How to automatically reload a python file when it is changed

Hi guys, If I make some changes to one of the files belonging to a running app, is there a way to tell the python runtime to automatically reload the module/file?

Cheers Naren

• Here is a very old module that I posted nearly ten years ago. I may no longer work with current Python versions (I have not checked) but it may give some ideas.

  Van Gale : +1 for the code you wrote being in the accepted answer :)

  Van Gale : ...and the highest voted answer since the Django module started with CherryPy.

  theller : Hey, I didn't even know that.

• Take look at Django's autoreload module. It works very well.

• Take at look at CherryPy's Autoreload feature. I think it looks quite simple and always worked well for me.
