This command is used to start a Gunicorn server with SSL/TLS encryption enabled. Here's an explanation of each part:
gunicorn
: This is the command to start the Gunicorn server, which is a Python HTTP server.--certfile ${cert-pem}
: This option specifies the location of the SSL/TLS certificate file (cert.pem
). The${cert-pem}
is a placeholder for the actual path to the certificate file.--keyfile ${key-pem}
: This option specifies the location of the private key file (key.pem
) corresponding to the SSL/TLS certificate. The${key-pem}
is a placeholder for the actual path to the key file.${import-path:app_object}
: This is the entry point to your application module. The${import-path}
is a placeholder for the path to the Python module that contains your application code, andapp_object
refers to the specific object or variable within that module that represents your application.
When you run this command, Gunicorn will start a server with SSL/TLS encryption using the specified certificate and key files. It will then load the given Python module and locate the specified application object to handle incoming HTTP requests.
