Plugin hot reloading #32

Open cbojar opened 9 years ago

cbojar commented 9 years ago

It's a pain to have to shut down then restart a JBot instance just to reload the plugins. We should add a way to reload plugins while keeping JBot connected. Maybe something like: https://gist.github.com/dominikh/2179973 ?

Just a note that the original source of that plugin is here in case there are ever any revisions upstream.

Moved this to +1, not even sure this is the proper approach to take any longer.

I think it still makes sense, just need to figure out the right approach.

rikai commented 8 years ago

Well, there's not really a non-messy way of doing it.

The alternative is the quassel-ruby approach i was telling you about.
