recursive-watch

Minimal recursive file watcher.

Uses the native recursive fs.watch option on macOS/Windows and basic recursive dir watching on Linux

npm install recursive-watch

Usage

var watch = require('recursive-watch')

watch('./a-file-or-directory', function (filename) {
  console.log('something changed with', filename)
})

API

var unwatch = watch(path, onchange)

Watch a directory or filename. Calls the onchange function if the path changed in anyway. Call the unwatch function to stop watching the path.
