Proxying with django and gunicorn

I have a django application that i serve using gunicorn. I do that by using the method prescribed on the gunicorn site - embedding gunicorn into my django application.

I'm trying to set up a proxy into my application so that when you go to "http://mysite.com/proxy/" it does proxy you to "http://mysite.com:8100".

I know i can do that with apache and other webservers. For some reasons i would prefer to do it directly with gunicorn/django. One of theses reasons is keeping everything in the same place.

My question is, what is the best way to do that ? Also is it a terrible idea altogether ?

Thanks.

You should deploy some proxy application into your gunicorn installation, such as WSGIProxy.

I've written dj-revproxy for easy integration of a proxy in django. Bonus point it's using restkit which use the gunicorn HTTP engine. (I'm one of the gunicorn authors). More info here:
