How to I reload global vars on every page refresh in DJango
Simple: Don't use global objects.
If you want an object inside the view, instantiate it inside the view, not as global. That way it will be collected after the view ends.
Here is my problem.  DJango continues to store all the global objects after the first run of a script.  For instance, an object you instantiate in views.py globally will be there until you restart the app server.  This is fine unless your object is tied to some outside resource that may time out.  Now the way I was thinking to correct was some sort of factory method that checks if the object is instantiated and creates it if it's not, and then returns it.  However, the this fails because the object exists there since the last page request, so a factory method is always returning the object that was instantiated during the first request.
What I am looking for is a way to trigger something to happen on a per request basis.  I have seen ways of doing this by implementing your own middleware, but I think that is overkill.  Does anyone know of some reserved methods or some other per request trigger.
