Developing task bar applets for Cinnamon: How to reload the code?


Working on a Cinnamon Javascript applet (Example).

How can I reload the code, so that the applet in the task bar reflects the changes I make in the Javascript?

Manually removing the applet from the task bar and then re-adding it seems not to reload the code, and is cumbersome anyway. I have to log off and log in again to see the changes.


Solution

  • Copying from my other answer:

    Use the Melange-Cinnamon debugger. To open it:

    Reload the code of the applet by finding the applet under the extensions tab, right click → reload code.
