I have a gulpfile with browser sync running and js/sass compiling. It serves my Angular SPA. It looks like this:
gulp.task('default', function(){
return runSequence(['build-css', 'build-js'], 'serve-dev');
});
gulp.task('serve-dev', function() {
browserSync.init(null, {
server: {
baseDir: './',
middleware: [
modRewrite([
'!\\.\\w+$ /index.html [L]'
])
]
}
});
gulp.watch(paths.js.dir + '/**/*.js', ['watch-js']);
gulp.watch(paths.css.dir + '/**/*.scss', ['watch-css']);
gulp.watch(paths.html.dir + '/**/*.html').on('change', browserSync.reload);
});
gulp.task('watch-css', ['build-css'], browserSync.reload);
gulp.task('watch-js', ['build-js'], browserSync.reload);
gulp.task('build-css', function() {
return gulp.src(paths.css.src)
.pipe(sourcemaps.init())
.pipe(sass().on('error', sass.logError))
.pipe(autoprefixer({
browsers: ['> 0.5%']
}))
.pipe(cleanCSS())
.pipe(rename('app.min.css'))
.pipe(sourcemaps.write('./'))
.pipe(gulp.dest(paths.css.dest));
});
gulp.task('build-js', function() {
return gulp.src(paths.js.src)
.pipe(sourcemaps.init())
.pipe(concat('app.min.js'))
.pipe(ngAnnotate())
.pipe(uglify())
.pipe(sourcemaps.write('./'))
.pipe(gulp.dest(paths.js.dest));
});
It works initially to serve the site, and when I update html files it refreshes, however when I update a SASS file it doesn't refresh. All the paths are definitely correct because the initial compiling works fine.
