Course Description
Hi, welcome to this course on building a production-ready, detailed Django REST API, running on a web server powered by NGINX, on a custom domain name, and served securely over HTTPS with SSL Certificates from Letsencrypt.
This course is NOT for absolute beginners.
We shall achieve our goal by leveraging tools such as Docker, Celery, Redis, Flower, Nginx, Nginx Proxy Manager, Portainer, shell scripts, and more...
This course is targeted at those with AT LEAST 6 months of web development experience, but more is better. Before beginning, you should have some familiarity with the following concepts, in as much as I will try to explain everything.
The concepts we shall cover include:
Docker and running multiple containers
Securing a Django REST API with HTTPS using SSL Certificates
REST APIs with Django and Django Rest Framework
Class-Based Views.
Shell Scripting.
Asynchronous tasks with Celery and Redis
Asynchronous tasks monitoring with Flower
Introduction to API testing with Pytest using factories and fixtures.
Token-based authentication
Working with email in development with Mailhog and in production with Mailgun
Python Test coverage
Serving static and media files with NGINX and white noise
Makefiles and how they make working with Docker easier.
and much much more...........
All this shall be covered step by step so that you can leverage the skills you learn in this course to build even bigger and better applications at scale.
My Hope is that you shall gain immense value from this.
