Serverless Django with Docker & Google Cloud Run

Set up a virtual environment with Pipenv and configure a VSCode workspace for Django. Create a dev folder, open it in VSCode, and install Django with Python 3.8.

Stage your Django project for production by creating separate local and production settings modules, migrate with a production database, and validate behavior using environment-based settings.

Build a production-aware home page view that uses Django settings to render an environment-based message, with separate secret keys, environment variables, debug off, and a production database.

Learn how to run Django with WSGI in production using gunicorn or Waitress, configure production settings, manage allowed hosts, and use local scripts to streamline deployment.

Learn to create a cloud sql postgres instance on the Google cloud platform, configure databases and users, capture the connection name, and set up a proxy for Cloud Run.

Install the cloud sql proxy to connect your local machine to a live cloud sql instance for postgres. Download the correct binary and create a startup script.

Create a service account in Google Cloud Platform and assign the Cloud SQL Client role. Generate a JSON key, download it, and store it locally.

Set up and run the Cloud SQL proxy with your project’s instance and service account key, update the proxy script, and enable the Cloud SQL Admin API to start locally.

Set up a local Postgres and a Django proxy to connect to Google Cloud SQL, install psycopg2-binary, configure settings, and run migrations for local development.

Create a dockerfile to containerize Django project using Python 3.8 slim, set app home, copy code, and install dependencies. Bind gunicorn to 0.0.0.0:PORT for cloud run with entry point script.

Build and run a Django app in Docker, adjust the Dockerfile, make the entry point executable, configure ports and environment variables, and test locally before cloud run.

Learn how to build a local docker image, tag it for Google Cloud Registry, and push it to GCR, then verify the container appears in your registry.

Learn to build and push a dockerized Django app using Google Cloud Build with gcloud commands and Google Container Registry. Manage CI, artifacts, and Cloud Run deployment workflows.

Deploy a serverless Django app to Google Cloud Run by pushing a Docker image from container registry with a deploy script, selecting a managed region, and configuring production settings.

Make changes in production, build, and deploy new revisions on Cloud Run, adding environment variables like secret key and database credentials while testing with the new revision.

Run production migrations on cloud run via a local proxy, create a production database and user, then deploy with environment variables and the instance connection name for cloud database access.

Build and deploy a serverless container app on Google Cloud Run with Git triggers. Prepare production with static file serving, domain mapping, transactional emails, and Django deployment checks.
