How to reload secrets.yml without restart rails server?

Question

How to reload secrets.yml without restart rails server, like if I manually update secrets.yml credentials on updating it will auto load to the rails application

eg in secrets.yml

   api_key: 1111111111

In the application, I can access using

   puts Rails.application.secrets.api_key
   => '1111111111'

for example, if I manually update secrets.yml file

   api_key: 222222222

In the application, the result should have to be this

   puts Rails.application.secrets.api_key
   => '222222222'

Without restarting server

Answer 1

You should be able to add a line to your config/spring.rb:

Spring.watch "config/secrets.yml"

This will allow Spring to detect when changes have occurred in your secrets.yml file.
