How to make uWSGI restart when a Python script is modified

djangouwsgi

Can't remember where, but I read uWSGI can reload itself like Django development server when a project script is modified. I can't find that in the docs, nor in the internets. How can I do this?

I use Ubuntu 12.04 on my working machines and Debian Squeeze on stage & production server, Django 1.4 and uWSGI 1.2.

If you have started uwsgi with the --touch-reload=/path/to/special/file/usually/the.ini option, reloading your uWSGI is a simple matter of touch reloading that file with

touch /path/to/special/file/usually/the.ini

And if you want the "autoreload" capability, this is the tip that gets this done: http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/wiki/TipsAndTricks#uWSGIdjangoautoreloadmode
