v0.0.1 rincewind watch template reload
rincewind-watch
Watch rincewind views and trigger callbacks on change.
API
var watch = require('rincewind-watch')
watch(viewPaths, [opts], cb)
Pass in a single path string, an array of viewPaths or an object with named paths (e.g `{view: __dirname + '/view.html'}).
If opts.watch is false, don't watch for changes, only trigger callback once.
Returns a function which when called, stops watching and cleans up.
Example
Automatically compile views to javascript when they are changed
var watch = require('rincewind-watch')
var fs = require('fs')
var viewRoot = __dirname + '/views'
watch({view: viewRoot + '/view.html'}, function(views){
fs.writeFile(viewRoot + '/index.js', getModule(views, viewRoot))
})
function getModule(views, relativeTo){
var results = Object.keys(views).map(function(key){
return key + ': View(' + views[key].stringify(relativeTo) + ')'
})
return 'var View = require("rincewind"); module.exports = {' + results.join(', ') + '}'
}
