# gaze [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/shama/gaze.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/shama/gaze)
A globbing fs.watch wrapper built from the best parts of other fine watch libs.
Compatible with Node.js 0.10/0.8, Windows, OSX and Linux.
![gaze](http://dontkry.com/images/repos/gaze.png)
## Usage
Install the module with: `npm install gaze` or place into your `package.json`
and run `npm install`.
```javascript
var gaze = require('gaze');
// Watch all .js files/dirs in process.cwd()
gaze('**/*.js', function(err, watcher) {
// Files have all started watching
// watcher === this
// Get all watched files
console.log(this.watched());
// On file changed
this.on('changed', function(filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was changed');
});
// On file added
this.on('added', function(filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was added');
});
// On file deleted
this.on('deleted', function(filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was deleted');
});
// On changed/added/deleted
this.on('all', function(event, filepath) {
console.log(filepath + ' was ' + event);
});
// Get watched files with relative paths
console.log(this.relative());
});
// Also accepts an array of patterns
gaze(['stylesheets/*.css', 'images/**/*.png'], function() {
// Add more patterns later to be watched
this.add(['js/*.js']);
});
```
### Alternate Interface
```javascript
var Gaze = require('gaze').Gaze;
var gaze = new Gaze('**/*');
// Files have all started watching
gaze.on('ready', function(watcher) { });
// A file has been added/changed/deleted has occurred
gaze.on('all', function(event, filepath) { });
```
### Errors
```javascript
gaze('**/*', function() {
this.on('error', function(err) {
// Handle error here
});
});
```
### Minimatch / Glob
See [isaacs's minimatch](https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch) for more
information on glob patterns.
## Documentation
### gaze(patterns, [options], callback)
* `patterns` {String|Array} File patterns to be matched
* `options` {Object}
* `callback` {Function}
* `err` {Error | null}
* `watcher` {Object} Instance of the Gaze watcher
### Class: gaze.Gaze
Create a Gaze object by instanting the `gaze.Gaze` class.
```javascript
var Gaze = require('gaze').Gaze;
var gaze = new Gaze(pattern, options, callback);
```
#### Properties
* `options` The options object passed in.
* `interval` {integer} Interval to pass to fs.watchFile
* `debounceDelay` {integer} Delay for events called in succession for the same
file/event
#### Events
* `ready(watcher)` When files have been globbed and watching has begun.
* `all(event, filepath)` When an `added`, `changed` or `deleted` event occurs.
* `added(filepath)` When a file has been added to a watch directory.
* `changed(filepath)` When a file has been changed.
* `deleted(filepath)` When a file has been deleted.
* `renamed(newPath, oldPath)` When a file has been renamed.
* `end()` When the watcher is closed and watches have been removed.
* `error(err)` When an error occurs.
* `nomatch` When no files have been matched.
#### Methods
* `emit(event, [...])` Wrapper for the EventEmitter.emit.
`added`|`changed`|`deleted` events will also trigger the `all` event.
* `close()` Unwatch all files and reset the watch instance.
* `add(patterns, callback)` Adds file(s) patterns to be watched.
* `remove(filepath)` removes a file or directory from being watched. Does not
recurse directories.
* `watched()` Returns the currently watched files.
* `relative([dir, unixify])` Returns the currently watched files with relative paths.
* `dir` {string} Only return relative files for this directory.
* `unixify` {boolean} Return paths with `/` instead of `\\` if on Windows.
## FAQs
### Why Another `fs.watch` Wrapper?
I liked parts of other `fs.watch` wrappers but none had all the features I
needed. This lib combines the features I needed from other fine watch libs:
Speedy data behavior from
[paulmillr's chokidar](https://github.com/paulmillr/chokidar), API interface
from [mikeal's watch](https://github.com/mikeal/watch) and file globbing using
[isaacs's glob](https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob) which is also used by
[cowboy's Grunt](https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt).
### How do I fix the error `EMFILE: Too many opened files.`?
This is because of your system's max opened file limit. For OSX the default is
very low (256). Increase your limit temporarily with `ulimit -n 10480`, the
number being the new max limit.
