Flask + mod_wsgi automatic reload on source code change

Question

Does anyone know how to make a mod_wsgi automatically reload a Flask app when any of the modules changes? I\'ve tried WSGIScriptReloading On, but n

Answer 1

The correct answer to this question is that the WSGIScriptReloading On needs to be added into 000-default.conf present under /etc/apache2/sites-enabled folder.

See below example

        # The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
        # the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
        # redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
        # specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
        # match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
        # value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
        # However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
        #ServerName www.example.com

        ServerName sentiments.live
        ServerAdmin admin@sentiments.live
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html
        WSGIDaemonProcess flaskapp threads=5
        WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/html/sentiments/flaskapp.wsgi

        
                WSGIScriptReloading On
                WSGIProcessGroup sentiments
                WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
                Order deny,allow
                Allow from all
