Running in dev mode

Talisman, in development mode, leverages the talisman-devmode container along with camel-jbang to facilitate rapid development and testing of integrations. This guide outlines the steps to run integrations quickly while developing.

Developer Mode Features:

1. Camel-jbang: Run fast in a dedicated container.
2. Hot Reload: Instantly see the results of your changes.
3. Developer Console: Access useful tools and insights.
4. Exchange Message Tracing: Monitor and debug message flows within your integration.

Why run in the cluster instead of locally?

Developer Mode runs your integration in the same container runtime as production, with direct access to Kubernetes Secrets and ConfigMaps — no local ports to enterprise systems, no locally stored credentials, and no second configuration workflow to maintain. See Web UI-Driven Development for the full rationale.

When you're ready to run your integration, simply follow these steps:

1. Access the Project Panel: Navigate to your project.
2. Run Your Integration: Locate the Run button in the top-right panel of your project interface.
