Find out what port Django instance is running on?

Question

Is there any way to find out what port a Django instance is listening on from within the code?

Answer 1

You can get the info through the HttpRequest. Checkout the Django Docs here.

This can be accessed through the META attribute which is a dictionary containing the HTTP header info.

Example:

def someView(request):
    #Try printing to screen
    print request.META['SERVER_PORT']
    ...
    return(response)

Answer 2

maybe request.META['SERVER_PORT']

or are you not in a view?
