• Set up

$ bench setup procfile

• Production setup

$ bench setup nginx

$ bench setup supervisor

• Supervisord will manage redis-server
• chek $ /etc/redis/redis.conf and configure the redis as your need

• I preferred to use aptitude command in ubuntu rather than apt-get since aptitude is always on pretend option.
• Retstarting nginx, mysql, supervisor etc is on linux distro kanowledge base ( depending on your distro using openrc or systemd init
