Visit http://ip-address-of-your-instance to see your web app live!

Instructions

Installing the DeployDjango script

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yask123/DeployDjango/master/deploydjango.sh
$ chmod +x deploydjango.sh

From your Django App’s root directory (Where manage.py file exists).

./deploydjango.sh project_name

Notes:

1. Script works for Ubuntu instance only!
2. Make sure port 80 is open (For your app to be accessible to users after deployment) 

Behind the scene

The script would run your django app with gunicorn on port 8000, and would use nginx reverse proxy settings to make your app accessible from port 80. 

The script does the following things:

• Install nginx,python-pip, gunicorn.
• Set up the correct nginx configuration for your django app
• Start nginx service on your instance
• Start your app with gunicorn
• Perform tests to verify if deployment was successful (ToDo)
