Gazeer - A cli for gaze.

Watch some files, do some things

Feature

0. Support multiple patterns.
1. Support multiple commands in order.
2. High performance.

Installation

$ npm install gazeer

Usage

$ gazeer -p '**/*.js' -c 'babel $filepath' 

[src/index.js changes]

> babel src/index.js

Multiple patterns

gaze accepts an array of patterns, so does gazeer:

$ gazeer -p '**/*.js' -p '!node_modules/**/*' -c 'babel $filepath'

[index.js changes]

> babel index.js

Multiple commands

gazeer also accepets multiple commands, and there will run in order. Otherwise you can specify some replacement marks.

$ gazeer -p '**/*.js' -p '!node_modules/**/*' -c 'babel $filepath -o $dirname/../build/$basename' -c 'eslint $filepath'

[src/index.js changes]

> babel src/index.js -o src/../build/index.js
> eslint src/index.js

Arbitrary watch tasks with npm run

If you haven't read substack's post describing lightweight build steps with npm run, I'll give you a moment to get up to speed.

Here's how you might use gazeer to run a build task every time a file changes:

{
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "eslint --fix --config .eslintrc *.js src/*.js",
    "watch-test": "./src/gazeer.js -p 'src/*.js' -c 'babel \"$filepath\" -o \"$dirname/../index.js\"' -c 'npm run lint'",
  }
}

And then start the watcher:

$ npm run watch-test

Contributing

Bug reports and pull requests are welcome. Code should follow the existing style and pass lint.

To run lint: npm run lint.
