npm-scripts-watcher

Globbing file watcher to automatically run npm scripts from package.json when files change, with pretty colors.

Usage

First install it as a devDependency:

npm i -D npm-scripts-watcher

Add a top-level watch config to your package.json and a watch script to your scripts:

{
  "scripts": {
    "test": "mocha",
    "watch": "npm-scripts-watcher"
  },
  "watch": {
    "{src,test}/**/*.js": ["test"]
  }
}

Keys in the watch object should be globs and values should be an array of script names as specified in scripts.

Now you can start the file watcher using npm run watch.
