Prerequisites for local django deployment Port based routing

Major Step:

Major Step 1: Code and this dependency

Major Step 2: Nginx (Port based routing)

Major Step 3: Domain

Major Step 1: Code and this dependency

1. Clone the code from git (github/bitbucket/gitlab)
2. Install the dependency
3. run the server with port (8000/your choice)
4. run the celery worker (if needed)
5. run the celery beat (if needed)
6. run any other service (if needed)

Major Step 2: Nginx (Port based routing)

You can run multiple application in different port and add the port in nginx configuration file with domain name

1. Install nginx
2. Configure nginx

      server {
        listen 80;
        server_name your_domain_name;
        location / {
            proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
        }
      }
      

   3. Create a symlink in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ with name your_domain_name (for example: ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/your_domain_name /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/your_domain_name)
3. Check the nginx configuration (for example: sudo nginx -t)
4. Restart nginx (for example: sudo service nginx restart)
