QuickReload triggering

[Vladimir Vasic]

Is it true that one must manually trigger QuickReload by executing:

atlas-mvn package -DskipTests

in terminal in project directory?

I read somewhere that QuickReload triggers automatically every 20s or so as a default behaviour, but I can not verify this.

[Akeles · Accepted solution]

Yes, you are right. When a new version of the jar file is created in the target directory, the QuickReload will then upload it in the application.

You can also use to save some keystrokes.

atlas-package

You can find more information from https://bitbucket.org/atlassianlabs/quickreload

If you are modifying css, templates or javascript, a browser page refresh should reload the changes. There is no need to re-package the jar again.

Can you please provide me pom.xml which enables resource files change to take effect without reinstalling the plugin?

I can't achieve that with my pom.xml:

The changes to resource files can be automatically updated only when you are using atlas-run.

It is not part of FastDev/QuickReload.

[Vladimir Vasic]

I couldn't make changes visible with just reloading page even in atlas-run mode.

Hello,

You need to turn on dev mode for JS and CSS reloading. (Just press the B key in the browser)
