This tiny CLI tool watches for changes in *.imba files and restarts the given imba file as node application. It is needed when you develop server-side application in Imba.
Uses chokidar under the hood.
Doesn't create compiled js-files -> no mess with temporary output js-files.
- Install package as develop dependency:
yarn add imba-node-watch -D - Add script for monitoring in your package.json:
"dev": "imbaw source/index.imba". imbaw is a cli program to monitor and restart imba app and it takes only one parameter - the filename to run. - Start your application:
yarn dev
I use yarn, but the same would work with npm.
