@davidhs/copy-and-watch v0.1.7

copy-and-watch

Synchronize files and folders locally by glob patterns, watch option included.

Install

npm i -D @davidhs/copy-and-watch

Usage

copy-and-watch [options] <sources> <target>

options:
  --watch - enable file watcher
  --clean - clean target folder on start

Please note that you need quote your globs. Without quote marks the glob will be expanded by the shell instead of copy-and-watch which can create unexpected behavior.

In your package.json

You may have some build script in your package.json involving mirroring folders (let's say, static assets), that's a good use-case for copy-and-watch:

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "copy-and-watch": "latest"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "build": "copy-and-watch \"src/**/*.{html,json}\" \"src/**/fonts/*\" dist",
    "watch": "copy-and-watch --watch \"src/**/*.{html,json}\" \"src/**/{fonts,images}/*\" dist"
  }
}
