NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::AssetPack::Pipe::Reloader - Automatically reload assets in browser

SYNOPSIS

Application

  $app->plugin(AssetPack => {pipes => ["Reloader"]);

Template

  %= asset "reloader.js" if app->mode eq "development"

Browser

The reloader can be disabled by adding the query parameter "_assetpack_reload=false" to the url, or by setting window.ASSETPACK_RELOAD = false; in JavaScript.

DESCRIPTION

Mojolicious::Plugin::AssetPack::Pipe::Reloader is a pipe which will create an asset called "reloader.js". This asset will automatically reload the page in the browser when one of the assets change on disk. This is done without the need of morbo.

This pipe should be loaded last to enable it to watch all input assets.

This feature is EXPERIMENTAL, UNSTABLE and only meant to be used while developing.

ATTRIBUTES

enabled

  $bool = $self->enabled;

This pipe is only enabled if either "MOJO_ASSETPACK_LAZY" in Mojolicious::Plugin::AssetPack is set or "mode" in Mojolicious is "development".

METHODS
