django-admin server start/stop

Is there a plugin that allows me to start and stop django server from command line?

Suppose I have multiple sites running at the same time, so going `ps aux` to manually inspect which site to kill is a time stealer. I expect that `manage.py server stop` stop all servers that were run for the current development project.

    manage.py server stop    -- stop dev server(s) run for current project

Also, `server start` should store pid somewhere, so that it could be checked and killed. What is the best place to store that?

    manage.py server start    -- start django server for current project in foreground

    options:
      -b, --background     -- run server in background
      --autoport              -- select port automatically
      --dump                  -- dump server parameters (port, pid, etc) in JSON format (disables other stdout output)


$ manage server start --dump
{
  'addr: 127.0.0.1,
  'port': 8080,
  'pid': 13224,
  'pidfile': '/tmp/django-project1`
}


Automatic port selection is needed if you want to preview another branch with a temporary copy of current project. Maybe there is a plugin for branch testing/preview too that can help me?

Thanks.
