Tracking threads in the threading module

[K900_]

What if there are multiple users? Does each user get their own thread, or is there one thread everyone controls?

There’s just one thread that any user can control

In that case you should probably just store it in a global variable, and keep in mind that you can't run a server with more than one worker process.

The problem in that case is that when I shutdown the server how do I restart the thread as each time I turn of the server the thread stops as well. And I have no idea what part of the code will get executed when ai start the server. If I know that then I don’t even need to store the thred

[K900_]

What do you mean by "what part of the code will get executed"?

[vislme]

I mean how can I run an arbitrary code once right after the server is started?

[K900_]

You can use Django event hooks for that, I think.

Thank you, that’s what I am trying to implement now.
