Watching multiple files / directories?
Opened this issue · 4 comments
I tried doing coyote -w input1:output1 input2:output2 expecting it to watch all the given sources, but it only seems to recognize the first pair. Is this difficult to add to coyote?
@contentfree You're right, coyote wasn't designed to watch multiple input:output pairs. It's really meant for transitive dependency management for a single input point, building a tree of your input's dependencies, and then compiling to a single output.
I took a quick look last night at what would be involved in watching multiple files. While it doesn't look to be too difficult, I recommend you try using the require syntax to pull in your multiple dependencies. Check this out for the documentation around that: http://imulus.github.io/coyote/
Let me know what would work better for you.

What I was hoping to do was have coyote watch my CSS and JS with a single
coyote watcher. As it stands, I have two terminals running two separate
watch commands. Would be great to have coyote just be able to take "watch
all of these for me" and Just Do It.

@contentfree Gotcha. That totally makes sense. Like this?:
coyote -w input.css:output.css input.js:output.js
Exactly!
