| 3 | 3 | I've got a PR in that ticket (https://github.com/django/django/pull/8819) to refactor the autoreloader and add support for the Watchdog library (and watchman) over pyinotify, which handles the intricacies of Windows, Linux and Mac file system notifications. IMO, after reading the Watchdog code and seeing the rather tricky corner cases it handles (e.g [[https://github.com/gorakhargosh/watchdog/blob/f1d32fd0e02cfbc727ae2b15f6eb9937959c3541/src/watchdog/observers/read_directory_changes.py#L85-L104|this]]) it would be best to outsource it there than maintain our own. |
