server-reload

Reload server files using a combination of Node's cluster and Facebook's watchman.

Installation

First, make sure you have watchman install and available on your $PATH. For instructions about how to install, check the official guide.

Install using NPM:

npm install @fnando/server-reload --save-dev

or Yarn:

yarn add @fnando/server-reload --dev

Usage

Imagine you have a file structure like this:

/Projects/foo-bar
├── package.json
├── src
│   └── server.js
└── yarn.lock

1 directory, 3 files

To use regular Node.js binary, call the server-reload binary:

./node_modules/.bin/server-reload \
    --pattern src/server \
    --pattern package.json \
    --entry src/server.js \
    --root $(pwd)

But if you need to transform your files using Babel.js, use server-reload-babel instead:

./node_modules/.bin/server-reload-babel \
    --pattern src/server \
    --pattern package.json \
    --entry src/server.js \
    --root $(pwd)
