on GitHub

Conditional Sync Commands

• New option dev.sync[*].onUpload.exec that allows you to define commands that are executed on certain file changes. DevSpace makes sure that these commands are only executed after initial sync has finished and before the container might be restarted. For example:

deployments:
- name: app-backend
  helm:
    componentChart: true
    values:
      containers:
      - image: john/devbackend
dev:
  sync:
  - imageSelector: john/devbackend
    onUpload:
      # These post-sync commands will be executed after DevSpace synced changes to the container in the given order
      exec: 
      - onChange: ["./package.json"]
        command: |-
          npm install

Persistent Paths

• New option dev.replacePods[*].persistPaths that allows you to persist certain paths with PVCs within the replaced pod for quicker syncing. For example:

dev:
  replacePods:
  - imageSelector: my-app/dev
    persistPaths:
    - path: /app
      # Optional path on the persistent volume to mount
      # volumePath: /my-volume/app
      # Optional name of the container to persist this path
      # containerName: my-container
