This repository comes with a Dockerfile and a Procfile. This means you can build a Docker image and run a container from it or deploy the app on Heroku or your Dokku installation.

The app requires a PostgreSQL database so make sure one is running in the same Docker network.

1. Create a Docker network or use an existing one.
2. Run a PostgreSQL container.
3. Build an image with the provided Dockerfile and run a container while setting the necessary environment variables, see below.
4. run python /beez/beez/manage.py migrate with docker exec.
5. Reverse proxy to the app.

1. Create a PostgreSQL database and link it to the app.
2. Make sure DATABASE_URL contains the correct connection string.
3. Set the necessary environment variables, see below.
4. Push the code to your Dokku/Heroku remote.

How to use Django with Gunicorn. Beez runs on Python ≥3.5.

• BEEZ_SECRET_KEY -- Defaults to a randomly generated key. I strongly recommend that you set this to something static.
• BEEZ_HOSTNAMES -- Add hostnames to ALLOWED_HOSTS which is empty by default. List of hosts separated with ,, e. g. beez.com,localhost
• BEEZ_OWM_API_KEY -- API key for OpenWeatherMap.
• DATABASE_URL -- Set a database URL, e. g. postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/beez. If this is not set, a local SQLite database file will be used instead.
• DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE -- Defaults to beez.settings which in turn defaults to beez.settings.prod. Set to beez.settings.dev when developing
