Rails app running on Pow not reloading for changes in /lib directory
rack-pow, ruby, ruby-on-rails
Solution
You'll want to restart pow after changing files in /lib because Rails initializes objects here as it starts up and doesn't load them again after having started up (so changes while the server is up won't make a difference). To overcome this, you have a few options:
You may want to look at using `require_dependency`.
You can restart Pow by touching the restart.txt file: `touch ~/.pow/restart.txt`
For a more convenient solution if you're changing your lib folder a lot, add anvil to handle your restarts easily.
If you don't want to do this, just add your classes to the /app path into a new folder.
Problem
After many googling I've tried adding both of these to my config and yet reloading doesn't happen: ``` config.autoload_paths += %W(#{config.root}/lib) config.autoload_paths += Dir["#{config.root}/lib/**/"] ``` I make changes to files under /lib but refreshing in Pow doesn't reload the changes What am I missing?
