watch

watch the folders.

watch(callback::Function, dir::String; targets=ARGS, sources::Union{Vector{Any},Vector{String}}=[])

Jive.stop(::typeof(watch))

~/.julia/dev/Jive/test/Example/test $ cat runtests.jl
using Jive
runtests(@__DIR__, skip=["revise.jl"])

~/.julia/dev/Jive/test/Example/test $ cat revise.jl
# julia -i -q --project=. revise.jl example

using Revise, Jive
using Example
watch(@__DIR__, sources=[pathof(Example)]) do path
    @info :changed path
    revise()
    runtests(@__DIR__, skip=["revise.jl"])
end
# Jive.stop(watch)

watching folders ...
  - ../src
  - example

when saving any files in the watching folders, it automatically run tests.

julia> ┌ Info: changed
└   path = "../src/Example.jl"
1/1 example/test1.jl
    Pass 1  (0.26 seconds)
✅  All 1 test has been completed.  (0.55 seconds)
┌ Info: changed
└   path = "example/test1.jl"
1/1 example/test1.jl
    Pass 1  (0.00 seconds)
✅  All 1 test has been completed.  (0.00 seconds)

to stop watching
