Description
We have a usecase where our web application is
(a) running on Django using local users (which is standard),
(b) is then modified by our UI to take in an LDAP configuration to support directory services remote users
LDAP setup is managed by the django-auth-ldap module, but it's configuration ends up in settings.py. How can we get Django to automatically pick up these changes without restarting?
Or, is there another way to support such a usecase. In more general terms, how can Django be told to reload it's configuration?
Please don't use Trac as a support channel. Closing per TicketClosingReasons/UseSupportChannels.
