Running Django in UvicornLink to this heading#

When Uvicorn is installed, a uvicorn command is available which runs ASGI applications. 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).

For a typical Django project, invoking Uvicorn would look like:

python -m uvicorn myproject.asgi:application

This will start one process listening on 127.0.0.1:8000. It requires that your project be on the Python path; to ensure that run this command from the same directory as your manage.py file.

In development mode, you can add --reload to cause the server to reload any time a file is changed on disk.

For more advanced usage, please read the Uvicorn documentation.
