### Deployment on Namecheap Shared Hosting

Deploying a Django project on Namecheap shared hosting requires some additional steps due to the limitations of shared hosting environments. Here’s how to do it:



####  Set Up Python on Namecheap

- Log In to cPanel: Access your Namecheap account and log in to your cPanel.

- Select Setup Python App: In the Software section, select Setup Python App.

- Create a New Application:

    - Choose your Python version (e.g., Python 3.x).

    - Set the application root directory (e.g., /home/username/toraaglobal).

    - Set the application URL (e.g., www.toraaglobal.com).

    - Set the application startup file (usually passenger_wsgi.py).



#### Prepare Your Django Project

- Create passenger_wsgi.py:

In the root directory of your Django project, create a passenger_wsgi.py file with the following content:

```

import sys

import os



# Add your project directory to the sys.path

sys.path.insert(0, '/home/username/toraaglobal')



# Set the settings module

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'toraaglobal.settings'



from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

application = get_wsgi_application()

```



- Install Dependencies:



 - In cPanel’s Python App settings, navigate to your app and open the terminal.



 - Install your dependencies using pip:

    ```

    pip install -r /home/username/toraaglobal/requirements.txt



    ```



- Configure Database:

    - Namecheap shared hosting typically uses MySQL, so update your DATABASES setting in settings.py to use MySQL:

    ```

    DATABASES = {

        'default': {

            'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',

            'NAME': 'database_name',

            'USER': 'database_user',

            'PASSWORD': 'database_password',

            'HOST': 'localhost',

            'PORT': '3306',

        }

    }

    ```



- Migrate the Database:

Run the migrations to set up the database:



```

python manage.py migrate



```



- Configure Static Files

    - Collect Static Files:Run the command to collect static files:

        ```

        python manage.py collectstatic



        ```

    - Serve Static Files: You may need to configure your .htaccess file to serve static files correctly. Add the following in your .htaccess file located in the public_html directory:

        ```

        Alias /static/ /home/username/toraaglobal/static/



        

            Require all granted

        

        ```



-  Final Steps

    - Update ALLOWED_HOSTS: In your settings.py, ensure that ALLOWED_HOSTS includes your domain name:

        ```

        ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['www.toraaglobal.com']



        ```

    - Restart Your Application:

    In cPanel, go to the Python App settings and restart your application to apply all changes.

Once completed, your Django project should be live and running on Namecheap shared hosting.
