Description
Within the watch_dir
method in django.utils.autoreload.BaseReloader
, the path is checked by calling on the absolute
method on the Path
object:
def watch_dir(self, path, glob): path = Path(path) try: path = path.absolute() except FileNotFoundError: logger.debug( "Unable to watch directory %s as it cannot be resolved.", path, exc_info=True, ) return logger.debug("Watching dir %s with glob %s.", path, glob) self.directory_globs[path].add(glob)
Except absolute
doesn't raise, it just returns the absolute path. Should be changed to an if check on path.exists()
