Reloader#
Reloader watches ConfigMaps and Secrets for changes and automatically rolls the pods that depend on them. Without Reloader, updating a ConfigMap does not restart the pods that reference it — the new value only takes effect on the next manual rollout.
Annotate your workload once and Reloader handles rolling updates automatically whenever the referenced resource changes.
