A globbing fs.watch wrapper built from the best parts of other fine watch libs.
Compatible with Node.js 0.10/0.8, Windows, OSX and Linux.
Install the module with: npm install gaze
or place into your package.json
and run npm install
.
var gaze = require('gaze');
// Watch all .js files/dirs in process.cwd()
gaze('**/*.js', function(err, watcher) {
// Files have all started watching
// watcher === this
// Get all watched files
console.log(this.watched());
// On file changed
this.on('changed', function(filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was changed');
});
// On file added
this.on('added', function(filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was added');
});
// On file deleted
this.on('deleted', function(filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was deleted');
});
// On changed/added/deleted
this.on('all', function(event, filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was ' + event);
});
// Get watched files with relative paths
console.log(this.relative());
});
// Also accepts an array of patterns
gaze(['stylesheets/*.css', 'images/**/*.png'], function() {
// Add more patterns later to be watched
this.add(['js/*.js']);
});
var Gaze = require('gaze').Gaze;
var gaze = new Gaze('**/*');
// Files have all started watching
gaze.on('ready', function(watcher) { });
// A file has been added/changed/deleted has occurred
gaze.on('all', function(event, filepath) { });
gaze('**/*', function() {
this.on('error', function(err) {
// Handle error here
});
});
See isaacs's minimatch for more information on glob patterns.

Wrapper?I liked parts of other fs.watch
wrappers but none had all the features I
needed. This lib combines the features I needed from other fine watch libs:
Speedy data behavior from
paulmillr's chokidar, API interface
from mikeal's watch and file globbing using
isaacs's glob which is also used by
cowboy's Grunt.
EMFILE: Too many opened files.
?This is because of your system's max opened file limit. For OSX the default is
very low (256). Increase your limit temporarily with ulimit -n 10480
, the
number being the new max limit.
In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using grunt.
