Docker hot reloading feature does not work

[lesurJ]

Description

Hello,

I developed some extensions under Isaac Sim and i made good use of the hot reloading feature. However, this hot reloading feature is not working when running Isaac Sim in a docker environment. Which means, i need to manually re-launch my extension to make the changes work.

How should one develop extension in docker while benefiting from the hot reloading feature?

Thanks

5.1.0

Operating System (OS)

Thanks for reporting this issue!

To help us further isolate the problem, could you please confirm whether hot-reloading works as expected when running Isaac Sim in a native workstation (non-Docker) environment, using the “Hello World” example extension from the official Isaac Sim documentation?
Reference: https://docs.isaacsim.omniverse.nvidia.com/5.1.0/core_api_tutorials/tutorial_core_hello_world.html

Does hot-reloading fail only when using Docker, or are you seeing issues in both environments? Any additional details about your workflow or steps to reproduce (especially if the behavior differs between workstation and container) would be helpful for troubleshooting.

Thank you!

I confirm that hot-reloading works just fine with a native installation.
But it is not working in a docker container.
See this thread on the Isaac Sim forum
