Need to restart server after adding new example file

See original GitHub issue

I don’t remember if this is a regression or not, but every time I add a new component I have to restart the server. Hot reloading works when I make changes to the component and the md file, but new files don’t get picked up.

Here is my config:

const path = require('path')

// Exit on end of STDIN
process.stdin.resume()
process.stdin.on('end', () => process.exit(0))

module.exports = {
  title: 'My Style Guide',
  sections: [
    {
      name: 'Forms',
      components: './client/app/components/forms/**/*.js',
    },
  ],
  skipComponentsWithoutExample: true,

  getExampleFilename(componentPath) {
    return componentPath.replace(/\.js$/, '.examples.md')
  },

  getComponentPathLine(componentPath) {
    const name = path.basename(componentPath, '.js')
    const dir = path.dirname(componentPath.replace(/^client\/app/, ''))

    return `import ${name} from 'app${dir}/${name}'`
  },

  updateWebpackConfig(webpackConfig) {
    // Your source files folder or array of folders, should not include node_modules
    const clientDir = path.join(__dirname, 'client')
    webpackConfig.resolve.modules.unshift(clientDir)
    webpackConfig.module.loaders.push(
      // Babel loader will use your project’s .babelrc
      {
        test: /\.jsx?$/,
        include: clientDir,
        loader: 'babel',
      },
      {
        test: /\.css$/,
        include: [
          path.dirname(require.resolve('ress')),
          clientDir,
        ],
        loaders: [
          'style',
          'css',
        ],
      }
    )

    return webpackConfig
  },
}
