I am running my django based website in my local using apache mod_wsgi. Every-time I make a change to the python code, I need to restart my apache gracefully for the changes to take effect. Is there a way to configure apache in my local machine so that it takes up the new change without restart/graceful?
This is my current VirtualHost & Apache configuration:
<VirtualHost *:9001>
DocumentRoot /public/gdp/trunk/
ErrorLog /home/root/apache/error_log
CustomLog /home/root/apache/access_log combined
WSGIDaemonProcess root.com processes=5 threads=15
WSGIProcessGroup root.com
WSGIScriptAlias / /etc/httpd/conf/test.wsgi
<Directory /etc/httpd/conf/>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<IfModule prefork.c>
StartServers 5
MinSpareServers 1
MaxSpareServers 5
ServerLimit 5
MaxClients 5
MaxRequestsPerChild 1
</IfModule>

Your test.wsgi
can be a tiny script that handles automatically reloading other modules which you can then change on the fly. You'd have to restart apache to see changes to test.wsgi
though.
