Generator-jhipster: Not recompiling on change when using docker and docker-compose for a microservices architecture

[iliasnaamane]

Overview of the issue

I faced this problem when building docker images and generating docker-compose.yml for my microservices. Unfortunately, I cannot use docker as a development environment, since it is not automatically reload after code changes and it is a waste of time since it requires rebuilding images and lauching again.

Motivation for or Use Case

what is the problem here, thats how it works. If you want live reload the use the development workflow and not docker. Run applications(except registry and console) using ./mvnw or ./gradlew and run yarn start for gateway

@deepu105 thanks for your quick response, but actually I want live reload with docker, since I am using ElasticSearch and it is not embedded based on @jdubois response on a previous issue https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster/issues/7413 . Otherwise you can see that it is possible to use docker as a development tool with live reload on spirng http://endoflineblog.com/optimizing-development-with-docker

what do you think about that? It can be possible to PR this issue?

Thanks

If you know how to make it work, then please do a PR and we can consider it
based on how it fits our flow

Thanks & Regards,

You can launch the Elasticsearch docker container with docker-compose -f src/main/docker/elasticsearch.yml up -d and connect to it from the app running with ./mvnw or ./gradlew
