The simplest way to install `listen` is to use [Bundler](http://bundler.io).
|
37
|
+
|
38
|
+
```ruby
|
39
|
+
gem 'listen'
|
40
|
+
```
|
41
41
|
|
42
|
+
## Complete Example
|
43
|
+
Here is a complete example of using the `listen` gem:
|
42
44
|
```ruby
|
43
|
-
|
45
|
+
require 'listen'
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
listener = Listen.to('/srv/app') do |modified, added, removed|
|
48
|
+
puts(modified: modified, added: added, removed: removed)
|
49
|
+
end
|
50
|
+
listener.start
|
51
|
+
sleep
|
52
|
+
```
|
53
|
+
Running the above in the background, you can see the callback block being called in response to each command:
|
54
|
+
```
|
55
|
+
$ cd /srv/app
|
56
|
+
$ touch a.txt
|
57
|
+
{:modified=>[], :added=>["/srv/app/a.txt"], :removed=>[]}
|

|
+

|

## Changes Callback
|
94
|
+
|
95
|
+
Changes to the listened-to directories are reported by the listener thread in a callback.
|
96
|
+
The callback receives **three** array parameters: `modified`, `added` and `removed`, in that order.
|
97
|
+
Each of these three is always an array with 0 or more entries.
|
98
|
+
Each array entry is an absolute path.

|
173
|
-
|

+
`Listen` logs its activity to `Listen.logger`.
|

|
+
This is the primary method of debugging.

187
|
|
175
|
-
|

+
### Custom Logger
|
189
|
+
You can call `Listen.logger =` to set a custom `listen` logger for the process. For example:
|
190
|
+
```
|
191
|
+
Listen.logger = Rails.logger
|
192
|
+
```
|
176
193
|
|
194
|
+
### Default Logger
|
195
|
+
If no custom logger is set, a default `listen` logger which logs to to `STDERR` will be created and assigned to `Listen.logger`.
|
177
196
|
|
178
|
-
|
197
|
+
The default logger defaults to the `error` logging level (severity).
|
198
|
+
You can override the logging level by setting the environment variable `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=<level>`.
|
199
|
+
For `<level>`, all standard `::Logger` levels are supported, with any mix of upper-/lower-case:

```

### Getting the [polling fallback message](#options)?
|
219
257
|
|
220
|
-
|
258
|
+
If you see:
|
259
|
+
```
|
260
|
+
Listen will be polling for changes.
|
261
|
+
```
|
262
|
+
|
263
|
+
This means the Listen gem can’t find an optimized adapter. Typically this is caused by:
|
264
|
+
|
265
|
+
- You’re on Windows and WDM gem isn’t installed.
|
266
|
+
- You’re running the app without Bundler or RubyGems.
|
267
|
+
- Using Sass which includes an ancient (the “dinosaur” type of ancient) version of the Listen gem.
|
268
|
+
|
269
|
+
Possible solutions:
|
270
|
+
|
271
|
+
1. Suppress the message by using the :force_polling option. Or, you could just ignore the message since it’s harmless.
|
272
|
+
2. Windows users: Install the WDM gem.
|
273
|
+
3. Upgrade Ruby (use RubyInstaller for Windows or RVM/rbenv for Mac) and RubyGems.
|
274
|
+
3. Run your apps using Bundler.
|
275
|
+
4. Sass users: Install the latest version of Listen and try again.
|
276
|
+
|
277
|
+
#### Simplified Bundler and Sass example
|
278
|
+
Create a Gemfile with these lines:
|
279
|
+
```
|
280
|
+
source 'https://rubygems.org'
|
281
|
+
gem 'listen'
|
282
|
+
gem 'sass'
|
283
|
+
```
|
284
|
+
Next, use Bundler to update gems:
|
285
|
+
```
|
286
|
+
$ bundle update
|
287
|
+
$ bundle exec sass --watch # ... or whatever app is using Listen.
|
288
|
+
```
|
289
|
+
|
290
|
+
### Increasing the amount of inotify watchers
|
291
|
+
|
292
|
+
If you are running Debian, RedHat, or another similar Linux distribution, run the following in a terminal:
|
293
|
+
```
|
294
|
+
$ sudo sh -c "echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 >> /etc/sysctl.conf"
|
295
|
+
$ sudo sysctl -p
|
296
|
+
```
|
297
|
+
If you are running ArchLinux, search the `/etc/sysctl.d/` directory for config files with the setting:
|
298
|
+
```
|
299
|
+
$ grep -H -s "fs.inotify.max_user_watches" /etc/sysctl.d/*
|
300
|
+
/etc/sysctl.d/40-max_user_watches.conf:fs.inotify.max_user_watches=100000
|
301
|
+
```
|
302
|
+
Then change the setting in the file you found above to a higher value (see [here](https://www.archlinux.org/news/deprecation-of-etcsysctlconf/) for why):
|
303
|
+
```
|
304
|
+
$ sudo sh -c "echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 > /etc/sysctl.d/40-max-user-watches.conf"
|
305
|
+
$ sudo sysctl --system
|
306
|
+
```
|
307
|
+
|
308
|
+
#### The technical details
|
309
|
+
Listen uses `inotify` by default on Linux to monitor directories for changes.
|
310
|
+
It's not uncommon to encounter a system limit on the number of files you can monitor.
|
311
|
+
For example, Ubuntu Lucid's (64bit) `inotify` limit is set to 8192.
|
312
|
+
|
313
|
+
You can get your current inotify file watch limit by executing:
|
314
|
+
```
|
315
|
+
$ cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches
|
316
|
+
```
|
317
|
+
When this limit is not enough to monitor all files inside a directory, the limit must be increased for Listen to work properly.
|
221
318
|
|
222
|
-
|
319
|
+
You can set a new limit temporarily with:
|
320
|
+
```
|
321
|
+
$ sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
|
322
|
+
$ sudo sysctl -p
|
323
|
+
```
|
324
|
+
If you like to make your limit permanent, use:
|
325
|
+
```
|
326
|
+
$ sudo sh -c "echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 >> /etc/sysctl.conf"
|
327
|
+
$ sudo sysctl -p
|
328
|
+
```
|
329
|
+
You may also need to pay attention to the values of `max_queued_events` and `max_user_instances` if Listen keeps on complaining.
|
330
|
+
|
331
|
+

