Answer 1

Since bottle doesn't provide a mechanism, it requires a hack. This is perhaps the cleanest one if you are using the default WSGI server:

In bottle's code the WSGI server is started with:

srv.serve_forever()

If you have started bottle in its own thread, you can stop it using:

srv.shutdown()

To access the srv variable in your code, you need to edit the bottle source code and make it global. After changing the bottle code, it would look like:

srv = None #make srv global
class WSGIRefServer(ServerAdapter):
    def run(self, handler): # pragma: no cover
        global srv #make srv global
        ...
