epinio app watch​

Watch a local directory and sync changes to the running application

epinio app watch NAME [flags]

Description​

Watches the source directory for changes and syncs them into the running pod.

On the first run (no local state file) a full buildpack push is performed and the running deployment is patched with a supervisor wrapper. On subsequent runs only changed files or the rebuilt binary are uploaded via the Epinio API, without going through the buildpack pipeline.

Configure binary mode (compiled languages) or override sync paths by placing an .epinio-sync.yaml file in the source directory. See Inner-loop development with app watch for a full guide.

Options​

  -h, --help               help for watch
  -n, --namespace string   Namespace the application lives in (overrides targeted namespace)
      --path string        Path to the application source directory (defaults to current directory)
