Multiple directories to watch and sync

[skbhardwaj]

Hello,

Could you please suggest if its possible:

• to support multiple directories to watch & sync with aem
• support multiple destinations(4502/4503) for sync

Also, can I use this in my gulp task?

Thanks,

Yes, both are possible:

aemfed -t "http://admin:admin@localhost:4502,http://admin:admin@localhost:4503" \
-w "ui.apps/src/main/content/jcr_root/,ui.content/src/main/content/jcr_root/"

The statement above will listen for file changes in both:

• ui.apps/src/main/content/jcr_root/
• ui.content/src/main/content/jcr_root/

And sync all those changes to:

• http://admin:admin@localhost:4502
• http://admin:admin@localhost:4503

At the moment it is not really a gulp task, but as a work around you can have gulp output the files to one of the watched folders and aemfed should pickup the changes, upload them and refresh what has been changed.

Please let me know if this works for you 👍

Yes, thank you.

Hello @abmaonline,

Hope you're doing great.

For one of my other projects (which has multiple packages), i've used it like:
"aemfed1": "aemfed -t 'http://admin:admin@localhost:4502,http://admin:admin@localhost:4503' -w **/**/src/main/jcr_root/"

Interestingly its just picking up(& watching) the first matched directory, and not all matching folders.

Our current directory structure contains multiple packages, something like this:

• root_folder
  • /cms-module1/cms-module1-package/src/jcr_root/
  • /cms-module2/cms-module2-package/src/jcr_root/
  • /cms-module3/cms-module3-package/src/jcr_root/
    ..
    ..
• package.json

Could you please once again help me out to watch all matching folders?

Thanks,
