TaskFlow - Render Deployment Guide

Prerequisites

✅ TiDB Cloud database configured ✅ Repository cleaned and ready for GitHub ✅ Production settings configured

Step 1: Push to GitHub

git add .
git commit -m "Prepare for Render deployment with TiDB"
git push origin main

Step 2: Render Setup

  1. Go to Render.com
  2. Connect your GitHub account
  3. Create New Web Service
  4. Connect your repository

Step 3: Configure Web Service

Basic Settings:

  • Name: taskflow-django (or your preferred name)
  • Environment: Python 3
  • Region: Choose closest to your location
  • Branch: main

Build & Deploy Settings:

  • Build Command: ./build.sh
  • Start Command: gunicorn taskmanager.wsgi:application --bind 0.0.0.0:$PORT --settings=taskmanager.settings_production

Environment Variables:

Add these in Render's Environment section:

DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=your-secret-key-here
DB_NAME=your-tidb-database-name
DB_USER=your-tidb-username
DB_PASSWORD=your-tidb-password
DB_HOST=gateway01.ap-southeast-1.prod.aws.tidbcloud.com
DB_PORT=4000
DB_SSL_CA=./certs/ca-cert.pem
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=taskmanager.settings_production

Step 4: SSL Certificate

The TiDB SSL certificate (isrgrootx1.pem) is already included in your repository in the certs/ folder.

Step 5: Deploy

  1. Click "Create Web Service"
  2. Wait for deployment (5-10 minutes)
  3. Your app will be available at: https://your-app-name.onrender.com

Step 6: Post-Deployment

  1. Create superuser (if needed):

    python manage.py createsuperuser --settings=taskmanager.settings_production

  2. Update ALLOWED_HOSTS in settings_production.py with your actual Render domain

Important Notes:

  • ✅ TiDB connection configured for production
  • ✅ Static files handling with WhiteNoise
  • ✅ Security settings enabled
  • ✅ SSL/HTTPS enforced
  • ✅ Media files configured

Troubleshooting:

  • Check Render logs if deployment fails
  • Ensure all environment variables are set correctly
  • Verify TiDB connection details

Your TaskFlow app will be live and accessible worldwide! 🚀
