watch task always stopping: No possibility to make it retry after some seconds?

[Blackbam]

This is especially a problem because it happens when I am typing in the IDE. The issue was also asked on SO but no answers till now: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57992153/grunt-watch-always-stops-watching-after-fatal-errors-how-to-make-it-retry-af

Within some project I use Grunt for tasks like SASS compilation and so on. Basically it works like a charm, but as long as I am typing within the SASS files obviously sometimes an error occurs as I am not finished.

The watch task of my Gruntfile is like this:

// watch files
watch: {
    sass: {
        files: ['web/var/static/**/*.scss','web/var/static/lib/**','web/var/static/js/*.js'],
        tasks: ['default']
    }
},

I start it with grunt watch in the cli.

Sample error in Grunt log:

Done.

I always have to re-run the task if this happens because grunt stops watching. That means:

• open the console window
• stop the current task
• start the task again
• change a file

This is really slowing down.

Has anybody had a similar problem? How to make grunt retry automatically after an error as soon as a new file changes happens?
