watch-detector

Utility for selecting the best options for sane:

watcher options:

• watchman: if a valid version of watchman is installed, we will prefer this.
• node: use node's built in watcher, if watchman is not present.

future options:

• fs-events: #6

usage

yarn add watch-detector

const WatchDetector = require('watch-detector');
const sane = require('sane');

let detector = new WatchDetector();
let saneOptions = {
  /* sane options */
};

let options = detector.findBestWatcherOption(saneOptions)
/* options's watcher selection will be based on various heuristics */
sane(root, options);

optional

new WatchDetector({
  ui: /* console-ui instance */,
  fs: /* fs instance */
});
