Nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

[kgust]

My environment

Linux Mint 14
rsync 3.0.9-3ubuntu1
Ruby 1.9.3p327
guard 1.6.2
guard-rsync 0.1.1

• Added gem 'guard-rsync' to my Gemfile
• Ran bundle install

Here's the section from my Guardfile

I've tried to simplify it as much as possible.

    guard 'rsync',
        :input => '/home/kgustavson/workspace/symfony2',
        :output => '/var/www/symfony'

Results from running guard start

Nothing seems to happen. The files are not sync'd to the output folder. No error messages.

Output from the guard window:

Sorry, I originally wrote it to sync assets that weren't generated along side assets that were, so I've never used it without excludes, so I may have made specifying the excludes non optional.

[kgust]

Ok. So, I added the excludes line from your example.

guard 'rsync',
    :input => '/home/kgustavson/workspace/visitmanager2',
    :output => '/var/www/symfony',
    :excludes => {
        /(.+)\.coffee$/ => (lambda {|m| "#{m[1]}.js"})
    }

It still doesn't work—nothing happens. I'm not seeing any error messages (other than what I've already shown). What's the best way to debug Guard plugins?

[aspiers]

I'm guessing you need to include a watch directive inside the block which you aren't yet passing to guard.
