HRM is not working on Ruby on Rails with Webpacker and Docker

I have a container in docker with Ruby on Rails 6, Webpacker and react-rails, when I reload the page it lates more than 20 seconds to compile so I want to add hot reload to my project but it is just not working. The webpack-dev-server es running well but the page is not updating the changes.

I am using foreman to run bin/webpack-dev-server and rails server and I am using react-refresh-webpack-plugin to refresh react. When I change code the page is not receiving the changes even if I reload the page.

Solution

  • I could solve it, webpack was not watching my files, I added aggregateTimeout: 300 and poll: 500 in watch_options of my webpacker.yml, and it worked.
