uWSGI is a fast, flexible and secure web server for deploying applications written in various languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, and Go. Here's how to install it on Manjaro:
Before you start, make sure your Manjaro system is up to date and has some basic development tools installed. You can update your system by running the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Next, install the basic development tools by running this command:
sudo pacman -S base-devel
To install uWSGI on Manjaro, you need to follow these steps:
Clone the repository from GitHub.
git clone https://github.com/unbit/uwsgi.git
Change to the cloned directory.
cd uwsgi
Build the uWSGI binary using the make tool.
make
Install uWSGI globally on your system.
sudo make install
Verify the installation by running the following command:
uwsgi --version
If the installation was successful, you should see the version number of uWSGI.
Now that uWSGI is installed, you need to configure it to run your application. Here's an example of how to configure uWSGI to run a Python application:
Create a configuration file for uWSGI, named myapp.ini:
[uwsgi]
module = myapp
callable = app
master = true
processes = 4
socket = myapp.sock
chmod-socket = 660
vacuum = true
die-on-term = true
The above configuration file specifies the Python module name (myapp), the function within the module to call (app), and the number of processes to run (4). The socket file is named myapp.sock, and its permissions are set to 660. The vacuum option clears the socket file on exit, and die-on-term option makes sure the process is terminated when receiving a SIGTERM signal.
Start uWSGI with the configuration file you created:
uwsgi --ini myapp.ini
This will start uWSGI and listen on the socket specified in the configuration file.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed uWSGI on your Manjaro system and configured it to run your application.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
