basic things, such as Cookie, session management, template mechanism, and permission management.

Before setting up the environment, you must install the python environment. This article uses python2.6.5. The installation of python is not described here.

1. Install related support files

Setuptools: setuptools is required to install the python class library through setup. py.

 
Wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.6/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.eggsh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg
 

PCRE, class library related to regular expressions, ow.ssh, required for nginx installation.

Wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/pcre/files/pcre/8.02/pcre-8.02.tar.gz/downloadtar zxvf pcre-8.02.tar.gzcd pcre-8.02./configuremakemake installcd .. apt-Get install OpenSSL libssl-devel
 

Zlib, compression-related class libraries, which are required by many software.

 
Wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/libpng/zlib/1.2.5/zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz? Use_mirror = nchctar zxvf zlib-1.2.5.tar.gzcd zlib-1.2.5./configuremake make installcd ..
 

2. Install Django

 
Wget http://www.djangoproject.com/download/1.2.1/tarball/tar zxvf Django-1.2.1.tar.gzcd Django-1.2.1python setup. py installcd ..
 

To use MySQL DATA, see install django1.2 and MySQL-python in Linux.

3. Install flup

 
Wget http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/dist/flup-1.0.2.tar.gztar zxvf flup-1.0.2.tar.gzcd flup-1.0.2python setup. py installcd ..
 

4. Install nginx

Wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-0.8.39.tar.gztar zxvf nginx-0.8.39.tar.gzcd nginx-0.8.39./configuremakemake instll
 

Note: After installation, a piece of configuration summary information is displayed, which can be saved for future use.

5. Configuration

Configure flup and flup to communicate with each other through FastCGI.ProgramIn the server {...} configuration section, add the following configuration in the location {...} configuration section:

 
Fastcgi_pass Unix:/tmp/mysite. sock; Response path_info $ response; Response request_method $ request_method; Response QUERY_STRING $ QUERY_STRING; Response content_type $ content_type; Response content_length $ content_length; authorization; Response off; Response server_protocol $ server_protocol; fastcgi_param server_port $ server_port; fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $ SERVER_NAME;
 

6. Run

Create a Django Project

Cd ~ Django-admin.py startproject mysite
 

Run Django in CGI Mode

 
~ /News/manage. py runfcgi daemonize = true socket =/tmp/mysite. Sock
 

Start nginx

 
/Usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
 

Enjoy the fun of Django!
