I have been using docker containers for running my apps rather than virtualenv. It creates a sandboxed consistent environment from dev to production. And with the new docker exec command, easy to get into to make changes.
I put the following example Dockerfile in my app root on the host to build and deploy the container. FROM phusion/baseimage:0.9.15 > > RUN \ > apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && \ > apt-get install -y \ > build-essential wget curl python python2.7 python-dev python-pip > locate nano \ > > # clean up > && apt-get clean && > rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* > > # create dir for app > RUN mkdir /opt/app > > ENV HOME /root > > #for pyodbc using config on host/myapp/odbc > #COPY /odbc/odbcinst.ini /etc/ > > # get setup.py for the app > COPY /setup.py /opt/app/ > > #for apt-get installs for application dependencies, As the dependencies > can change, I put these and setup at the end so the previous steps' cache > remain the same for quick deployment. > # COPY install_requirements.sh / > # RUN sh install_requriements.sh > > # run setup.py > RUN cd /opt/app \ > && easy_install tw2.tinymce pyodbc \ #external repositories > && pip install -e /opt/app > # or hg clone https://url into /opt/app and run pip install > > WORKDIR /opt/app > sudo docker build -t stuartz/myapps . set variables on host MYAPP=the app folder name DNS1=theIP # from host using nm-tool DNS2=theIP # from host using nm-tool DOMAIN=domain.com # from host using nm-tool if any search PORT=8081 # set port for app same as in development.ini and production.ini setup command: \ sudo docker run -d --name $MYAPP \ -p 127.0.0.1:$PORT:$PORT \ -v /opt/$MYAPP:/opt/app \ -v $MONGOPATH:/data/db \ --dns=$DNS1 --dns=$DNS2 --dns-search=$DOMAIN \ stuartz/myapps \ optionally gearbox cmds here or enter container as below enter container to make changes sudo docker exec -it $MYAPP bash if running for the first time to set up db for the app cd /opt/$MYAPP gearbox setup-app if running setup a second time \ sudo docker stop $MYAPP \ sudo docker rm $MYAPP \ # otherwise sudo docker stop/start $MYAPP DEVELOPMENT setup \ cd /opt/$MYAPP \ gearbox serve --debug --reload PRODUCTION setup \ cd /opt/$MYAPP \ gearbox serve -c production.ini sudo docker commit $MYAPP to save any container state changes I use this Dockerfile in conjunction with nginx as an https proxy_pass to http://localhost:port since I find it easier to provide https coverage through nginx than with apache + mod_wsgi or solo TG server and static files are directed to /opt/$MYAPP/$myapp/public -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
