hotside
lets you hotload inside another environment, without hijacking your ordinary web host. It gets you a fast hook that watches over the node_modules
folder and lets you hot-load yourself.
For example: You're building a plugin for an existing environment that does not support hot module replacement, and reloading the entire environment is taking a lot of time, you would rather just reload the specific component you're working on.
Navigate to your root directory and use npm i hotside && npx hotside
You're now running the hotside service and will see something like Started on port 16567
In your code, you can use hotside like this to get a hook with a new instance of a component each time it updates:
import myComponentFactory from 'my-component';
import hot from 'hotside';
let mycomponent = myComponentFactory();
hot('node_modules/my-component/dist/comp.js', (newComponentFactory) => {
mycomponent = newComponentFactory();
});
node_modules
folder, but it's made for linking packages.FAQs
