Reload middleman when data/ file change

How do I force middleman to reload when I edit the data file?

For example. This is my app:

├── Gemfile
├── Gemfile.lock
├── config.rb
├── data
│   └── products.yml
└── source
    ├── ...

When I edit data/products.yml the data does not appear on the site until I manually restart the server with bundle exec middleman.

Solution

  • It works if you manually add data to the reload paths

    middleman server --reload-paths data/
