watch-loop

recursively watch a directory.

Install

npm install watch-loop

Usage

loop(dirname | filename, options, fn)

• dirname | filename: can be a directory or a file name

• options (optional): the same as options in http://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_watch_filename_options_listener

• callback function: with a event object as a argument. So you can listen to change and rename method with a callback function easily.

Sample

 
loop('./', function(ev) {
    ev.on('change', function(filename) {
        console.log('changing ' + filename);
    })
 
    ev.on('rename', function(filename) {
        console.log('rename a file')
    })
})
