### Reload dev server on component file changes
|
|
|
|
This is relevant if you are using the project structure as shown in our examples, where
|
|
HTML, JS, CSS and Python are in separate files and nested in a directory.
|
|
|
|
In this case you may notice that when you are running a development server,
|
|
the server sometimes does not reload when you change component files.
|
|
|
|
From relevant [StackOverflow thread](https://stackoverflow.com/a/76722393/9788634):
|
|
|
|
> TL;DR is that the server won't reload if it thinks the changed file is in a templates directory,
|
|
> or in a nested sub directory of a templates directory. This is by design.
|
|
|
|
To make the dev server reload on all component files, set
|
|
[`reload_on_file_change`](#reload_on_file_change---reload-dev-server-on-component-file-changes)
|
|
to `True`.
|
|
This configures Django to watch for component files too.
|
|
|
|
!!! note
|
|
|
|
This setting should be enabled only for the dev environment!
