I am trying to troubleshoot my uwsgi app not holding on load. Keep in mind I'm quite new to app development, not to mention uwsgi itself.
I found a lot of examples of useful things to check (e.g. here or here), and uwsgi --help | grep "relevant-option-name" gave me good info on how to get the desired behaviour.
However I couldn't find the default values used by uwsgi for options like --reload-on-rss or --max-requests. Where can I find them ?
Turns out default values are indicated in help when they exist and can be accessed through uwsgi --help | grep 'default' which yields a list with e.g. things like
--worker-reload-mercy set the maximum time (in seconds) a worker can take to reload/shutdown (default is 60)
Configuration arguments not listed by this are simply not used when not specified, hence no default value.
Comments on Recommended settings for uwsgi gave it to me.
