The best thing to do now is to raise some awareness on https://github.com/synrc/fs/issues/24 and wait. If there's no response we should consider pushing a package from our fork.
I started playing with writing a fairly simple wrapper for the fswatch
library. If it works, setup would be easier as fswatch
is a pure C implementation which works on Mac, *nix, Microsoft.
@davejlong Can you confirm that fs@2.12 works on the mac?
We have a confirmation that 2.12.0 fixes the issue. See: https://github.com/kittoframework/kitto/issues/65#issuecomment-268254803
Merging this. Thanks @davejlong for the fantastic work on finding the root cause of this issue and doing whatever needed to resolve it. :clap: :clap:
@davejlong I've seen fswatch and it seems like a really promising attempt to make fs notifications cross-platform. What bothers me it's lack of packaging for Linux (see: https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch#installation). No deb packages yet :-/
Also there's a change that fswatch will be supported through fs, see: https://github.com/synrc/fs/issues/17
Fixes #65. An unreleased version of
fs
forces therebar3
manager to compile the dependency. See https://github.com/synrc/fs/issues/33
