says server restarting but changes are not reflected on the terminal about nodemon HOT 13 OPEN

Via stack overflow (from the author above):

Turns out i had to add C:\Windows and C:\Windows\System32 to my PATH variable. My problem is now solved!

Can you try with a different shell from power shell just to rule it out (and if it's still replicates, try directly in the terminal without vs code), again just to narrow it down

from nodemon.

• In VS Code : Command Prompt, Git bash (no changes reflected)
• Without VS Code: Command Prompt, Windows PowerShell, Git Bash (no changes reflected)

Wow. Okay, I'll dig out the windows machine to see if I can replicate and get back to you 👍

When i use node --watch index.js it starts the nodemon and now it works fine.

I did get the following warning: when i entered node --watch index.js:

But idk why the command npm run dev didn't work.

I think I'm also having a similar issue.

• nodemon -v: 3.0.3
• Terminal: Windows PowerShell (5.1.22621.2506) in Windows Terminal
• Command you ran: npm run dev
• Script : "dev": "nodemon --watch 'packages' --watch package.json -x \"npm run build\" -e \"ts\""

If I run npm run dev nodemon will watch just a single file (package.json). If I execute the nodemon command directly in the terminal it will watch 19 files, which is correct.
If I change the script command and remove the --watch package.json and execute npm run dev it will watch 34 files, but none of them will trigger a restart. It detects the changes but does not rerun the command.

If you simplify the project right down to the bare minimum are you still able to replicate?

from nodemon.

Yes, I can reproduce this in a bare project. The folder structure is:

nodemon-test
│   package.json
│
└───src
    │   index.js
    │
    └───foo
            foo.js

The contents of package.json are:

{
    "name": "nodemon-test",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "description": "",
    "main": "src/index.js",
    "scripts": {
        "dev": "nodemon --watch 'src' --watch package.json -x \"echo I restarted!\" --verbose -e \"js\""
    },
    "author": "",
    "license": "MIT"
}

The same behaviour I reported above is obsverved in this project too.

@DexterHill0 why have you used this? nodemon --watch 'src' - this tells nodemon to look for a directory called 'src' including the quotes.

If you try with nodemon --watch src --watch package.json -x \"echo I restarted!\" --verbose -e \"js\" you should find it monitoring the three files…

When I changed this locally (Windows 11 using powershell in vscode), I saved the index.js and it triggers a restart echoing out the "I restarted":

this is the same test, but with DEBUG=nodemon,nodemon* enabled:

ISSUE RESOLVED
I was able to resolve the issue with the following fix:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76014227/nodemon-wont-refresh-my-server-after-ive-made-changes-to-the-server-code

I just installed nodemon, version 3.0.3 and the issue persists. The server is stuck in 'Restarting due to changes'. Have to restart server to get changes which is obviously antithetical to the purpose of the package. I have tried to run with both Autosave turned on and off.

Interesting enough I do get a popup from Red Hat Dependency Analytics (Extension)

"The component analysis couldn't fetch data from the following providers: [snyk]"

I have tried doing a search for snyk but couldn't come up with anything. I also tried disabling the Red Hat Dependency extension and this did help either.

Downgrading to nodemon 3.0.0 did not resolve the issue
Downgrading to express 4.0.1 did not resolve issue.

Dev environment
Window 11
"express": "^4.18.2"
"nodemon": "^3.0.3"
