Question about watching

Hi @helitik

the --watch works with command that eat the YAML files (es. cat)

you can run

yamlinc --watch cat doc/src/index.yaml

in this way every-time, the file change a cat can be repeated.
is useful when you start a service and need re-restart if configuration changes

Hi @francescobianco ,

Thank you for your answer!

I've found sourcey/spectacle but this is not compatible with openapi 3.0.

I use widdershins with cli api2html and i'm watching yaml files with yamlinc:

yamlinc --watch "api2html -o doc/dist/index.html -l shell,http,php,javascript" doc/src/index.yaml

I have to write quotes otherwise the -o option of api2html is in conflict with yamlinc (yamlinc write yaml in doc/dist/index.html).

But I get an error with quotes:

Error: spawn api2html -o doc/dist/index.html -l shell,http,php,javascript ENOENT
    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:232:19)
    at onErrorNT (internal/child_process.js:407:16)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:63:19)
Emitted 'error' event at:
    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:238:12)
    at onErrorNT (internal/child_process.js:407:16)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:63:19)

I've fixed helpers.js line 66:

let wrapper = spawn(cmd, args, { shell: true });

And it works perfectly.

I also found a bug in yamlinc.js line 280:

let match = [];
for (let i in this.extensions) {
  match.push('./**/*.*');
}

I've fixed by:

let match = [];
for (let i in this.extensions) {
  match.push('./**/*.' + this.extensions[i]);
}

If you are interested, I can make a pull request.
