less-tree-watch

Simple command-line tool for watching and compiling LESS files recursively in a directory tree

Command-line usage

Run sudo npm install less-tree-watch -g to install globally

less-tree-watch [less-options] [dir-in] [dir-out] Watches a LESS tree less-tree-compile [less-options] [dir-in] [dir-out] Compiles just once a LESS tree

Examples

less-tree-watch less css Watch ./less/ directory and output in ./css/ less-tree-watch less css --yui-compress Compile and compresses ./less/ directory and output in ./css/ less-tree-watch -x --yui-compress less css Adds options to lessc execution

Nice and simple

Node usage

Run npm install less-tree-watch to install

Require and intanciate the watcher with the desired arguments:

var LessTreeWatcher = require('less-tree-watch').LessTreeWatcher;
watcher = new LessTreeWatcher('less', 'css', [ '-x', '--yui-compress' ]);
``

Now you can run ``watcher.watchTree()`` to watch your LESS tree or ``watcher.compileTree()`` to just compile once.
