First you need a tool that can be run to create the relevant
configurations. That tool should support a variety of different web
servers, not just nginx.
In general, there isn't any way to know how the sysadmin wants to
setup web apps so you need to ask them if they want to set up the app
automatically, how many sites they want and for each one, prompt them
for what URL to expose the app at, which web server to use, which
application server to use, which databases to use, which filesystem
locations to put files and so on. Then run the tool from postinst to
generate the web server configurations.
Which django app are you packaging?
