The Runnable FileSystem Resource is just like a file system resource, with the addition that, when configured as input to a reloadable service, it will call code that the you supply prior to checking whether the service needs to be refreshed. This gives you the ability to be involved prior to a service being updated.
...
The injected class "runnable" (which has to implement java.lang.Runnable) is expected to update the file if required. It could
Connect to a database to refresh the file
Reach across the network (using a protocol other than HTTP) to refresh the resource
By a script - the ScriptedRunnable is described below.
ScriptedRunnable
This class, when injected into a RunnableFileSystemResource, allows a script to be run as part of a ReloadableService refresh. There are only two properties which can be set: "script" an EvaluableScript to be run and "customObject".
