For example, say you have run an auto-formatter like black on\nyour code, but you still have an IDLE window open. Regularly, you would\nhave to close the window and re-open the file to see the changes. This\nextension allows you to reload the file's contents from what is saved\non disk without restarting IDLE.\n\n## Installation (Without root permissions)\n1) Go to terminal and install with the following command:\n```console\npip install idlereload[user]\n```\n\n2) Run configuration update/check commands:\n```console\nidleuserextend; idlereload\n```\n\nYou should see the following output:\n`Config should be good! Config should be good!`.\n\n3) Open IDLE, go to `Options` -\u003e `Configure IDLE` -\u003e `Extensions`.\nIf everything went well, alongside `ZzDummy` there should be and\noption called `idlereload`. This is where you can configure how\nidlereload works.\n\n## Installation (Legacy, needs root permission)\n1) Go to terminal and install with the following command:\n```console\npip install idlereload\n```\n\n2) Run configuration update/check commands:\n```console\nidlereload\n```\n\nYou will likely see a message saying\n`idlereload not in system registered extensions!`. Run the command\nit tells you to add idlereload to your system's IDLE extension config file.\n\n3) Run command `idlereload` again after modifying the system extension\nconfiguration file. This time, you should see the following output:\n`Config should be good!`.\n4) Open IDLE, go to `Options` -\u003e `Configure IDLE` -\u003e `Extensions`.\nIf everything went well, alongside `ZzDummy` there should be and\noption called `idlereload`. This is where you can configure how\nidlereload works.\n\n\n### Future Work\nMaybe add support for asynchronously checking if we need to reload and\ndisplay a header message like code context that disk version has changed.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcoolcat467%2Fidlereload","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcoolcat467%2Fidlereload","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcoolcat467%2Fidlereload/lists"}
