installing django in debian jessie with python3, mysql, apache2 and mod-wsgi directly

Packages

aptitude install python3-django python3 libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3 python3-mysql.connector apache2

(optionally add a local mysql server if you need one locally)

aptitude install mysql-server

Make sure the wsgi module is enabled

dpkg-reconfigure libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3

Create workspace, in my case instance zealot is installed in /var/django/zealot

mkdir -p /var/django && cd /var/django
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/bin/django-admin.py startproject zealot .

Create your database (log into mysql first as a user that can do this)

CREATE DATABASE database;
CREATE USER 'newuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL ON database.* TO 'newuser'@'localhost';

(obviously these are placeholder values, use real names and a secure password!)

example apache config

Below apache config works with python 3 and the debian django repository (specifically, the static alias is on a separate location). Outside of that in my example the django instance named zealot is stored in /var/django/zealot. Apache config file location in debian:

/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName fuego.lippmann.us
Alias /media/ /var/django/media/
Alias /static/ /usr/share/python-django-common/django/contrib/admin/static/

<Directory /var/django/static>
Require all granted
</Directory>

<Directory /var/django/media>
Require all granted
</Directory>

 WSGIDaemonProcess zealot python-path=/var/django:/usr/lib/python3.4
 WSGIProcessGroup zealot
 WSGIScriptAlias / /var/django/zealot/wsgi.py

 <Directory /var/django/zealot/>
 <Files wsgi.py>
 Require all granted
 </Files>
 </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

example settings.py

In my example /var/django/zealot holds this file and again the project is named zealot so settings match that. Adjust the database and other parameters (timezone, domain, etc.) according to your own environment.

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

            '.lippmann.us.',  # Allow domain and subdomains

model.py tricks

enforce uniqueness of multiple fields in a model table

class SomeModel(models.Model):
   class Meta:
       unique_together = (("object_name", "something_database"),)
