Dynamically add/remove packages from HTTP server

[mikecharles]

It would be nice if it were possible to start the HTTP server, and then when someone creates a new package to somehow "add it" to the HTTP server that's running.

For example, if I have this set up for my org, it'll be run as root. I'm not sure how I'd add a package once the server is running, aside from restarting the server once I've installed the package

Maybe. It depends on how complex this implementation would be. Restarting the server doesn't seem like a horrible workaround to me.

I agree that restarting the server isn't usually a big deal, but I'm working in a really restricted environment where it would take an IT support ticket to restart the server each time, and they would begin to question us if we were restarting it often.
