Django restart server or httpd

In django framework,When there are changes in urls.py or model.py or views.py .We would restart httpd.

But as the documentation says we could restart runserver to get the latest changes.

Which is the best efficient way for doing the above

For the development server, I added this very convenient function. Obviously, you should never leave this in prod.

from _thread import interrupt_main
def shutdown(_):
    # Clean up and then...
    interrupt_main()
    return redirect("/")

_thread.interrupt_main() simulates a KeyboardInterrupt (SIGINT).

touch your_project_name.wsgi and save without any change. It will change data modify and django will automatically reloading code.

runserver.py restarts automatically every time you modify any .py file, but when you are using apache you have to restart the proccess manually.

runserver refers to the development server that is distributed with Django. Restarting this one or your httpd are the same thing, in both cases you restart the webserver. If you're using apache, you are not using the development server that is startet by runserver.py.
