@AlCalzone
Who can check / discuss this?

@oweitman
Is this issue still reproduceable with latest version of adapter creator?

[AlCalzone]

Is this issue still reproduceable

I think so, yes. There is exactly one occurence of watch:parcel and that's in the devcontainer script. Looks like that got forgotten when we switched the build process to esbuild: https://github.com/ioBroker/create-adapter/blob/master/docs/updates/20220215_esbuild.md

The devcontainer probably needs to be changed to use esbuild's serve mode instead of parcel: https://esbuild.github.io/api/#serve
Happy to take a PR if someone finds the time to figure this out and test it.

@oweitman I strongly recommend to use https://github.com/ioBroker/dev-server/ instead of the devcontainer instead.

[oweitman]

it would not be that I would have tried the dev-server as well. but the situation is the same there. It is asked, but never answered to the end to reach a solution.
and this issue issnt opend by me, but i wrote the first time about this in forum
ioBroker/dev-server#286

by the way, why create a PR. these are not implemented either
#992

[AlCalzone]

Please retry with the latest version of the dev server. If that doesn't work, please provide a concrete example/repo/commit someone can use to reproduce your problem.

Are you saying the linked PR fixes your issue?
If so, how can we verify it works? A problematic adapter for example?

[oweitman]

no the pr dosnt fix this issue.
as described it fix the not working websockets and addition removes a container that is useless, because there is no parcel anymore.
but i am repeating my self. please read the description of the pr

and you already wrote, that you missed yomething in changing from parcel to esbuild

[AlCalzone]

I'm repeating myself too: please provide a concrete example/repo/commit someone can use to reproduce your problem

Without that, this issue isn't likely to get fixed, as I (and likely the other devs too) am not going to spend my very limited time trying to read forum posts to figure out how to get to the same point you're stuck on.

Please make sure the issue description is complete and self-explanatory.
