This is most probably FAQ, but I swear I couldn't find it - please have mercy on a nevow/twisted newbie :)

Here's the FAQ: http://divmod.org/users/wiki.twistd/nevow/moin.cgi/FrequentlyAskedQuestions And here's the start of a cookbook: http://divmod.org/users/wiki.twistd/nevow/moin.cgi/CookBook Dave Cook

I've also found this cookbook recipe for updating instances after reloading a module to be handy: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/160164

This is the sort of thing I wrote it for! In practice, I'm finding a few issues (mostly to do with upgrading state of instances).

At the moment, I'm just going in via a manhole and manually reloading modules when I change them in development. I'm sure this can be automated, though.

Hmm, manhole. I should probably try that.

This route has the advantage that you don't have to restructure your code into non-objects in the way that the cookbook suggests.

I don't understand this comment, though? Cheers, mwh -- One of the great skills in using any language is knowing what not to use, what not to say. ... There's that simplicity thing again. -- Ron Jeffries

Err... Sorry... The word "cookbook" was overloaded in this context. Cookbook above was referring to http://divmod.org/users/wiki.twistd/nevow/moin.cgi/CookBook

In there, there is a suggestion to move all of your stan rendering into functions so you can just reload the module.

Ah! Yes, that make sense now :) Glad you like my recipe (I hear that it's in the newly released Python Cookbook 2e, but haven't seen it myself yet). Cheers, mwh -- <exarkun> today's lesson <exarkun> don't strace X in an xterm -- from Twisted.Quotes
