TL;DR

nodemon

Watch files and automatically restart a node application when changes are detected. More information: https://nodemon.io.

  • Execute the specified file and watch a specific file for changes:

nodemon path/to/file.js

  • Manually restart nodemon (note nodemon must already be active for this to work):

rs

  • Ignore specific files:

nodemon --ignore path/to/file_or_directory

  • Pass arguments to the node application:

nodemon path/to/file.js arguments

  • Pass arguments to node itself if they’re not nodemon arguments already (e.g. --inspect):

nodemon arguments path/to/file.js

  • Run an arbitrary non-node script:

nodemon --exec "command_to_run_script options" path/to/script

  • Run a Python script:

nodemon --exec "python options" path/to/file.py
