Module: Weft::Autoloading

Defined in:
lib/weft/autoloading.rb

Overview

Zeitwerk-backed autoloading for application code, behind configure_autoloading. Each call builds one Zeitwerk loader over the given paths and eager-loads it immediately — Weft routes from the Registry, which populates via the inherited hook, so the classes must exist before the first request (lazy autoload alone would serve an empty route table).

With reload: true, a per-request Router hook reloads constants, and Zeitwerk's on_unload callback evicts each outgoing class from the registry as it unloads — the push-model complement to Registry#evict, which hand-rolled reloaders call directly.
