kandi X-RAY | lesswatcher Summary
lesswatcher is a JavaScript library. lesswatcher has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can install using 'npm i lesswatcher' or download it from GitHub, npm.
There are other npm modules that do lessc with directory watching, but at the time I wrote Lesswatcher, none of them seemed to support both Windows AND the distinction between .less files to watch for changes, versus .less files to compile directly to corresponding .css. So using such tools results in compiling every watched .less file into .css, even for .less files used only in an @import to another .less file. Generating such unused .css artifacts bothered me, enough to motivate writing a new tool.

// Source nvm.sh to enable it: // Tip: I put this line in my .zshrc profile so it's loaded automatically . ~/.nvm/nvm.sh. // Install node versions (anything above latest 0.8 is optional): nvm install 0.8 nvm install 0.10.
Get node and npm (The official installer from nodejs.org/download/ is recommended for Windows users.)
Edit your $PATH env var: Add the npm global bin directory to your $PATH (Its location depends on your system, on OSX it might be e.g. /usr/local/share/npm/bin.) (NOTE on Windows 7, try "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm", without "bin".)
Add a new $NODE_PATH env var: Add the npm global node_modules directory to $NODE_PATH (Its location depends on your system, on OSX it might be e.g. /usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules.) (NOTE on Windows 7, try "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules" , without "lib")
(Optional but recommended) install nvm to run multiple versions: // Get NVM: git clone git://github.com/creationix/nvm.git ~/.nvm
