🚩 for Node versions since v12.12, there is an easier and better solution. I recently got this working in my express app. Steps as follows: Install the required library: npm install –save-dev source-map-support In your entry point (eg app.ts): require(‘source-map-support’).install(); In your app.ts, you may also require better logging for errors within promises: process.on(‘unhandledRejection’, console.log); … Read more
While there are probably ways to do this within the python ecosystem such as watchdog/watchmedo ( https://github.com/gorakhargosh/watchdog ), and maybe even linux scripting options with inotifywait ( https://linux.die.net/man/1/inotifywait ), for me, the easiest solution by far was… to just use nodemon! What I didn’t know is that although the github tagline of nodemon is “Monitor … Read more
It looks like the workaround with –exec isn’t necessary anymore, at least when using the newest version of nodemon and Webstorm 7 or 8. All you have to do is specify your path to nodemon by obtaining its path with running which nodemon in your console (e.g. /usr/local/bin/nodemon) under “Node parameters”: @Bela Clark, thanks for … Read more

To start developing you simply run npm run dev which starts nodemon and makes it watch .ts files (using the … Read more
I’d recommend using RemoteSigned as opposed to Unrestricted, and limiting the policy to the CurrentUser if possible. Run Powershell as Admin, and then: Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned: “The default execution policy for Windows server computers.” Other than that, I wouldn’t worry about it too much, as it’s not intended to be a security mechanism. … Read more
This will be a simple command for this nodemon –exec npm start
In order to make NodeMon ignore a bunch of files from monitoring, you can start it as nodemon –ignore PATTERN [–ignore PATTERN2] where PATTERN is the name of a specific file, directory, or wildcard pattern. Make sure that if you use a wildcard, it is escaped. For example nodemon –ignore ‘lib/*.js’ –ignore README Alternatively, if … Read more
I tried the following, and none worked: npm uninstall nodemon sudo npm uninstall -g nodemon What did work was: sudo npm install -g –force nodemon
You need to install it globally npm install -g nodemon # or if using yarn yarn global add nodemon And then it will be available on the path (I see now that you have tried this and it didn’t work, your path may be messed up) If you want to use the locally installed version, … Read more
