I was wondering if it is possible to change something in the app.js while the skill is running, I’m trying but I don’t think that it’s possible, am I right?


#2

Could you describe a bit more what you’re trying to achieve with this?


#3

I would like to know if it was possible to change one function in app.js while the server is running. I have my skill in review, but I need to change one thing, I can’t close the server because if they do the review it’s not going to work. Is there a way to change the function and updating the server while is running without shutting it down?

No, you can’t change your code while it’s running, you’d need to restart the server, depending on where it’s sitting tho it shouldn’t be noticeable too much.
