sails-hook-autoreload
Sails JS hook to autoreload controllers, models and locales when changed.
Installation
npm install sails-hook-autoreload
Usage
requires at least sails >= 0.11
Just lift your app as normal, and when you add / change / remove a model, controller or service file, all controllers, models, and services will be reloaded without having to lower / relift the app. This includes all blueprint routes.
Configuration
By default, configuration lives in sails.config.autoreload. The configuration key (autoreload) can be changed by setting sails.config.hooks['sails-hook-autoreload'].configKey.
| Parameter | Type | Details |
|---|---|---|
| active | ((boolean)) | Whether or not the hook should watch for controller / model / service changes. Defaults to true. |
| usePolling | ((boolean)) | Whether or not to use the polling feature. Slower but necessary for certain environments. Defaults to false. |
| dirs | ((array)) | Array of strings indicating which folders should be watched. Defaults to the api/models, api/controllers, and api/services folders. Note that this won't change the set of files being reloaded, but the set of files being watched for changes. As for now, it's not possible to add new directories to be reloaded. |
| ignored | ((array|string|regexp|function)) | Files and/or directories to be ignored. Pass a string to be directly matched, string with glob patterns, regular expression test, function that takes the testString as an argument and returns a truthy value if it should be matched, or an array of any number and mix of these types. For more examples look up anymatch docs. |
Example
// [your-sails-app]/config/autoreload.js
module.exports.autoreload = {
active: true,
usePolling: false,
dirs: [
"api/models",
"api/controllers",
"api/services",
"config/locales"
],
ignored: [
// Ignore all files with .ts extension
"**.ts"
]
};That’s it!
