JRebel support about gradle-vaadin-plugin HOT 1 CLOSED

To use JRebel you will need the jrebel.jar and a valid active license. The easiest way to gain these are to install JRebel in your IDE which will download and activate the jar (if you have a valid license). You can also download jrebel as a zip and install it locally but it is a bit tedious, look for jrebel-x.x.x.zip on their download site http://zeroturnaround.com/software/jrebel/download, download it and run the necessary scripts that comes with it. I found following the JRebel steps here http://flurdy.com/docs/intellij/ helping somewhat. But again, installing through your IDE will be much easier so I recommend going for that.

Once you have JRebel setup configuring it with the plugin is easy. Add the following to your build.gradle and you are done.

vaadin.jrebel.enabled = true
vaadin.jrebel.location = /absolute/path/to/jrebel.jar

After that jrebel will be active whenever you are running the project with vaadinRun or devmode.
