So if I'm correct the idea is that on save this project would rebuild the application and hot reload every imported module and serve it via a server?
The goal of this project is to just build html, and not serve the html so this could be considered out of scope.
Looking at awesome-bun it seems that there are some hmr packages. Granted that repo isn't very up to date.
The first is bun-html-live-reload and the second is bun-livereload.
Currently how I would do what you wish to do is make a build file such as this.
import html from 'bun-plugin-html';
import { withHtmlLiveReload } from 'bun-html-live-reload';
await Bun.build({
entrypoints: ['./src/index.html'],
outdir: './dist', // Specify the output directory
plugins: [
html({ inline: true })
],
});
export default withHtmlLiveReload({
fetch: () => {
return new Response(Bun.file('./dist/index.ts'), {
headers: { "Content-Type": "text/html" },
});
},
});Then run using bun --hot example.ts
Keep in mind this might not work since I haven't tested it.
Despite potentially being out of scope. If there is no alternative or the convenience of such a built in option is significant this can change.
Please elaborate on how exactly you would envision the option working? Maybe something like...
html({
serve: true,
hmr: true
})As for difficulty it is probably pretty easy to implement.
I would like to migrate from parcel to bun in my bundling process. I also want it to support the dev environment, so my dev is the most similar as possible to prod.
But one limitation is the lack of HMR that parcel supports: https://en.parceljs.org/hmr.html
Would it be possible to add this to this repo? Not sure how hard that would be.
