duck.backend.django.bridge

This module acts as a bridge between a Django server and a Duck server. It allows Django to handle requests that are originally meant for the Duck server.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Client sends a request: The client initiates a request to the Duck server.

  2. Duck server receives request: The Duck server receives the request first.

  3. Request forwarded to Django: The Duck server forwards the request to the Django server on the same network.

  4. Django processes request: Django handles the request as if the route was defined within Duck urls.py or in Django itself.

  5. Response sent to client: The response generated by Django is sent back to the client.
