icte

if changes then execute

Simple tool to execute a command when a file(s) or a directory(ies) have a change

The idea is to enable the hot reload

Usage

icte file1 directory1/ file2 file3 -c command args

The above command will monitor

• file1
• file2
• file3
• all files inside the directory1 (recursively)

If any of those files changes it executes the command with the args

Examples:

icte /etc/nginx/nginx.conf -c service nginx reload

icte main.go -c restart.sh

Multiple commands

icte main.go -c build.sh -c restart.sh

icte main.go -c 'grep //TODO main.go -c' -c build.sh -c restart.sh
