Controlling load order of julia files
The default load sequence of Julia files inside the plugins, libs, controllers folders is alphabetical. However, sometimes you might want to control the default load order of .jl files. Let's assume we have a directory with a few of .jl files as follows
Aaa.jl
Abb.jl
Abc.jl
def.jl
Foo.jl
-x-yz.jl
To set the loading order, create a .autoload file in the directory containing your .jl listing the load order as:
--x-yz.jl
def.jl
Abc.jl
-Foo.jl
where (-) means exclude the file from Genie's autoload sequence and (--) means remove files starting with (-) from Genie Load sequence. Now the load order of our directory is going to be
def.jl
Abc.jl
Aaa.jl
Abb.jl
.autoload_ignore:
Creating an empty .autoload_ignore file in a directory causes all files contained in the folder to be excluded from Genie's startup load order.
.autoload
