node --- > 监听文件变化(静态、动态、子进程)

静态版本:监听的文件名写死了

// watcher.js
'use strict'
const fs = require('fs');
fs.watch('target.txt', () => console.log('File changed!'));
console.log('Now watching target.txt for changes...');

• 命令行启动

node watcher.js

动态版本:在命令行输入需要监听的文件名.

• process 全局对象,获取命令行输入的文件名

// watcher-argv.js
'use strict'
const fs = require('fs');
console.log(process.argv);
const filename = process.argv[2];
if (!filename) {
    throw Error('A file to watch must be specified!');
}
fs.watch(filename, () => { console.log(`File ${filename} changed!`));
console.log(`Now watching ${filename} for changes...`);

使用子进程对变化文件进行操作

• 在开发中最常见的做法是把不同的工作放在不同的独立进程中执行
• 在监听到文件变化后,创建一个子进程,再用这个子进程执行系统命令
• child-process模块是node.js中的子进程模块

// watcher-spawn.js
'use strict';
const fs = require('fs');
const spawn = require('child_process').spawn;
const filename = process.argv[2];

if (!filename) {
    throw Error('A file to watch must be specified!');
}

fs.watch(filename, () => {
    const ls = spawn('ls', ['-l', '-h', filename]);
    ls.stdout.pipe(process.stdout);
});
console.log(`Now watching ${filename} for changes...`);
