| Origin uWSGI
 | |
| ============
 | |
| 
 | |
| How uWSGI is implemented by distributors is different.  uWSGI itself
 | |
| recommend two methods
 | |
| 
 | |
| `systemd.unit`_ template files as described here `One service per app in systemd`_.
 | |
| 
 | |
|   There is one `systemd unit template`_ and one `uwsgi ini file`_ per uWSGI-app
 | |
|   placed at dedicated locations.  Take archlinux and a searx.ini as example::
 | |
| 
 | |
|     unit template    -->  /usr/lib/systemd/system/uwsgi@.service
 | |
|     uwsgi ini files  -->  /etc/uwsgi/searx.ini
 | |
| 
 | |
|   The SearXNG app can be maintained as know from common systemd units::
 | |
| 
 | |
|     systemctl enable  uwsgi@searx
 | |
|     systemctl start   uwsgi@searx
 | |
|     systemctl restart uwsgi@searx
 | |
|     systemctl stop    uwsgi@searx
 | |
| 
 | |
| The `uWSGI Emperor`_ mode which fits for maintaining a large range of uwsgi apps.
 | |
| 
 | |
|   The Emperor mode is a special uWSGI instance that will monitor specific
 | |
|   events.  The Emperor mode (service) is started by a (common, not template)
 | |
|   systemd unit.  The Emperor service will scan specific directories for `uwsgi
 | |
|   ini file`_\s (also know as *vassals*).  If a *vassal* is added, removed or the
 | |
|   timestamp is modified, a corresponding action takes place: a new uWSGI
 | |
|   instance is started, reload or stopped.  Take Fedora and a searx.ini as
 | |
|   example::
 | |
| 
 | |
|     to start a new SearXNG instance create --> /etc/uwsgi.d/searx.ini
 | |
|     to reload the instance edit timestamp  --> touch /etc/uwsgi.d/searx.ini
 | |
|     to stop instance remove ini            --> rm /etc/uwsgi.d/searx.ini
 | |
| 
 | |
| Distributors
 | |
| ============
 | |
| 
 | |
| The `uWSGI Emperor`_ mode and `systemd unit template`_ is what the distributors
 | |
| mostly offer their users, even if they differ in the way they implement both
 | |
| modes and their defaults.  Another point they might differ is the packaging of
 | |
| plugins (if so, compare :ref:`install packages`) and what the default python
 | |
| interpreter is (python2 vs. python3).
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fedora starts a Emperor by default, while archlinux does not start any uwsgi
 | |
| service by default.  Worth to know; debian (ubuntu) follow a complete different
 | |
| approach.  *debian*: your are familiar with the apache infrastructure? .. they
 | |
| do similar for the uWSGI infrastructure (with less comfort), the folders are::
 | |
| 
 | |
|     /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/
 | |
|     /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/
 | |
| 
 | |
| The `uwsgi ini file`_ is enabled by a symbolic link::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   ln -s /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/searx.ini /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/
 | |
| 
 | |
| From debian's documentation (``/usr/share/doc/uwsgi/README.Debian.gz``): You
 | |
| could control specific instance(s) by issuing::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   service uwsgi <command> <confname> <confname> ...
 | |
| 
 | |
|   sudo -H service uwsgi start searx
 | |
|   sudo -H service uwsgi stop  searx
 | |
| 
 | |
| My experience is, that this command is a bit buggy.
 | |
| 
 | |
| .. _uwsgi configuration:
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alltogether
 | |
| ===========
 | |
| 
 | |
| Create the configuration ini-file according to your distribution (see below) and
 | |
| restart the uwsgi application.
