Thanks; I wanted my object to be created on application startup;

I know that I can put objects in my model and they are available; but I wanted something like application scope that has a life longer than the request;

What I am trying to accomplish is an event queue type system.

so when the application starts and event queue starts and as I process requests; I can add events to the queue and they can run in the back ground;

I thought if I started my app in models like

queue = EventQueue()

queue.start()

seems like once the request lifecycle completes the queue is no longer running as I am guessing it would probably hold up the request from finishing;

so I am looking for an alternative place to start the queue say when the application starts and store that somewhere globally.

Thanks.

All the model files in the root /models folder are run on every request to the application, so any object defined in one of those files will be available application wide. Is that what you're looking for? Note, as of version 1.96.1, there are also conditional model files that execute only when a particular controller and/or function is requested. For example, model files in the /models/controller1 folder will only execute when the incoming request is for 'controller1', and model files in the /models/controller1/func1 folder will only execute when the incoming request is for 'controller1/func1'.

    Like application scope?

    Thanks.
