This page details how to create a production setup for the Etebase server.
There exist many ways of doing this, but this guide uses `Daphne` as ASGI and `Nginx` as web server.
There exist many ways of doing this, but this guide uses `uvicorn` as ASGI and `Nginx` as web server.
We do because its not a good idea to just run the basic debug server and expose it to the outside world.
Instead, a component stack should be built.

## Daphne
## Uvicorn
### Installing Daphne
If uvicorn is not yet set up, refer to the [basic setup page](https://github.com/etesync/server/wiki/Basic-Setup-Etebase-(EteSync-v2)), where it is explained.
Installation of Daphne is easily done via pip.
Make sure to install it inside of your virtual environment if you are using one.
```
$ cd path/to/etebase
$ source venv/bin/activate # In case you haven't activated the venv yet.
$ pip3 install daphne
```
### Testing Daphne
We can already test whether our daphne installation works.
```
$ cd path/to/etebase
$ source venv/bin/activate # In case you haven't activated the venv yet.
$ daphne -b 0.0.0.0 -p 8000 etebase_server.asgi:application
```
This command runs the Etebase application and exposes it on port 8000.
On the machine itself, you can now surf to `localhost:8000` to check if it works.
If you're on a different machine than the one running the server, surf to its local IP address followed by the port number, e.g. `192.168.x.x:8000`.
## Nginx
@ -106,14 +84,14 @@ After restarting Nginx and launching Daphne (on port 8001), you should be able t
$ sudo cp etebase_nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/
$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/etebase_nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/etebase_nginx.conf
$ systemctl restart nginx
$ daphne -b 0.0.0.0 -p 8001 etebase_server.asgi:application
$ uvicorn etebase_server.asgi:application --port 8001 --host 0.0.0.0
```
If you encounter any errors, the Nginx log is located in `/var/log/nginx/error.log`.
### Finalize Nginx & Daphne setup
### Finalize Nginx & uvicorn setup
For testing purposes, Daphne exposes the Django application on port 8001.
For testing purposes, uvicorn exposes the Django application on port 8001.
A more elegant solution would be to expose the application using a Unix file socket.
Change `/etc/nginx/sites-available/etebase_nginx.conf` to accept file sockets by commenting in `server unix:///tmp/etebase_server.sock;` and commenting out `server 127.0.0.1:8001;`.
@ -135,14 +113,14 @@ Now, we change the way we run Daphne to use the same file socket.
```
$ systemctl restart nginx
$ daphne -u /tmp/etebase_server.sock etebase_server.asgi:application
$ uvicorn etebase_server.asgi:application --uds /tmp/etebase_server.sock
```
### That's it!
You now have a working Etebase server over HTTP.
Don't forget to change `allowed_hosts` to your domain name in `etebase-server.ini` and to set `server_name` to your domain name in `/etc/nginx/sites-available/etebase_nginx.conf`.
An optional next step is to have your Daphne run automatically at boot. More explanation can be found here: [Run Daphne at boot](https://github.com/etesync/server/wiki/Run-Daphne-at-boot)
An optional next step is to have your uvicorn run automatically at boot. More explanation can be found here: [Run uvicorn at boot](https://github.com/etesync/server/wiki/Run-uvicorn-at-boot)
It is also *highly* recommended **to enable TLS for your Etebase server!**
