# **DEPRECATED**
This image is officially deprecated in favor of [the standard `python` image](https://hub.docker.com/_/python/), and will receive no further updates after 2016-12-31 (Dec 31, 2016). Please adjust your usage accordingly.
For most usages of this image, it was already not bringing in `django` from this image, but actually from your project's `requirements.txt`, so the only "value" being added here was the pre-installing of `mysql-client`, `postgresql-client`, and `sqlite3` for various uses of the `django` framework.
For example, a `Dockerfile` similar to the following would be a good starting point for a Django project using PostgreSQL:
```dockerfile
FROM python:3.4
RUN apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
postgresql-client \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY requirements.txt ./
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
COPY . .
EXPOSE 8000
CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:8000"]
```

# What is Django?
Django is a free and open source web application framework, written in Python, which follows the model-view-controller architectural pattern. Django's primary goal is to ease the creation of complex, database-driven websites with an emphasis on reusability and "pluggability" of components.

# How to use this image
## Create a `Dockerfile` in your Django app project
```dockerfile
FROM django:onbuild
```
Put this file in the root of your app, next to the `requirements.txt`.
This image includes multiple `ONBUILD` triggers which should cover most applications. The build will `COPY . /usr/src/app`, `RUN pip install`, `EXPOSE 8000`, and set the default command to `python manage.py runserver`.
You can then build and run the Docker image:
```console
$ docker build -t my-django-app .
$ docker run --name some-django-app -d my-django-app
```
You can test it by visiting `http://container-ip:8000` in a browser or, if you need access outside the host, on `http://localhost:8000` with the following command:
```console
$ docker run --name some-django-app -p 8000:8000 -d my-django-app
```
## Without a `Dockerfile`
Of course, if you don't want to take advantage of magical and convenient `ONBUILD` triggers, you can always just use `docker run` directly to avoid having to add a `Dockerfile` to your project.
```console
$ docker run --name some-django-app -v "$PWD":/usr/src/app -w /usr/src/app -p 8000:8000 -d django bash -c "pip install -r requirements.txt && python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000"
```
## Bootstrap a new Django Application
If you want to generate the scaffolding for a new Django project, you can do the following:
```console
$ docker run -it --rm --user "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v "$PWD":/usr/src/app -w /usr/src/app django django-admin.py startproject mysite
```
This will create a sub-directory named `mysite` inside your current directory.
# Image Variants
The `django` images come in many flavors, each designed for a specific use case.
## `django:<version>`
This is the defacto image. If you are unsure about what your needs are, you probably want to use this one. It is designed to be used both as a throw away container (mount your source code and start the container to start your app), as well as the base to build other images off of.
## `django:onbuild`
This image makes building derivative images easier. For most use cases, creating a `Dockerfile` in the base of your project directory with the line `FROM django:onbuild` will be enough to create a stand-alone image for your project.
While the `onbuild` variant is really useful for "getting off the ground running" (zero to Dockerized in a short period of time), it's not recommended for long-term usage within a project due to the lack of control over *when* the `ONBUILD` triggers fire (see also [`docker/docker#5714`](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/5714), [`docker/docker#8240`](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/8240), [`docker/docker#11917`](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/11917)).
Once you've got a handle on how your project functions within Docker, you'll probably want to adjust your `Dockerfile` to inherit from a non-`onbuild` variant and copy the commands from the `onbuild` variant `Dockerfile` (moving the `ONBUILD` lines to the end and removing the `ONBUILD` keywords) into your own file so that you have tighter control over them and more transparency for yourself and others looking at your `Dockerfile` as to what it does. This also makes it easier to add additional requirements as time goes on (such as installing more packages before performing the previously-`ONBUILD` steps).
