Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/PowerDNS-Admin/PowerDNS-Admin/issues/116

In production deployments, python web server is usually not facing users. For performance and stability reasons, there is usually an nginx proxy with uWSGI in front of a python app.

Couple of useful links:

Not sure what this "issue" is for? *WSGI is already supported -- you just have to make the Apache/nginx-configuration yourself (which is a standard WSGI-setup).

Should probably be some examples/instructions/documentation, but the support itself is already there.

Example setup with Apache 2.4 with mod_wsgi;

<VirtualHost *:443>
        ServerName superawesomedns.foo.bar
        ServerAlias [fe80::1]
        ServerAdmin webmaster@foo.bar

        SSLEngine On
        SSLCertificateFile /some/path/ssl/certs/cert.pem
        SSLCertificateKeyFile /some/path/ssl/private/cert.key

        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error-superawesomedns.foo.bar.log
        CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access-superawesomedns.foo.bar.log combined

        DocumentRoot /srv/vhosts/superawesomedns.foo.bar/

        WSGIDaemonProcess pdnsadmin user=pdnsadmin group=pdnsadmin threads=5
        WSGIScriptAlias / /srv/vhosts/superawesomedns.foo.bar/powerdnsadmin.wsgi

        <Directory "/srv/vhosts/superawesomedns.foo.bar/">
                WSGIProcessGroup pdnsadmin
                WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}

                AllowOverride None
                Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks
                SSLRequireSSL
                AllowOverride None
                Require all granted
        </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Content of /srv/vhosts/superawesomedns.foo.bar/powerdnsadmin.wsgi;

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/srv/vhosts/superawesomedns.foo.bar')

from app import app as application

(this implies that the pdnsadmin user/group exists, and that you have mod_wsgi loaded)

Great. I wasn't sure because there was no info/doc about it. Thanks for the examples. Feel free to close this, or use it for documentation update PR.

I don't have much WSGI-experience, so there are no guarantees that the above examples can be classified as "best practice" (-:

But yeah, an example of nginx should probably also be added together with the above, and put into the documentation for future reference.
