Support refreshing the page

[paulirish]

The other day I really wanted to refresh my page after saving a change in VSCode. Can you make ctrl-R work?

(jam3/devtool does have ctrl-r hooked up to restart the node.js instance, too. I love it.)

[roblourens]

Thanks for the suggestion, yes I would really like to support that, although it's not as straightforward as I'd like. Closest I can suggest at the moment is the Restart button, which is cmd+shift+f5. Not quite the same, it will restart the entire browser. It restarts the Node instance in Node debugging too. You could map this to ctrl+r like

{ "key": "ctrl+r", "command": "workbench.action.debug.restart",
    "when": "inDebugMode" }

@roblourens What makes this feature complicated?

[roblourens]

Just that a debug adapter can't customize the behavior of the restart button at the moment. We talked about this in the past month, and I filed this bug to discuss - microsoft/vscode#14189

@roblourens This has landed right? Should we update the README with instructions on how to bind the shortcut?

[roblourens]

Oh right, I had duplicate issues.

[auchenberg]

@roblourens So mapping this will make the page refresh right?

{
   "key": "ctrl+r",
    "command": "workbench.action.debug.restart",
    "when": "inDebugMode"
}

[roblourens]

Yes
