Closed andrepadez closed 8 years ago
Hmm, I don't use watchify much so I don't know off the top of my head. @davejohn, do you know?
@andrepadez I use beefy to trigger the recompiling process on updates. Beefy searches for a local instance of watchify, then browserify. Does this help?
I will have to try it, @davejohn , maybe later this week. I stopped using lessify early, and made my own solution (which is still not working perfectly), mostly because of #17 .
Same error happens to me when i use watchify via JS API (CLI is fine).
My entry.js:
'use strict'
require('./styles.less')
styles.less:
h1 {color: blue}
gulpfile.js:
'use strict'
var gulp = require('gulp')
var browserify = require('browserify')
var watchify = require('watchify')
var lessify = require('node-lessify')
var streamTo = require('vinyl-source-stream')
gulp.task('watch', function() {
var bundler = watchify(
browserify('./entry.js', watchify.args)
)
.on('update', function() {
build(bundler)
})
return build(bundler)
})
function build(bundler) {
return bundler
.transform(lessify)
.bundle()
.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(String(err))
this.emit('end')
})
.pipe(streamTo('bundle.js'))
.pipe(gulp.dest('.'))
}
error:

use case: I have a /global.less file that is being imported from several
require('./styles.less')
. If i use watchify, and change the contents of global.less, i trigger the compiling process but the css isn't updated with the changes. If i disable watchify, it all works correctly, but it takes too much time.Is there a way to deal with this? How?
Thanks
