shell - Django runserver permanent

Question

How can I make the development server from django running permanent? So that it does't stop when I quit the shell.

Thanks

Answer 1

another easy way to do this is to run:

[user@host]$screen
[user@host]$python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

Now press Ctrl+A and then press d to exit from this screen.

This creates the server in a screen and then detaches it. This way you can simply go back in and type:

[user@host]$screen -r

and you can take control of the server again and see whats going on.

You can also detach from the screen immediately:

screen -d -m python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
