Deployment package for Hello Web App

March 24, 2015 ยท View on GitHub

==================================== Deployment package for Hello Web App

This package will install all the necessary packages for deploying a Django project on Heroku. Developed for the Hello Web App <http://hellowebapp.com>_ book, which teaches beginner web app development using Python and Django.

Packages installed:

  • waitress <https://github.com/Pylons/waitress>_
  • dj-database-url <https://github.com/kennethreitz/dj-database-url>_
  • whitenoise <https://warehouse.python.org/project/whitenoise/>_

This package is similar to django-toolbelt <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-toolbelt/0.0.1/>_ but does not require psycopg2 as a dependency, uses whitenoise rather than dj-static, and waitress rather than gunicorn for Windows compatibility.
