Flask auto-detect changes to routes [in-production]

Question

Does flask auto-detect changes to routes?

For example, if i have a route like:

@app.route('/')
def home():
    return "Show homepage"

If this is properly working, will a new route like automatically be accessible at <my-server-ip>/blog when i add this route below ?

 @app.route('/')
    def myblog():
        return "Show myblog"

Full file:

    @app.route('/')
    def home():
        return "Show homepage"
    @app.route('/')
    def myblog():
        return "Show myblog"
    if __name__ == '__main__':
        app.run()

Note: home() is already accessible

Is this auto-detected? or do I need to reload a config or something? if so, how? Im using gunicorn/nginx — CodeTalk, Jan 26 '16 at 14:12
if you work in debug mode then server should reload files automatically. see: http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/0.10/quickstart/#debug-mode — furas, Jan 26 '16 at 14:15
I should have mentioned, and i will add to the question, this is a prod env — CodeTalk, Jan 26 '16 at 14:15
in prod dev you have to restart gunicorn - kill it and run again. — furas, Jan 26 '16 at 14:16

This is great, thank you. Additionally, wanted to add, if you're using supervisor to control your application, just simply run: sudo supervisorctl restart – CodeTalk Jan 26 '16 at 14:24
