Daphne is a HTTP, HTTP2 and WebSocket protocol server for
`ASGI <http://channels.readthedocs.org/en/latest/asgi.html>`_, and developed
to power Django Channels.
It supports automatic negotiation of protocols; there's no need for URL
prefixing to determine WebSocket endpoints versus HTTP endpoints.
Running
-------
Simply point Daphne to your ASGI channel layer instance, and optionally
set a bind address and port (defaults to localhost, port 8000)::
daphne -b 0.0.0.0 -p 8001 django_project.asgi.channel_layer
