How do I start the pylons web application programmatically?

Question

Normally, we start a pylons web application via command line:

pastser serve --reload development.ini

I wanna know can we start it programmaticly? In a python script file?

I want this because I can start it in IDE, and use the debugger

Answer 1

That sounds like a job for a shell script - you could launch it from a Python script, but a shell script is likely to be cheaper in terms of mental effort.
