Struct ConfigWatcher 

pub struct ConfigWatcher {
    pub receiver: Receiver<ConfigReloadEvent>,
}

Watches a config file for changes and sends reload events on a channel.

Changes are debounced by 500 ms (via notify-debouncer-mini) to avoid reacting to partial writes or rapid saves. Drop this struct to stop watching — the background thread exits when it detects the receiver has been dropped.

Fields

receiver: Receiver<ConfigReloadEvent>

Receive ConfigReloadEvents from the background thread.

Implementations

impl ConfigWatcher

pub fn start(path: &Path) -> Result<Self>

Start watching path. Returns immediately; the debouncer runs on a background thread managed by notify.

pub fn start_with_debounce(path: &Path, debounce: Duration) -> Result<Self>

Like [start] but with a configurable debounce duration. Useful in tests where a shorter debounce keeps suites fast.
