Speeding up the hot reload using Chrome Dev Tools or Admin Update?

[Matthew_Roy]

Hi,

I wanted to inquire about a general solution for speeding up the Hot Reload -- whether that be from the Chrome Nuxeo Dev Tools or the Update via the Admin Portal. Currently, it takes about 2-3 minutes for a Hot Reload to execute from start-to-finish with the new package from Nuxeo Studio to be deployed.

I just wanted to see if there was anything we can do, either server/platform side or Nuxeo Studio configuration side, to help speed up this performance?

Thanks!

Hello,

You can install https://connect.nuxeo.com/nuxeo/site/marketplace/package/marketplace-disable-studio-snapshot-validat... on your Nuxeo instance (Note: this is a Nuxeo Labs addon, not supported in Production). In any case, a standard hot reload should take around 10s.

Thanks for the quick reply, Gregory! I installed the package you linked above, and I have noticed a considerable improvement in the reload time. We are reloading at around 1 minute now, down from 2-3 minutes previously.

To improve your configuration deployment speed:

• If you've deployed nuxeo-web-ui and you are working on the UI aspect, please use the Designer Live Preview button from the Browser Extension: It allows you to deploy the UI resources just by refreshing the webpage
• Are you using nuxeo-jsf-ui? I've worked for a long time with nuxeo-jsf-ui and hotreload was never an issue, but we know the system stop and start faster without it
• Are you running Nuxeo on Windows / Linux / ... ? What about your hardware resources ?

• We have not deployed nuxeo-web-ui and are are not utilizing web-ui within our application
