Running Booktype on the Nginx web server
========================================

Example commands are for a Debian/Ubuntu based system. It is recommended
to use Supervisor (http://supervisord.org/) or similar software (Upstart
on Ubuntu) to control your Gunicorn or FastCGI processes.

As Gunicorn
===========

Let us imagine our Booktype project is installed in the
*/var/www/mybooktype/mybook/* directory. This directory should be owned
by the user who is going to run the gunicorn\_django process (probably
www-data).

::

    # Install needed packages
    sudo apt-get install nginx 

    # Copy configuration file
    cp /var/www/mybooktype/mybook/gunicorn.nginx /etc/nginx/sites-available/booktype

    # Edit configuration file
    # You should change: server_name and fastcgi_pass
    vi /etc/nginx/sites-available/booktype

    # Enable your Booktype site 
    ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/booktype /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/booktype

    # Restart Nginx
    service nginx restart

    # Activate Python Virtual Environment (IF YOU ARE USING IT)
    source /var/www/mybooktype/bin/activate

    # Install Gunicorn
    pip install gunicorn

    # Load environment variables
    source /var/www/mybooktype/mybook/booktype.env

    # Start Gunicorn (Basic example)
    gunicorn_django -b 127.0.0.1:8000 -w 4

As FastCGI
==========

Let us imagine our Booktype project is installed in
*/var/www/mybooktype/mybook/* directory.

::

    # User www-data should be owner
    sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/mybooktype/mybook/

    # Install needed packages
    sudo apt-get install nginx

    # Copy configuration file
    cp /var/www/mybooktype/mybook/fastcgi.nginx /etc/nginx/sites-available/booktype

    # Edit configuration file
    # You should change: server_name and fastcgi_pass
    vi /etc/nginx/sites-available/booktype

    # Enable your Booktype site 
    ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/booktype /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/booktype

    # Restart Nginx
    service nginx restart

    # Activate Python Virtual Environment (IF YOU ARE USING IT)
    source /var/www/mybooktype/bin/activate

    # Install Flup  (http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/)
    pip install flup

    # Load environment variables
    source /var/www/mybooktype/mybook/booktype.env

    # Start FastCGI process (Basic example)
    django-admin.py runfcgi host=127.0.0.1 port=8000
