CLI
Check dependencies in package.json, run command npm run build:libs
if changes found.
Snapshot will be stored in .libs.dat
.
is-changed --dependencies -t .libs.dat -u "npm run build:libs"
Check file src/style.scss
time modification, execute npm run build:style
if time is different from latest saved snapshot to .style.dat
.
is-changed -f src/style.scss -t .style.dat -u "npm run build:style"
API
changed.file({ targetFile: string, databaseFile?: string }): Result
type Result = {
result: boolean; // is file modified
update: () => void; // update filemtime
};
changed.dependenciesdependencies({ databaseFile?: string, cwd?: string }): Result
type Result = {
result: boolean; // has changed
update: () => void; // update filemtime
initial: boolean; // indicates first run
diff: Dict | null; // result difference
};
type Dict = { [name: string]: { $set: any, $was: any } };
EXAMPLES
const changed = require('is-changed');
const Path = require('path');
const buildPath = 'dist';
Example 1: File changed
const styleChanged = changed.file(`src/style.scss`, Path.resolve(buildPath, '.style.dat'));
// do something useful with src/style.scss...
styleChanged.update();
Example 2: Track dependencies
const libsChanged = changed.dependencies(Path.resolve(buildPath, '.libs.dat'));
// do something...
styleChanged.update();
