A Leiningen plugin that watches the project source directories, and executes a task when it detects changes to files matching a set pattern.
Add lein-auto as a plugin dependency to your project or profiles.
:plugins [[lein-auto "0.1.3"]]Add auto to the beginning of any command you want to be executed
when file changes are detected. For example:
lein auto test
This will run lein test every time it detects a change to a file.
You can stop it running with Ctrl-C.
By default only .clj, .cljs, cljx and .cljc files are watched. You can
change this by adding some extra configuration to your project file:
:auto {:default {:file-pattern #"\.(clj|cljs|cljx|cljc|edn)$"}The :default key will apply this option to all tasks, but you can
also apply options to a specific task:
:auto {"test" {:file-pattern #"\.(clj|cljs|cljx|cljc|edn)$"}There are currently four options available:
-
:paths- list of directories scanned for files. (defaults to concatenation of project:source-paths,:java-source-pathsand:test-paths). -
:file-pattern- a regular expression that determine which files to watch (defaults to#"\.(clj|cljs|cljx|cljc)$"). -
:wait-time- the time to wait in milliseconds between polling the filesystem (defaults to 50) -
:log-color- the color of the Lein-Auto log messages (defaults to:magenta). The following colors are allowed: black gray white red green yellow blue magenta cyan bright-red bright-green bright-yellow bright-blue bright-magenta bright-cyan bright-white.
