gunicorn-env-cfg

Configure gunicorn from GUNICORN_* environment variables.

Usage

Load the module as your gunicorn config:

gunicorn -c python:gunicorn_env_cfg app:app

or

GUNICORN_CMD_ARGS="-c python:gunicorn_env_cfg" gunicorn

Each GUNICORN_<NAME> environment variable sets the config option <name> (lowercased). For example:

export GUNICORN_WORKERS=4
export GUNICORN_BIND=0.0.0.0:8000
export GUNICORN_WSGI_APP=app:app
export GUNICORN_CMD_ARGS="-c python:gunicorn_env_cfg"
gunicorn

See the gunicorn settings for the full list of available options.

Behaviour

• GUNICORN_CMD_ARGS is left untouched for gunicorn's own handling.
• Variables without the GUNICORN_ prefix are ignored.
• An unknown option raises a ValueError at startup, so typos fail fast rather than being silently ignored.
