IRB::Reload

irb-reload reloads updated files into IRB session like Rails' reload command.

Add the gem to your application's development dependencies:

bundle add irb-reload --group development

Or install it directly:

gem install irb-reload

1. Add require "irb/reload" to .irbrc or bin/console.
2. Start IRB session

reload! # Reload updated files

You can tweak the watcher through IRB.conf.

IRB.conf[:RELOAD] = {
	paths: %w[app lib],               # directories to watch. Default is `lib`.
}

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to execute the test suite. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
