How is websites like pythonanywhere developed?
Are there any other ways to upload python projects on servers publicly?
I want to know if there is a way to straightly create servers and stuff.
Thanks.
I tried pythonanywhere but it didnt work out as i expected.
If I am taking it correct, you want to showcase your projects to the community publically. What I saw in the website is it is a type of online compiler. Means you can only run your code there.
For showing it publically there are many other websites such as the most popular
Github

I'm considering a suggestion to buy a Synology NAS server DiskStation DS720+:
https://www.synology.com/de-de/products/DS720+#specs
to run my python scripts or deploy web apps.
I am currently using heroku free account to deploy a web app.
I can't explain, why my web app delivers wrong output on heroku but works completely fine on my local computer.
No error message when deploying on heroku, eventhough the output is wrong.
Since I know nothing about NAS server, I want to ask if following tasks are possible with the diskstation:
Deploying Python Script and Web App (with Dash and Plotly as backbone)
Hosting dynamic website, not static website (like github pages)
Please pardon me, if these are silly questions, since this area is new for me.
The idea that these are possible and that I have my own cloud server is quite tempting.
Is there a better and more economical option for these purpose?
Thank you in advance for any inputs. Best regards, Gunardi Ali
The model you linked supports Docker, so that would probably be the easiest way to host dynamic websites such as Plotly dashboards.
However, if your apps are not generating the desired output when you run them on a machine other than your local computer then running them on a NAS might not work, either.
EDIT: Rereading your question, I would not suggest buying a Synology NAS if your primary use case is a web server. They are trimmed down for ease of use, but they come with their own set of limitations.
Depending on how resource intensive your applications are you might want to look at an Intel NUC or even a Raspberry Pi. If you plan to use the Synology's other features (file sharing, multi media, …) however, they are a great product.
I make this topic as we have a problem uploading a python archive in Azure. We did a modular code with python, which is a text generator. The code is working on python environment, besides we wanted to upload it to the cloud. When we tried it, we used the App service of Microsoft azure, we didn’t have any trouble while we were doing the process this way. Nevertheless, at the end, the program gave us a json, when we tried to put that URL into the navigator… There’s were the problem is, the generated Jason doesn’t connect with the navigator. We don’t have any clue of what’s happening, because the console doesn´t give any warning or error.
If any of you knows or have a tip for us to solve this problem, I would appreciate it,
Thanks for your attention and have a nice day.
Welcome to Stack Overflow! From what I understand, I suppose you should be going with Azure Automation Runbooks instead of Azure App Service, if you intend to execute or automate a task-like job. You can also test your runbook and implement error handling streams to ensure it works as expected. Please refer to this example for a detailed walkthrough.
Please elaborate your requirement if this is not what you were looking for, and we can explore other alternatives.
i have scripts producing outputs and other scripts reading these. All data should be read/written from/to a database on a server with corresponding information from multiple remote terminals.
I felt like django seems to be a nice solution.
Unfortunately the documentation and examples are only about setting up the data base and accessing it locally or via a browser. I get the impression that django is not offering this since i can not find anything about it and i was searching a lot.
Could someone help or link some examples how to write/read to the database on a server from an other machine?
Cheers,
Daniel
In the end, I figured out with the help of this!
I currently simply have a local website on my Mac. I can view the webpage's HTMl and CSS and run the javascript functions in browser on my computer, but the next step I want to take is incorporating python scripts for accessing a MySQL database and returning results.
I am clearly new to this, and would love some guidance. Right now, on my computer, I have MySQL installed and I can run it in the terminal just fine. What else do I need as far as database and server equipment – if anything – to get some dynamic website running locally? My current, albeit incredibly limited, understanding is that I have a MySQL database stored on my machine that can be accessed through a Python script – also on my machine – and a link to this script in the HTML file. Is this even right, or do you recommend certain tutorials to fill in the gaps or teach me from the ground up?
I am sorry I am asking a lot; the few tutorials I have found have seemed to cover what I am hoping to do. Many thanks in advance.
Here you go. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/intro/install/
Just follow the installation guide, and you'll be up and running in no time.
If you have MySQL installed on your machine along with Python, get a version of MySQLDb library for Python and have fun with it. Moreover, you can do almost any data operation with these combinations. If you want your website to go live (and do not wish to go through web frameworks) just look for a hosting plan that gives you a Python installed server access.
I am new to web development. So be gentle. AND thanks in advance.
I am developing on windows env. and deploying on a linux server w/ Python 2.6.2 installed.
Running apache2.2 as Virtual Host, and I am using mod_wsgi. I plan to serve media files from the same Virtual Host.
I have a django site and I am now ready to deploy. I am stuck, and every site I go to seems to be outdated/incomplete/overmyhead.

...only 2 links as for the newbness
The top link seems to be what I need yet I am still confused on these things:
What does the file structure look like on the server
I cannot change/edit server files myself, I rely on the dba for that
I have django.wsgi, and django.wsgi~, where do those go?
Where do I put my project in relation to those wsgi files?
The httpd.conf file is something that the server has on it? or do I create another?
Do I need to put django in any way shape or form on the server? If so where? And what about the packages like registration, defaults?
Again sorry for the newbness, I have been banging my head for 2 weeks on this.
Any help/links will be greatly appreciated unless they link me to the django-docs. I have read those...A LOT! thanks
Also go read:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/IntegrationWithDjango
and watch:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/WhereToGetHelp?tm=6#Conference_Presentations
The latter includes Django examples and talks a bit about locations, permissions etc.
The first of these is even linked to in the document in the Django documentation.
It doesn't matter where the files go. They just have to be readable/executable by the user that the web server is running under.
I don't know what you mean by django.wsgi~, that sounds like a backup file created by your editor - you don't need that.
Yes the httpd.conf is the configuration file for Apache. Some distributions (eg Debian and Ubuntu) split this up into separate files for each site that the server runs. If your administrator is the only one who can edit files, he will know about this already.
Yes, you need Django, and any third-party packages.

An easier option for you while you are learning this is not to really have to many expenses.
I could also suggest you take a look at Heroku - allows you to easily deploy your applications in minutes.
Up until recently they only supported RoR and they have brought in support for Django and Python - they have some really well documented tutorials as well.
I hope this helps
Heroku Django / Python tutorial
I have written up an simple deployment guide for django applications it can be found here. It goes all the way from project setup and deployment. I also have references setup. I honestly believe it answers all your questions, I would give it a look.
Goodluck.
