It is possible to run WSGI alongside ASGI here is an example of a Nginx configuration:

server {
    listen 80; 

    server_name {{ server_name }};
    charset utf-8;


    location /static {
        alias {{ static_root }};
    }

    # this is the endpoint of the channels routing
    location /ws/ {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8089; # daphne (ASGI) listening on port 8089
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    }

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8088; # gunicorn (WSGI) listening on port 8088
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_connect_timeout 75s;
        proxy_read_timeout 300s;
        client_max_body_size 50m;
    }
}

To use the /ws/ correctly, you will need to enter your URL like that:

ws://localhost/ws/your_path

Then nginx will be able to upgrade the connection.
