import { checkIfSchemaChanged } from 'strapi-startup-optimizer';

export default {
  async bootstrap({ strapi }) {
    const hasChanged = await checkIfSchemaChanged({
      patterns: [
        'src/api/*/content-types/*/schema.json',
        'src/components/**/*.json'
      ]
    });

    if (!hasChanged) {
      console.log("Skipping heavy bootstrap tasks...");
      return;
    }

    // Your heavy bootstrap logic here
    await seedDatabase();
  }
};
