Examples

Remember, in order to make the following examples work, you have to enable mod_proxy and mod_proxy_uwsgi.

Simple gateway

ProxyPass "/uwsgi-bin/" "uwsgi://localhost:4000/"

The balanced gateway needs mod_proxy_balancer and at least one load balancer algorithm module, such as mod_lbmethod_byrequests, in addition to the proxy modules listed above. mod_lbmethod_byrequests is the default, and will be used for this example configuration.

Balanced gateway

ProxyPass "/uwsgi-bin/" "balancer://somecluster/"
<Proxy balancer://somecluster>
    BalancerMember uwsgi://localhost:4000
    BalancerMember uwsgi://localhost:4001
</Proxy>
