How do I deploy a Python project to a webserver that supports Python via CGI? I’m well versed in PHP, but do not understand CGI’s relation to Python in the deployment process.
Any resource links are appreciated.
The web host in question is GoDaddy.
Generally, we use mod_wsgi to make a Python application respond to CGI.
PHP has a special role — the language runtime IS a CGI application.
Python does not have this special role. Python — by default — is not a CGI application. It requires a piece of glue to play well with Apache. mod_wsgi is this glue.
