Django channels API

Running Django in Uvicorn Uvicorn needs to be called with the location of a module containing an ASGI application object, followed by what the application is called (separated by a colon) . This will start one process listening on 127.0. 0.1:8000 .

Nevertheless, as of now, Uvicorn’s capabilities for handling worker processes are more limited than Gunicorn’s. So, if you want to have a process manager at this level (at the Python level), then it might be better to try with Gunicorn as the process manager .

Gunicorn is a mature, fully featured server and process manager. Uvicorn includes a Gunicorn worker class allowing you to run ASGI applications, with all of Uvicorn’s performance benefits, while also giving you Gunicorn’s fully-featured process management.
