I'm currently having difficulty passing environment variables into Gunicorn for my Django project. I'm on the latest 19.1 version. I have a wsgi.py file like so:
import os
import sys
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
PROJECT_DIR = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(BASE_DIR, '..'))
sys.path.append(PROJECT_DIR)
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "app.settings")
def application(environ, start_response):
_application = get_wsgi_application()
os.environ['SERVER_ENV'] = environ['SERVER_ENV']
os.environ['SERVER_ID'] = environ['SERVER_ID']
return _application(environ, start_response)
When I run gunicorn from the command line as:
SERVER_ENV=TEST SERVER_ID=TEST gunicorn -b 127.0.0.1:8080 --error-logfile - --access-logfile - app.wsgi:application
and I then pass a request to gunicorn I keep getting:
2014-08-01 08:39:17 [21462] [ERROR] Error handling request
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/virtualenv/python-2.7.5/django-1.5.5/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gunicorn/workers/sync.py", line 93, in handle
self.handle_request(listener, req, client, addr)
File "/opt/virtualenv/python-2.7.5/django-1.5.5/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gunicorn/workers/sync.py", line 134, in handle_request
respiter = self.wsgi(environ, resp.start_response)
File "/opt/sites/itracker/wsgi.py", line 18, in application
os.environ['SERVER_ENV'] = environ['SERVER_ENV']
KeyError: 'SERVER_ENV'
Printing out the environ values confirms that the environment variables are not being passed in. I've tried setting the environment variables in the virtualenv activation script and also in a dedicated gunicorn shell script and also by setting the environment variables using the --env flag but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?
