This guide will show you how to run PowerDNS-Admin via uWSGI and nginx. This guide was written using Debian 8 with the following software versions:

• nginx 1.6.2
• uwsgi 2.0.7-debian
• python 2.7.9

sudo apt-get install uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python nginx

Step-by-step instructions

1. Create a uWSGI .ini in /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled with the following contents, making sure to replace the chdir, pythonpath and virtualenv directories with where you've installed PowerDNS-Admin:

[uwsgi]
plugins = python27

uid=www-data
gid=www-data

chdir = /opt/pdns-admin/PowerDNS-Admin/
pythonpath = /opt/pdns-admin/PowerDNS-Admin/
virtualenv = /opt/pdns-admin/PowerDNS-Admin/flask 

mount = /pdns=powerdnsadmin:create_app()
manage-script-name = true

vacuum = true
harakiri = 20
buffer-size = 32768
post-buffering = 8192
socket = /run/uwsgi/app/%n/%n.socket
chown-socket = www-data
pidfile = /run/uwsgi/app/%n/%n.pid 

daemonize = /var/log/uwsgi/app/%n.log
enable-threads

2. Add the following configuration to your nginx config:

location / { try_files $uri @pdns_admin; } 

location @pdns_admin {
    include uwsgi_params;
    uwsgi_pass unix:/run/uwsgi/app/pdns-admin/pdns-admin.socket;
}

location /pdns/static/ {
    alias /opt/pdns-admin/PowerDNS-Admin/app/static/;
}

3. Restart nginx and uwsgi.
4. You're done and PowerDNS-Admin will now be available via nginx.
