[Answered ]-Making a django application running on 127.0.0.1:8000 accessible everywhere?

For accessing the django project else every where you have use the command

python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

then You will be access it outside by giving the IP:8000

Note : the server provided by the Django is only for the development purpose only . If you want a permanent hosting you may like to use Apache or any server , where You can host your project. Hope This helps . 🙂

You need assign a elastic IP address (EIP) on the aws ec2 instance, and allow the inbound traffic 0.0.0.0/0 to port 8000 from its security group.

Then you should be fine to access it from every where with EIP, such as http://54.12.23.34:8000

EIP may generate cost, if you stop the ec2 instance.

You may also want to try the command:

python manage.py runserver [::]:8000

This will bind runserver to all available interfaces on your AWS VM. Please also note: runserver is really just meant for development. Running it in production is a bad idea.

You can use http://localtunnel.me/, it’s very very easy but you should use it only for development purposes.

Just in case, you want to run it on 80 port then you need root permissions

sudo python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:80
