+Channels
+--------
+
+If you want to deploy a project that uses the Django channels with
+`Daphne <http://github.com/django/daphne/>` as the
+`interface server <http://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/deploying.html#run-interface-servers>`
+you have to use a asgi.py script similar to the following:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import os
+    from configurations import importer
+    from channels.asgi import get_channel_layer
+
+    os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "your_project.settings")
+    os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_CONFIGURATION', 'Dev')
+
+    importer.install()
+
+    channel_layer = get_channel_layer()
+
+That will properly load your django-configurations powered settings.
