Production Deployment

Deploy REROUTE applications to production.

Production Configuration

from reroute import Config

class ProductionConfig(Config):
    DEBUG = False
    PORT = 8000
    HOST = "0.0.0.0"

    # CORS
    ENABLE_CORS = True
    CORS_ALLOW_ORIGINS = ["https://yourdomain.com"]

    # Logging
    VERBOSE_LOGGING = True
    LOG_LEVEL = "WARNING"

Environment Variables

.env: 

REROUTE_PORT=8000
REROUTE_HOST=0.0.0.0
REROUTE_DEBUG=False
REROUTE_CORS_ORIGINS=https://yourdomain.com

Load in your app: 

from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

Using Uvicorn (FastAPI)

# Production server
uvicorn main:app \
    --host 0.0.0.0 \
    --port 8000 \
    --workers 4 \
    --no-access-log

Using Gunicorn

# With Uvicorn workers
gunicorn main:app \
    -w 4 \
    -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker \
    -b 0.0.0.0:8000

Nginx Configuration

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name yourdomain.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    }
}
