Django-OpenAI-Chatbot

This project is a Django-based application that integrates with OpenAI to provide a chatbot service. It uses Gunicorn as the WSGI HTTP Server to serve the Django application with NGINX as a reverse proxy for handling static files. To enable HTTPS support, add SSL configuration to your NGINX settings. This involves obtaining SSL certificates and adding ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key directives to your NGINX server block. For detailed instructions, refer to the NGINX documentation on SSL/TLS configuration.

The repository has basic Dockerfile for your Django application and a basic NGINX configuration in the ./nginx directory. You might need to adjust paths and settings according to your project's specific setup.
