How to develop javascript in KnowWE without restarting after every change#
Having to restart and rebuild KnowWE after every minor change when developing Javascript (or CSS) can be very time-consuming. There is a simple way to be able to develop without restarting.
Step by step:#
- in your IDE, navigate to:
- in this folder you find the relevant .js files (if they were integrated into the plugin properly before)
- right click the file you wish to edit and select
- to edit the file with your system's default editor
- to edit the file with Eclipse's built-in plain text editor.
Note: CSS files are located in
>>KnowWE-App/target/KnowWE-APP-0.X-SNAPSHOT/KnowWEExtension/css
Important: When finished editing or before you restart KnowWE, you have to copy and paste the file's content into the respective file in your plugin project! If you don't, the file you edited will be replaced with the old file from your plugin.
