file-reloader allows user program to reload automatically when source code of user program changes

Project description

file_reloader Library

The file_reloader library provides a convenient way for users to automatically reload their Python programs whenever the source code changes. This can be particularly useful during development and testing phases.

Installation

pip install file-reloader

Usage

  1. Import the file_reloader module from the Reloader library.

    from file_reloader import Reloader
    
  2. Create an instance of the Reloader class.

    my_reloader = Reloader()
    
  3. Add the following code at the end of your program to enable automatic reloading.

    my_reloader.reloader()
    

Parameters

  • file_path (str): Absolute path of the file (default is sys.argv[0]).
  • args (List[str]): Extra arguments required for the program (default is None).
  • reload_time (int): Expected amount of time after which the reloader checks for updates (default is 5 sec).

Now, whenever you make changes to your source code and save the file, the program will automatically reload without the need to restart it manually.

Example

# your_program.py

import file_reloader

# Your program code goes here...

my_reloader = file_reloader.Reloader()

my_reloader.reloader()

Important Note

Ensure that you place the reloader() call at the end of your program to avoid any interference with the rest of your code.
