Honcho is a Python port of Foreman, a tool for managing Procfile-based applications.

Why a port?

pip install honcho 

If you're one of those sick people who's into this kind of thing, you can probably also easy_install honcho. But please, don't: get with the program.

The 30-second version:

1. Write a Procfile:

   $ cat >Procfile <<EOM web: python serve.py redis: redis-server EOM 

2. Optional: write a .env file to configure your app:

   $ cat >.env <<EOM PORT=6000 REDIS_URI=redis://localhost:6789/0 EOM 

3. Run the app with Honcho:

   $ honcho start
