Commands

generate-config

# Interactive mode (recommended for first setup)
python manage.py generate-config --interactive

# Command line mode
python manage.py generate-config \
    --coolify-url https://coolify.example.com \
    --api-token your-api-token \

• --force: Overwrite existing configuration
• --interactive: Interactive configuration mode

setup-infra

Create project and application in Coolify based on your configuration.

# Basic setup
python manage.py setup-infra

# List available servers
python manage.py setup-infra --list-servers

# Use specific server
python manage.py setup-infra --server-uuid <server-uuid>

# Force recreation of resources
python manage.py setup-infra --force

Options:

• --server-uuid: Specific server UUID to deploy to
• --force: Force recreation of existing resources
• --list-servers: List available servers and exit

deploy

Deploy your application to Coolify.

# Standard deployment
python manage.py deploy

# Force rebuild (no cache)
python manage.py deploy --force

# Deploy specific branch
python manage.py deploy --branch feature-branch

# Deploy specific tag
python manage.py deploy --tag v1.0.0

# Skip git push (code already pushed)
python manage.py deploy --no-push

Options:

• --force: Force rebuild without cache
• --no-push: Skip git push (assume code is already pushed)
• --branch: Deploy specific branch (overrides config)
• --tag: Deploy specific tag instead of branch

Configuration

The coolify.json file contains all the configuration for your deployment:

{
  "coolify_url": "https://coolify.example.com",
  "api_token": "your-api-token",
  "project_name": "my-django-project",
  "project_uuid": "generated-after-setup",
  "app_name": "my-django-app",
  "app_uuid": "generated-after-setup",
  "server_uuid": "auto-selected-or-specified",
  "git_repository": "https://github.com/username/repo",
  "git_branch": "main",
  "build_pack": "dockerfile",
  "domains": "example.com,www.example.com",
  "environment_variables": {},
  "health_check_enabled": true,
  "health_check_path": "/health/"
}

Docker Configuration

The package automatically generates Docker-related files if they don't exist:

• Dockerfile: Optimized for Django applications
• requirements.txt: Extracted from pyproject.toml or created with sensible defaults
• .dockerignore: Excludes unnecessary files from Docker context

Health Checks

A health check endpoint is automatically added to your Django application at /health/. This endpoint returns a simple JSON response indicating the application status.

Environment Variables

You can configure environment variables in the coolify.json file:

{
  "environment_variables": {
    "DEBUG": "False",
    "ALLOWED_HOSTS": "example.com,www.example.com",
    "SECRET_KEY": "your-secret-key"
  }
}

Getting Your Coolify API Token

1. Log in to your Coolify dashboard
2. Go to "Keys & Tokens" → "API tokens"
3. Click "Create New Token"
4. Give it a name and select appropriate permissions
5. Copy the token (you'll only see it once)

Workflow

The typical workflow for using django-coolify:

1. Initial Setup: Run generate-config --interactive to create your configuration
2. Infrastructure: Run setup-infra to create the project and application in Coolify
3. Development: Make changes to your Django application
4. Deployment: Run deploy to push changes and deploy

Requirements

• Python 3.12+
• Django 4.2+
• Git repository (public repositories supported)
• Coolify instance with API access

Limitations

• Currently supports only public Git repositories
• Requires manual Coolify API token setup
• SQLite database with volume mounting (PostgreSQL support planned)
