Web Development

I want to develop server and client web with ktor, but when coding I don’t want to restart application every time. How could I do with this option?

This main application:
fun main(args: Array<String>): Unit = io.ktor.server.netty.EngineMain.main(args)

Kotlin version: 1.3.70
Ktor version: 1.3.2

Thank you!

As that, I need to apply my main function following this block below!

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    embeddedServer(
        Netty,
        watchPaths = listOf("solutions/exercise4"),
        port = 8080,
        module = Application::mymodule
    ).apply { start(wait = true) }
}

fun Application.mymodule() {
    routing {
        get("/plain") {
            call.respondText("Hello World!")
        }
    }
}

Because my original main block is like that,

fun main(args: Array<String>): Unit = io.ktor.server.netty.EngineMain.main(args)
