Using the nodemon Command
Watch files and automatically restart a node application when changes are detected. More information: <https://github.com/remy/nodemon/tree/main/doc/cli>.
- 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 *[-i|--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 *[-x|--exec]* "*command_to_run_script* *options*" *path/to/script*
- Run a Python script:
nodemon *[-x|--exec]* "python *options*" *path/to/file.py*
