The command waitress-serve --call ${import-path-wsgi_factory} is used to start the Waitress server and serve a web application.
Here is an explanation of each component:
waitress-serve: This is the command that starts the Waitress server. Waitress is a pure-Python HTTP server for WSGI (Web Server Gateway Interface) applications.--call: This flag tells Waitress to use a callable object as the WSGI application.${import-path-wsgi_factory}: This is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual import path to the WSGI factory function or the WSGI application object. This is the entry point of the web application that Waitress will serve.
By running this command with the correct import path, Waitress will start the server, and incoming HTTP requests will be handled by the specified WSGI application or factory function.
