deploying Gunicorn in production see :doc:`deploy`.

Commonly Used Arguments
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* ``-c CONFIG, --config=CONFIG`` - Specify the path to a config file or
Python module.
* ``-b BIND, --bind=BIND`` - Specify a server socket to bind. Server sockets
can be any of ``$(HOST)``, ``$(HOST):$(PORT)``, or ``unix:$(PATH)``.
An IP is a valid ``$(HOST)``.
* ``-w WORKERS, --workers=WORKERS`` - The number of worker processes. This
number should generally be between 2-4 workers per core in the server.
Check the :ref:`faq` for ideas on tuning this parameter.
* ``-k WORKERCLASS, --worker-class=WORKERCLASS`` - The type of worker process
to run. You'll definitely want to read the production page for the
implications of this parameter. You can set this to ``egg:gunicorn#$(NAME)``
where ``$(NAME)`` is one of ``sync``, ``eventlet``, ``gevent``, or
``tornado``, ``gthread``, ``gaiohttp``. ``sync`` is the default.
* ``-n APP_NAME, --name=APP_NAME`` - If setproctitle_ is installed you can
adjust the name of Gunicorn process as they appear in the process system
table (which affects tools like ``ps`` and ``top``).
See :ref:`configuration` and :ref:`settings` for detailed usage.
