SBT stop run without exiting

Question

How do you terminate a run in SBT without exiting?

I\'m trying CTRL+C but it exits SBT. Is there a way to only exit the running application while keeping SBT open?

Answer 1

Consider using sbt-revolver. We use it in our company and it's really handy. For what you're asking can be done with:

reStart

reStop

Without need to configure build.sbt file.

Your can use this plugin by adding:

addSbtPlugin("io.spray" % "sbt-revolver" % "0.9.1")

To your project/plugins.sbt
