Description

@plaird

The devtools feature of Spring Boot is intended to speed up development. Details:

This will take some investigation, but I believe we need to do the following:

  • when building the jar/war packages, we need to exclude devtools by default for security reasons (don't want them in production)
  • have an attribute to include devtools for jar/war (see excludeDevtools property in Maven)
  • have a devtools variant of bazel run that uses the exploded form of the Spring Boot launcher
    • this is key, because devtools does not work when launched from jar, which is how we launch today
  • wire up all the locations that Bazel puts compiled resources into the devtools launcher
