file_watcher EventedFileUpdateChecker not working on containers #3559

@andreadavanzo

Description

@andreadavanzo

the file config/environments/development.rb contains the setting

config.file_watcher = ActiveSupport::EventedFileUpdateChecker

However, this setup relies on OS-level file system events (like inotify), which don’t work reliably when the application runs on containers.

For development purposes we should use FileUpdateChecker
