import { Smartchok } from 'smartchok';
let mySmartChok = new Smartchok(['some/path/**/*.any', '/absolute/*.js'], chokidarOptions);
mySmartChok.add(['/some/**/*.any']); // add files
mySmartChok.remove('some/**/*.js');
mySmartChok.start(); // starts the watch process
mySmartChok.getObservableFor('change').then(observableArg => {
observableArg.subscribe(x => {
// do something here when a change is detected
// possible events are 'add' | 'addDir' | 'change' | 'error' | 'unlink' | 'unlinkDir' | 'ready' | 'raw'
// note that the observable is only created once you call .start() on the Smartchok instance
// hence the promise construction
});
});
mySmartChok.stop();
