watches files inside ./node_modules

[andykais]

starting the angular2 quickstart server npm run lite-server watches for changes in node_modules causing it to reload over and over again. Adding a my-bs-config.json with this inside

{
  "files": [
    "./app/**/*.{html,htm,css,js}",
    "./*.{html,css}"
  ]
}

appears to stop it from constantly reloading itself but it still is watching files withing node_modules

A workaround, until #57 is published, is to add the following to your bs_config.json file:

{
    "watchOptions": {
        "ignored": "node_modules"
    }
}
