Modify page without restarting (asv)?
3 points by byrneseyeview 6024 days ago | 4 comments
How do I edit a function while the server is running? e.g. as in the tutorial, if I do (defop hello req (pr "hello world")) and then view it, is it possible to edit the function 'hello' without quitting 'asv', and if so, how is this done?

Just redefine the function.

  arc> (defop hello req
         (pr "hello world")
         (defop hello req
           (pr "hello again")))
  #<procedure:gs1780>
  arc> (asv)
  ready to serve port 8080
When you load the page the first time, it will say "hello world", on subsequent times it'll say "hello again".

After entering (asv), I don't have an arc prompt, and to get the prompt I have to quit (asv), which means that loading the '/hello' page gives an error. Can I get the arc prompt while (asv) is running?

In order to get to the arc prompt, you'll need to run the application server (asv) in a separate thread, you can do so with the following code:

  (= app (thread (asv)))
and, you can stop the server with the this code:

  (break-thread app)
Once Arc's app server is running in a separate thread you'll have full access to the Arc repl and you'll then be able to modify your application on the fly.
