[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Working with Ruby

[James Bullen]

Hi Alan,

If you run in development mode you don’t need to restart for most changes - they will hot reload.

To do this, download the source and then from the archivesspace directory run the components separately like this:
	build/run backend:devserver
	build/run indexer
	build/run frontend:devserver
	build/run public:devserver

You’ll need to put your config.rb in common/config/, and the mysql connector in common/lib/, and your plugins in plugins/.

Hope that helps.


Cheers,
James

That’s not terrible, but I wondered if there’s a way to speed up the process. Is there any way to avoid restarting the application each time I make a change, such as just recompiling a single file or something like that? It would save me a lot of time in my testing.
