#1726 Swamp serve daemon doesn't run with --hot-reload
Opened by svendowideit · 8/19/2026· Shipped 8/19/2026
Description
I updated the news extension, and wasn't sure if the running swamp serve would notice
(hmmm, tbh, why doesn't swamp extension pull in a dir that is also for a swamp serve daemon do that)
kinda surprised, perhaps there's a reason?
I also tried
systemctl reload --user swamp-serve
which probably should do the same thing too
Steps to Reproduce
sven@t440s:/src/swamp/repo$ swamp serve daemon status
Status (user service): running
Enabled: yes
PID: 78163
Logs: journalctl --user -u swamp-serve
sven@t440s:/src/swamp/repo$ swamp serve reload
Error: No PID file found at /home/[REDACTED]/src/swamp/repo/.swamp/serve.pid. Is swamp serve running with --hot-reload?
Environment
- swamp version: 20260819.011806.0-sha.a9c7ee9a
- OS: ubuntu 26.04
- Shell: bash
wait, why didn't it fill this in automatically?
