Question

I’m using a Bootle Python Web Framework to develop webapps on Ubuntu.
Is there any effective way to daemonize script that starts default bottlepy webserver?

Thank you.

UPD: Now I’m using Supervisord for this purposes.

Answer 1

As reclosedev mentions, nohup ... & will work without fuss.

You can also use something like daemonize Which has more options than using nohup.

Personally I run the following while developing with autoreload switched on:

while true; do python app.py ; done

which restarts the server if I write something stupid. Other solutions will force you to restart your server for a syntax error.

Deployment happens behind apache or lighttpd.
