Simplifying Offline Python Deployments With Docker

 By realpython - 2020-12-03

Description

How to package up a Python project for distribution internally on a machine cut off from the Internet using Docker.

Summary

  • In cases when a production server does not have access to the Internet or to the internal network, you will need to bundle up the Python dependencies (as wheel files) and interpreter along with the source code.
  • Plus, if you uncover issues with the new deploy you can easily rollback.
  • Think about how you could automate this process given a configuration file.
