Support external source watchers #57

Closed robinhouston closed 4 years ago

robinhouston commented 5 years ago

One might want to use an external watcher such as parcel that can rebuild the template faster in response to changes than doing a full build from scratch.

Currently the SDK doesn’t support this. The usual workaround is to have no build rules in template.yml, and to run the SDK using a script that also kicks off the watcher. This works, but means that different templates have different conventions for how to run them in the SDK with automatic rebuild on source change.

It would be better if it were possible to configure an external watcher to run when you flourish run the template.

This was resolved in SDK release 3.14.0.
