Add support for *file-watching* and *reloading* #60

Closed ebekker closed 7 years ago

ebekker commented 7 years ago

During development and testing of PowerShell script(s) that are driving the behavior of the PS5 Handler, it would be useful to have the handler watch for changes to certain files, such as the PS script files and automatically reload the PowerShell Runspace with the newest changes.

Right now, it's necessary to stop and start the server manually to pickup any changes.

Agreed. Also @theJasonHelmick pointed out that once Tug is started up it should return control of the ISE/powershell console to the user and continue running in the background.

Because of the way that ASP.NET Core operates (it's essentially a console application that hosts its own Web server (Kestrel)) the way to fix that is to deploy it so that it's fronted by IIS.

I'll add into the Install-TugServer installation logic shortly.

I've moved Jason's request to #65.
