  ### Getting the [polling fallback message](#options)?
219
257
 
220
- Please visit the [installation section of the Listen WIKI](https://github.com/guard/listen/wiki#installation) for more information and options for potential fixes.
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
- ### Issues and troubleshooting
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
+ #### More info
332
+ Man page for [inotify(7)](https://linux.die.net/man/7/inotify).
333
+ Blog post: [limit of inotify](https://blog.sorah.jp/2012/01/24/inotify-limitation).
334
+
335
+ ### 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
- *NOTE: without providing the output after setting the `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=1` environment variable, it can be almost impossible to guess why listen is not working as expected.*
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
- See [TROUBLESHOOTING](https://github.com/guard/listen/wiki/Troubleshooting)
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).

  ## Performance
229
372
 
230
- 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).

232
375
  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)
236
- * running Listen with the `:latency` and `:wait_for_delay` options not too small or too big (depends on needs)
379
+ * running `listen` with the `:latency` and `:wait_for_delay` options not too small or too big (depends on needs)
237
380
  * not watching directories with log files, database files or other frequently changing files
238
- * not using a version of Listen prior to 2.7.7
239
- * not getting silent crashes within Listen (see LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=2)
240
- * not running multiple instances of Listen in the background
381
+ * not using a version of `listen` prior to 2.7.7
382
+ * not getting silent crashes within `listen` (see `LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=debug`)
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
245
388
 
246
- When in doubt, LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=2 can help discover the actual events and time they happened.

391
+ ## 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.
419
+
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
