Theme watch not working

[chriswinch]

When running the 'theme watch' command and then making changes to a file, nothing happens.
I can 'theme upload/download' no problem but not 'theme watch'.

Im running ruby 2.2.0p0

Any idea's on what could be causing this?

[chriswinch]

I have managed to solve this by using grunt-shopify https://github.com/wilr/grunt-shopify
No idea what caused the theme gem to fail though.

You'll need to provide more information as to what isn't working. I think that you can configure the gem to run through a proxy to provide some more information.

What platform are you using? What output are you getting from theme watch when you start the application?

Are you using rbenv? If so, you might have to rbenv rehash after you installed the gem.

Without more information I am unable to help you diagnose the problem and fix it in the project.

Quick note for anyone who comes across this post - be sure that in your app settings you give the proper "read and write" permissions. The default ones will NOT work. This isn't mentioned in most of the tutorials I've read.

@Humayon, @Jabelriera, @tejashweta I opened the cli.rb file and in the line FileWatcher.new(Dir.pwd).watch() do |filename, event| I changed FileWatcher to Filewatcher and it worked perfect here.
