Changes Not Updating in Development Mode

[uipoet]

In development mode, without restarting Derby, changes made to any .js or .html file do not display in the browser. Changes to .styl files seem to work as expected.

I have in my .bash_profile: export NODE_ENV=development and Starting cluster with 1 workers in development mode in my console after starting Derby.

I am using the latest Derby: 0.1.10 on port 8080 and browsing with latest production Chrome.

Interesting. Are you seeing anything logged to your console when you save a .html or .js file? When you save a .html file, a big packet should be written out with all the new templates in it. When you save a .js file, the server should automatically restart.

What OS and version of Node are you running?

Nothing is being logged to my console after saving a .html or .js file. Something else: Without defining NODE_ENV=development in my .bash_profile, Derby outputs: Starting cluster with 1 workers in undefined mode. I expected it to default to development.

Mac OS X 10.7.3 and Node.js 0.6.14.

Are you using the default directory structure? The watch code only looks in the root directory of your project.

On line 128 of derby/lib/files.js, try logging the value of dir and type. Do you see the root directory of your project being logged as dir?

Ok, then this is caused on my end. I am religiously opposed to abbreviations and renamed every instance of app to application. I'm ok closing this issue as user error, though would prefer to have the watch code be configurable somehow.

I still had issues until 0.3.0. I'm happy to report all works now as expected.

Sweet! Glad it got fixed.
