Tornado (with Websockets) on Red Hat's OpenShift PaaS
Tornado running on OpenShift with Websocket support.
This git repository is a sample application to help you get started with using Tornado on Red Hat's OpenShift PaaS.
Steps to get tornado running on OpenShift
Create an account at http://openshift.redhat.com/
Create a namespace, if you haven't already do so
rhc domain create -n <yournamespace>
Create a python-2.6 or a diy-0.1 application (you can name it anything via -a)
rhc app create tornado python-2.6
OR
rhc app create tornado diy-0.1
Add this github openshift-tornado-websockets repository
cd tornado
git remote add upstream -m master git@github.com:ramr/openshift-tornado-websockets.git
git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master
Then push the repo to OpenShift
git push
That's it, you can now checkout your application on either of the experimental websocket enabled ports:
http://tornado-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com:8000
OR
https://tornado-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com:8443
