files and restart the server
SYNOPSIS
my $class = Catalyst::Restarter->pick_subclass;
my $restarter = $class->new(
directories => '/path/to/MyApp',
regex => '\.yml$|\.yaml$|\.conf|\.pm$',
start_sub => sub { ... }
);
$restarter->run_and_watch;
DESCRIPTION
This is the base class for all restarters, and it also provide
functionality for picking an appropriate restarter subclass for a given
platform.
This class uses File::ChangeNotify to watch one or more directories of
files and restart the Catalyst server when any of those files changes.
METHODS
pick_subclass
Returns the name of an appropriate subclass for the given platform.
new ( start_sub => sub { ... }, ... )
This method creates a new restarter object, but should be called on a
subclass, not this class.
The "start_sub" argument is required. This is a subroutine reference
that can be used to start the Catalyst server.
run_and_watch
This method forks, starts the server in a child process, and then
watched for changed files in the parent. When files change, it kills
the child, forks again, and starts a new server.
