Remove reliance on watchman

Open batjko opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

In the interest of reducing annoyance of non-Mac users (especially windows ones), avoiding watchman would be a great boon for this package.

I am not sure what it should be replaced with, but ideally with something built into this package.

Many thanks!

This was already added in v3 (will be released soon).

What's the schedule for v3?

Just want to note here, that with Watchman Beta for Windows it's working just fine. I haven't run into any issues. Personally, I am against removing watchman. It's great tool conserving system resources into a single point instead of having numerous watchers over the same files. At least make it configurable so it's still possible to use Watchman.

@FredyC in v3 watchman is not removed. It will use NodeWatcher only if watchman is not present.
