Hi, I'm really fascinated by python bottle. I was able to make it run on a small account on aruba.it where you have only cgi-bin. But I now realize that Opalstack has tons of resources and more sophisticated way to run bottle. Is somebody here able to write down a basic how-to on how to run python bottle properly on Opalstack behind Nginx, with uWsgi etc.? Thanks!

    giampiero here's one way to run Bottle on uWSGI here at Opalstack:

    1. Create a new uWSGI app via your Opalstack dashboard.
    2. Upload your Bottle app to the uWSGI app directory. Here's the basic app that I'm using for this example:

      # app.py
import bottle

app = application = bottle.Bottle()

@app.route('/')
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    bottle.run(app, host='localhost', port=55555)
    1. Modify the app's uwsgi.ini to point it at the Bottle app (ie app.py in this example, be sure to change 55555 to your app's assigned port):

      [uwsgi]
master = True
http-socket = 127.0.0.1:55555
virtualenv = /home/shelluser/apps/appname/env/
daemonize = /home/shelluser/logs/appname/uwsgi.log
pidfile = /home/shelluser/apps/appname/tmp/uwsgi.pid
workers = 2
threads = 2
wsgi-file = /home/shelluser/apps/appname/app.py
touch-reload = /home/shelluser/apps/appname/app.py
    1. Restart the app:

      /home/shelluser/apps/appname/stop
sleep 2
/home/shelluser/apps/appname/start

    You're done! Your Bottle app is now being served by uWSGI.

      Sean did it again! It works great. Thanks a lot again :-)
