The bootstrap flow

Django bootstrapper manage.py uses core/settings.py as the main configuration file
core/settings.py loads the app magic from .env file
Redirect the guest users to Login page
Unlock the pages served by app node for authenticated users

Deployment

The app is provided with a basic configuration to be executed in Docker, Gunicorn, and Waitress.

Docker execution

The application can be easily executed in a docker container. The steps:

Get the code

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/django-dashboard-coreui.git
$ cd django-dashboard-coreui

Start the app in Docker

$ sudo docker-compose pull && sudo docker-compose build && sudo docker-compose up -d

Visit http://localhost:5005 in your browser. The app should be up & running.

Gunicorn

Gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX.

Install using pip

$ pip install gunicorn

Start the app using gunicorn binary

$ gunicorn --bind=0.0.0.0:8001 core.wsgi:application
Serving on http://localhost:8001

Visit http://localhost:8001 in your browser. The app should be up & running.

Waitress (Gunicorn equivalent for Windows) is meant to be a production-quality pure-Python WSGI server with very acceptable performance. It has no dependencies except ones that live in the Python standard library.

Install using pip

$ pip install waitress

Start the app using waitress-serve

$ waitress-serve --port=8001 core.wsgi:application
Serving on http://localhost:8001

Visit http://localhost:8001 in your browser. The app should be up & running.
