Release candidate for 2.0 including this feature is already available. Everything was okay for release but then decided to tweak/enhance some other features, including now finally adding means of specifying script to run when process first starts so that one can preload stuff. > > Thus, change your config file, whether it be actual Python code or an > > ini file and touch the main WSGI script file for that application. > > Upon the next request against that application it will detect WSGI > > script file has changed and will do the restart. > > Will that restart all processes/sub processes/threads? Where a daemon process contains multiple processes, it will result in all the processes being restarted eventually. Because the restart only happens when next request comes in, they all effectively get restarted in a cascade. This is because request hits first sub process and realises it will need to restart. Then try again and will likely hit next process in group which indicates it needs to restart as well and so on until hit process that has finished its restart. This is all transparent to user except for the slight delay due to restart of application.
