Description

Here's something odd I noticed. I've been using the template with mongodb hook in, and it's all running fine, I've verified that I can add to and fetch from the database, etc. But while all the other namespaces happily hot-reload when I have everything running and edit the file, the db.core namespace does not: if I add a function to it, I have to restart in order to make it accessible from routes and such. Without restart I get compilation errors of the "symbol not found" variety whenever trying to call anything from db.core

Is this expected behavior?

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior described for the db.core namespace in the MongoDB-hook template while editing a function and calling it from routes. Compare this with the other namespaces that hot-reload, then determine whether db.core should reload without restarting; done means the behavior is corrected or clearly documented.
