wtdeploy is a toolkit built on top of fabric, that allows you to deploy django applications on ubuntu distribution using apache and mysql

installing

$ pip install -e git+git://github.com/wellnesstelecom/wtdeploy.git#egg=wtdeploy

project configuration

configure your django project:

• local_settings must be imported at the end of settings file:

    from local_settings import *
  

• put requirements.txt at the same level as settings.py.

** prepare deployment files **

$ cd myproject
$ machine_gun init

deploy/localhost folder and a very basic fabfile.py will be created. Edit fabfile.py for more info.

• Edit deploy/localhost/django/local_settings.py if you need, it will be used in the host with this configuration (configuration for each host is selected in fabfile.py)

• check if you need to change deploy/localhost/django/app.wsgi, virtualhost, cron files

and finally execute:

$ fab myhost install
$ fab myhost deploy

$ svn commit

deploy the changes

$ fab myhost deploy
