nodemon passing -L to node

[immensenet]

I'm trying to get nodemon to detect changes inside a docker container (Mac OSX Yosemite with Docker-machine) with mounted volume

My index.js file:

root@4140f1d30a5d:/src/app# cat app.js
root@4140f1d30a5d:/src/app# cat index.js
var app = require('http').createServer(handler)
var fs = require('fs');

app.listen(process.env.PORT || 4000);
console.log("Listening on: "+ (process.env.PORT || 4000));

function handler (req, res) {
  fs.readFile(__dirname + '/index.html',
  function (err, data) {
    if (err) {
      res.writeHead(500);
      return res.end('Error loading index.html');
    }

    res.writeHead(200);
    res.end(data);
  });
}

Starting nodemon:

root@4140f1d30a5d:/src/app# nodemon -V index.js
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] v1.5.1
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] reading config /src/app/nodemon.json
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] ignoring: .git /src/app/node_modules/**/* bower_components .sass-cache
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] watching: *.*
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] watching extensions: js,json,hjs
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] starting `node index.js`
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] child pid: 237
18 Sep 23:53:06 - [nodemon] watching 6 files
Listening on: 4000

Now I change the error message in index.js

return res.end('Error loading root');

And nodemon did not restart. So I was trying to use the -L argument

root@4140f1d30a5d:/src/app# nodemon -L -V index.js
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] v1.5.1
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] reading config /src/app/nodemon.json
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] ignoring: .git /src/app/node_modules/**/* bower_components .sass-cache
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] watching: *.*
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] watching extensions: js,json,hjs
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] starting `node -L index.js`
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] child pid: 265
node: bad option: -L
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...
18 Sep 23:56:04 - [nodemon] watching 6 files

Which started node as node -L index.js.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

-L was dropped, but will be reintroduced (to force polling) in #633.

I'm working on it right now :)
