Restart actually restarts the server
------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-709
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-709
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Database Core
Reporter: Chris Anderson
This patch will cause CouchDB to actually restart the server when a POST is
made to /_restart
The old way was unreliable as supervisors would shut things down
asynchronously. This new way is much more brute force, which makes it more
deterministic.
This only really effects the test suite. I'm only pushing the patch through
Jira to see if people see room for improvements.
One improvement would be to add a timestamp for server boot time to the /
response, but I seem to have avoided the need for that with my double GET magic.
Do note: restart now drops any temporary config, hence the change to the
reader_acls test.
