Reloading
Reloading of Python files
Solara will auto detect if your script or the sourcecode of an imported module has changes. If so, Solara will reload the page.
(Note: Upgrade to solara 1.14.0 for a fix in hot reloading using pip install "solara>=1.14.0")
Reloading of .vue files
The solara server automatically watches all .vue files that are used by vue templates (there are some used in solara.components for example).
When a .vue file is saved, the widgets get updated automatically, without needing a page reload, aiding rapid development.
Reloading of .vue files
The Style component accepts a Path as argument, when that is used and the server is in development mode (the default), also CSS files will be hot reloaded.
Restarting the server after changes to the solara packages
You don't need to care about this feature if you only use solara, this is only relevant for development on solara itself, see also development instructions.
If the --auto-restart/-a flag is passed to solara-server and any changes occur in the solara package (excluding solara.webpage), solara-server will restart. This speeds up development on solara-server for developers since you do not
need to manually restart the server in the terminal.
Disabling reloading
In production mode (pass the --production argument to solara run) watching of files is disabled, and no reloading of files or vue templates will occur. If you run solara integrated in flask or uvicorn as laid out in deployment documentation
