Debounce is per-file, not global

Open dobesv opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Problem

When running a build, the app restarts over and over even though we set a debounce value of 10 seconds

Suspected cause

Looking at the code, it looks like the debounce option is applied at a per-file level, so if multiple files are modified within the debounce period, they do not reset the debounce timer and the app will restart 10 seconds after the first file change even if more files are still being changed.

Probable solution

The library should set up its own internal debounce that applies globally to the whole run, not with a separate debounce per file.
