(Optional dependencies: see `Markup rendering <https://github.com/jonashaag/klaus/wiki/Markup-rendering>`_ in the wiki.)

Usage
-----

See also: `Klaus wiki <https://github.com/jonashaag/klaus/wiki>`_

Using the ``klaus`` script
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
**NOTE:** This is intended for testing/low-traffic local installations *only*!
The `klaus` script uses wsgiref_ internally which doesn't scale *at all*
(in fact it's single-threaded and non-asynchronous).

To run klaus using the default options::

   klaus [repo1 [repo2 ...]]

For more options, see::

   klaus --help


Using a real server
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``klaus`` module contains a ``make_app`` function which returns a WSGI app.

An example WSGI helper script is provided with klaus (see ``klaus/contrib/wsgi.py``),
configuration being read from environment variables. Use it like this (uWSGI example)::

   uwsgi -w klaus.contrib.wsgi \
         --env KLAUS_SITE_NAME="Klaus Demo" \
         --env KLAUS_REPOS="/path/to/repo1 /path/to/repo2 ..." \
         ...

Gunicorn example::

   gunicorn --env KLAUS_SITE_NAME="Klaus Demo" \
            --env KLAUS_REPOS="/path/to/repo1 /path/to/repo2 ..." \
            klaus.contrib.wsgi
