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-atlantis-dark.git
$ cd django-dashboard-atlantis-dark

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
