Resetting reloading tpl files

[Steve]

Okay I don't want to pull the site down and up every time it seems like I change TPL files and some update automatically while others don't..

Is there a command line that will reload the TPL into memory?

[psychobunny]

I use supervisor

sudo npm install supervisor -g

and then run nodebb like so:

./nodebb watch

everytime you update any file .less, .tpl etc, it relaunches nodebb for you

[trevor]

This works for the header.tpl & footer.tpl as well? I usually would have to restart the app also using forever restart app.js

[psychobunny]

yup definitely. but if you're using supervisor then you won't be using forever

supervisor for dev, forever for production

[Steve]

perfecto, thanks

[trevor]

<--- npm install supervisor -g
Okay thanks @psychobunny,now I know the difference between the two.

I don't know if my technique is the proper way but what I did:

Backed up my TPL files.
Deleted the 3 or 4 I had modified.
Git pull.
Copy the edited TPL files back in.

Unless they edit a TPL file in an update that shouldn't be an issue. If they do edit one, you will have to make your custom changes as necessary.

Looks like you need to run npm install.

@pablo_macaluso - Read the errors carefully - git is telling you exactly what is wrong!

If the language seems cryptic, google it, don't just blindly assume linux commands worked
