Cannot stop server
andrey-buligin opened this issue · comments
Hi,
I am experiencing issues with proper way of closing server.
Here is my watch config
watch: {
compass: {
files: ['<%= yeoman.app %>/styles/{,/}.{scss,sass}'],
tasks: ['compass']
},
livereload: {
files: [
'<%= yeoman.app %>/*.html',
'{.tmp,<%= yeoman.app %>}/styles/{,**/}*.css',
'{.tmp,<%= yeoman.app %>}/scripts/{,*/,**/,**/**/}*.js',
'<%= yeoman.app %>/templates/{,*/,**/,**/**/}*.hbs',
'<%= yeoman.app %>/images/{,*/}*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp}',
'test/spec/{,**/}*.js'
],
options: {
livereload: 35712
}
},
express: {
files: [
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/*',
'server/*'
],
tasks: ['express:prod:stop', 'express:prod'],
options: {
spawn: false
}
}
};
Here is my grunt task for executing build, build server, opening browser and then watching for changes in dist folder.
grunt.task.run(['build', 'express:prod', 'open:prod', 'watch:express']);
I expect that every time build folder/server files are modified running server should stop and start again. I could see that during 'express:prod:stop' command inside stop Action of server.js 'server' variable is 'undefined' (line 114) so there is nothing to kill. Please suggest how to kill server/process that's already running.
Thanks
options: {
spawn: false
}
should be in the watch task and not in the express task
then it will work
Hi Paul, thanks for response. It's actually Watch->expres, it's not express, first few lines are not included in "code area", anyways I managed to solve issues after updating package to latest version mine was outdated. Thanks
