Upstart configuration for uWSGI serving a Django project to a socket. I’m using this with Nginx on Ubuntu 11.10 in production for a smallish RESTful API.

example.conf

#!upstart
description "uWSGI server for example.com"

start on startup
stop on shutdown

script
	exec sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/uwsgi --plugins http,python \
		--chmod-socket --socket /tmp/example.sock \
		--wsgi-file /srv/www/example.com/example/config.wsgi \
		--callable app \
		--processes 10 \
		--harakiri 15 \
		--logto /srv/www/example.com/logs/uwsgi.log
end script

post-stop script
    rm /tmp/example.sock
end script
