kemal-watcher

Kemal plugin to watch files like client stuff.

Installation

Add this to your application's shard.yml:

dependencies:
  kemal-watcher:
    github: faustinoaq/kemal-watcher

Usage

Add Kemal.watch to your Kemal app to watch files.

require "kemal"
require "kemal-watcher"

get "/" do
  File.read "src/views/index.html"
end

files = [
  "public/*.js",
  "public/*.html"
]

Kemal.watch(files)

How does it works?

Kemal.watch uses watcher to watch files and add a new handler to Kemal that inject a script in the response. When a change is detected an event handler is executed and then send a reload signal to the clients.
