How to fetch restart type for running application

Hello, :wave:

How can I get the restart_type for an already running application?

I know that you can use :application.ensure_all_started/2 with restart types as second argument, but I was just curious to see what the restart type was for my already running applications. I couldn’t find it in docs.

Well, I actually managed to find it via :application_controller.info/0. In the output you can see started applications with their respective restart_type.

  started: [
    recase: :temporary,
    slugify: :temporary,
    poison: :temporary,
    html_sanitize_ex: :temporary,
    ...

Not sure whether there is any other way though.
