Is there a way to watch my .sss files and re-run this if they change?
"css": "postcss -u autoprefixer -u postcss-easy-import -p sugarss src/index.sss -o src/index.css"
I can't find a way, I've looked on the net all over. I don't see any kind of watch available from postcss. There's a -w or --watch with the postcss-cli but I tried adding that to the end of the script above. Unless I'm just doing it wrong, my css script does not re-run itself if my .sss files change.
maybe there's some generic node watcher lib I can use?
nodemon is a very powerful tool to re-run your scripts based on any change in your files , default file extension for nodemon
to watch is .js
and default script to run from your package.json
file is start
script.
You can overwrite watched extension using -e
option , then extensions separated by ,
for example -e sss
in your case.
Also you can overwrite the script you want to run using --exec
option and then pass the script you want to run , in your case it will be --exec "npm run css"
And put all together nodemon -e sss --exec "npm run css"
, this will watch changes in sss
files and run css
script
