# Deploying
Deploying Sanic is made simple by the inbuilt webserver. After defining an
instance of `sanic.Sanic`, we can call the `run` method with the following
keyword arguments:
- `host` *(default `"127.0.0.1"`)*: Address to host the server on.
- `port` *(default `8000`)*: Port to host the server on.
- `debug` *(default `False`)*: Enables debug output (slows server).
- `ssl` *(default `None`)*: `SSLContext` for SSL encryption of worker(s).
- `sock` *(default `None`)*: Socket for the server to accept connections from.
- `workers` *(default `1`)*: Number of worker processes to spawn.
- `loop` *(default `None`)*: An `asyncio`-compatible event loop. If none is
specified, Sanic creates its own event loop.
- `protocol` *(default `HttpProtocol`)*: Subclass
of
[asyncio.protocol](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-protocol.html#protocol-classes).
- `access_log` *(default `True`)*: Enables log on handling requests (significantly slows server).
## Workers
By default, Sanic listens in the main process using only one CPU core. To crank
up the juice, just specify the number of workers in the `run` arguments.
```python
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=1337, workers=4)
```
Sanic will automatically spin up multiple processes and route traffic between
them. We recommend as many workers as you have available cores.
## Running via command
If you like using command line arguments, you can launch a Sanic server by
executing the module. For example, if you initialized Sanic as `app` in a file
named `server.py`, you could run the server like so:
`python -m sanic server.app --host=0.0.0.0 --port=1337 --workers=4`
With this way of running sanic, it is not necessary to invoke `app.run` in your
Python file. If you do, make sure you wrap it so that it only executes when
directly run by the interpreter.
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=1337, workers=4)
```
## Running via Gunicorn
[Gunicorn](http://gunicorn.org/) Green Unicorn is a WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX.
Its a pre-fork worker model ported from Rubys Unicorn project.
In order to run Sanic application with Gunicorn, you need to use the special `sanic.worker.GunicornWorker`
for Gunicorn `worker-class` argument:
```
gunicorn myapp:app --bind 0.0.0.0:1337 --worker-class sanic.worker.GunicornWorker
```
If your application suffers from memory leaks, you can configure Gunicorn to gracefully restart a worker
after it has processed a given number of requests. This can be a convenient way to help limit the effects
of the memory leak.
See the [Gunicorn Docs](http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/latest/settings.html#max-requests) for more information.
## Running behind a reverse proxy
Sanic can be used with a reverse proxy (e.g. nginx). There's a simple example of nginx configuration:
```
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.org;
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
```
If you want to get real client ip, you should configure `X-Real-IP` and `X-Forwarded-For` HTTP headers and set `app.config.PROXIES_COUNT` to `1`; see the configuration page for more information.
## Disable debug logging
To improve the performance add `debug=False` and `access_log=False` in the `run` arguments.
```python
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=1337, workers=4, debug=False, access_log=False)
```
Running via Gunicorn you can set Environment variable `SANIC_ACCESS_LOG="False"`
```
env SANIC_ACCESS_LOG="False" gunicorn myapp:app --bind 0.0.0.0:1337 --worker-class sanic.worker.GunicornWorker --log-level warning
```
Or you can rewrite app config directly
```python
app.config.ACCESS_LOG = False
```
## Asynchronous support
This is suitable if you *need* to share the sanic process with other applications, in particular the `loop`.
However be advised that this method does not support using multiple processes, and is not the preferred way
to run the app in general.
Here is an incomplete example (please see `run_async.py` in examples for something more practical):
```python
server = app.create_server(host="0.0.0.0", port=8000, return_asyncio_server=True)
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
task = asyncio.ensure_future(server)
loop.run_forever()
```
