How do I configure SSL certificates in Django?

To configure SSL certificates in Django, you need to set up your web server to use HTTPS. Are you using Apache or Nginx?

I'm using Nginx. What steps should I follow?

First, obtain an SSL certificate from a trusted provider. Then, update your Nginx configuration to include the certificate paths and redirect HTTP to HTTPS.

Can you provide an example of the Nginx configuration?

Sure! Here’s a basic example:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name yourdomain.com;
    return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}

server {
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name yourdomain.com;

    ssl_certificate /path/to/your/certificate.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /path/to/your/private.key;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
    }
}

Make sure to replace the paths with your actual certificate files.