|
+
### Issues and Troubleshooting
|
336
|
+
|
337
|
+
If the gem doesn't work as expected, start by setting `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=debug` or `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=info` as described above in [Logging and Debugging](#logging-and-debugging).
|
338
|
+
|
339
|
+
*NOTE: without providing the output after setting the `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=debug` environment variable, it is usually impossible to guess why `listen` is not working as expected.*
|
340
|
+
|
341
|
+
#### 3 steps before you start diagnosing problems
|
342
|
+
These 3 steps will:
|
343
|
+
|
344
|
+
- help quickly troubleshoot obscure problems (trust me, most of them are obscure)
|
345
|
+
- help quickly identify the area of the problem (a full list is below)
|
346
|
+
- help you get familiar with listen's diagnostic mode (it really comes in handy, trust me)
|
347
|
+
- help you create relevant output before you submit an issue (so we can respond with answers instead of tons of questions)
|
348
|
+
|
349
|
+
Step 1 - The most important option in Listen
|
350
|
+
For effective troubleshooting set the `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=info` variable before starting `listen`.
|
223
351
|
|
224
|
-
|
352
|
+
Step 2 - Verify polling works
|
353
|
+
Polling has to work ... or something is really wrong (and we need to know that before anything else).
|
225
354
|
|
226
|
-
|
355
|
+
(see force_polling option).
|
356
|
+
|
357
|
+
After starting `listen`, you should see something like:
|
358
|
+
```
|
359
|
+
INFO -- : Record.build(): 0.06773114204406738 seconds
|
360
|
+
```
|
361
|
+
Step 3 - Trigger some changes directly without using editors or apps
|
362
|
+
Make changes e.g. touch foo or echo "a" >> foo (for troubleshooting, avoid using an editor which could generate too many misleading events).
|
363
|
+
|
364
|
+
You should see something like:
|
365
|
+
```
|
366
|
+
INFO -- : listen: raw changes: [[:added, "/home/me/foo"]]
|
367
|
+
INFO -- : listen: final changes: {:modified=>[], :added=>["/home/me/foo"], :removed=>[]}
|
368
|
+
```
|
369
|
+
"raw changes" contains changes collected during the :wait_for_delay and :latency intervals, while "final changes" is what listen decided are relevant changes (for better editor support).
|
227
370
|
|
228
371
|
## Performance

If
|
373
|

If `listen` seems slow or unresponsive, make sure you're not using the Polling adapter (you should see a warning upon startup if you are).
|
231
374
|
|

|
Also, if the directories you're watching contain many files, make sure you're:
|
233
376
|
|
234
377
|
* not using Polling (ideally)
|
235
378
|
* using `:ignore` and `:only` options to avoid tracking directories you don't care about (important with Polling and on MacOS)

* running `listen` with the `:latency` and `:wait_for_delay` options not too small or too big (depends on needs)

|
383
|
+
* not running multiple instances of `listen` in the background
|
241
384
|
* using a file system with atime modification disabled (ideally)
|
242
385
|
* not using a filesystem with inaccurate file modification times (ideally), e.g. HFS, VFAT
|
243
386
|
* not buffering to a slow terminal (e.g. transparency + fancy font + slow gfx card + lots of output)
|
244
387
|
* ideally not running a slow encryption stack, e.g. btrfs + ecryptfs

## Tips and Techniques
|
392
|
+
- Watch only directories you're interested in.
|
393
|
+
- Set your editor to save quickly (e.g. without backup files, without atomic-save)
|
394
|
+
- Tweak the `:latency` and `:wait_for_delay` options until you get good results (see [options](#options)).
|
395
|
+
- Add `:ignore` rules to silence all events you don't care about (reduces a lot of noise, especially if you use it on directories)

## Releasing
|
414
|
+
|
415
|
+
### Prerequisites
|
416
|
+
|
417
|
+
* You must have commit rights to the GitHub repository.
|
418
|
+
* You must have push rights for rubygems.org.

|
+
|
420
|
+
### How to release
|
421
|
+
|
422
|
+
1. Run `bundle install` to make sure that you have all the gems necessary for testing and releasing.
|
423
|
+
2. **Ensure all tests are passing by running `bundle exec rake`.**
|
424
|
+
3. Determine which would be the correct next version number according to [semver](http://semver.org/).
|
425
|
+
4. Update the version in `./lib/listen/version.rb`.
|
426
|
+
5. Update the version in the Install section of `./README.md` (`gem 'listen', '~> X.Y'`).
|
427
|
+
6. Commit the version in a single commit, the message should be "Preparing vX.Y.Z"
|
428
|
+
7. Run `bundle exec rake release:full`; this will tag, push to GitHub, and publish to rubygems.org.
|
429
|
+
8. Update and publish the release notes on the [GitHub releases page](https://github.com/guard/listen/releases) if necessary
