To recompile SCSS files, follow this setup:
Step #1 - Install tools
Step #2 - Change the working directory to assets folder
$ cd core/static/assetsStep #3 - Install modules (this will create a classic node_modules directory)
$ npm install
// OR
$ yarnStep #4 - Edit & Recompile SCSS files
$ gulp scssThe generated file is saved in static/assets/css directory.
The app is provided with a basic configuration to be executed in Docker, Gunicorn, and Waitress.
Gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX.
Install using pip
$ pip install gunicornStart the app using gunicorn binary
$ gunicorn --bind=0.0.0.0:8001 core.wsgi:application
Serving on http://localhost:8001Visit 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 waitressStart the app using waitress-serve
$ waitress-serve --port=8001 core.wsgi:application
