## Overview
|
|
|
|
Dioxus supports hot reloading for static parts of rsx macros. This enables changing the styling of your application without recompiling the rust code. This is useful for rapid iteration on the styling of your application.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hot reloading could update the following change without recompiling:
|
|
```rust
|
|
rsx! {
|
|
div {
|
|
"Count: {count}",
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
=>
|
|
```rust
|
|
rsx! {
|
|
div {
|
|
color: "red",
|
|
font_size: "2em",
|
|
"Count: {count}",
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
But it could not update the following change:
|
|
```rust
|
|
rsx! {
|
|
div {
|
|
"Count: {count}",
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
=>
|
|
```rust
|
|
rsx! {
|
|
div {
|
|
"Count: {count*2}",
|
|
onclick: |_| println!("clicked"),
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
> This crate implements hot reloading for native compilation targets not WASM. For hot relaoding with the web renderer, see the [dioxus-cli](https://github.com/DioxusLabs/cli) project.
|
|
|
|
Add this to the top of your main function on any renderer that supports hot reloading to start the hot reloading server:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
fn main(){
|
|
hot_reload_init!();
|
|
// launch your application
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default the dev server watches on the `src` and `examples` folders in the root crate directory. To watch on custom paths pass the paths into the hot relaod macro:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
fn main(){
|
|
hot_reload_init!("src", "examples", "assets");
|
|
// launch your application
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default the hot reloading server will output some logs in the console, to disable these logs pass the `disable logging` flag into the macro:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
fn main(){
|
|
hot_reload_init!("src", "examples", "assets", disable logging);
|
|
// launch your application
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are using a namespace other than html, you can implement the [HotReloadingContext](https://docs.rs/dioxus-rsx/latest/dioxus_rsx/trait.HotReloadingContext.html) trait to provide a mapping between the rust names of your elements/attributes and the resultsing strings.
|
|
|
|
You can then provide the Context to the macro to make hot reloading work with your custom namespace:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
fn main(){
|
|
hot_reload_init!(@MyNamespace /*more configeration*/);
|
|
// launch your application
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Implementing Hot Reloading for a Custom Renderer
|
|
|
|
To add hot reloading support to your custom renderer you can use the connect function. This will connect to the dev server you just need to provide a way to transfer `Template`s to the `VirtualDom`. Once you implement this your users can use the hot_reload_init function just like any other render.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
async fn launch(app: Component) {
|
|
let mut vdom = VirtualDom::new(app);
|
|
// ...
|
|
|
|
let (tx, mut rx) = tokio::sync::mpsc::unbounded_channel();
|
|
dioxus_hot_reload::connect(move |template| {
|
|
let _ = tx.send(template);
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
loop {
|
|
tokio::select! {
|
|
Some(template) = rx.recv() => {
|
|
// update the template in the virtual dom
|
|
vdom.replace_template(template);
|
|
}
|
|
_ = vdom.wait_for_work() => {
|
|
// ...
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
let mutations = vdom.render_immediate();
|
|
// apply the mutations to the dom
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
