watch is "watching" wrong files

[theKashey]

Expected Behavior

watch more works

Current Behavior

Running a command

$ tsm "packages/**/*.scss" --ignore node_modules --exportType default -n none -w

generates the following output

Watching files...
[ADDED] packages/uikit/styles/_index.scss
[ADDED] packages/uikit/styles/mixin.scss
[ADDED] packages/uikit/styles/theme.scss
[NO GENERATED TYPES] packages/uikit/styles/_index.scss
[NO GENERATED TYPES] packages/uikit/styles/mixin.scss
[NO GENERATED TYPES] packages/uikit/styles/theme.scss
[ADDED] packages/uikit/styles/node_modules/.bin/acorn

^^^ note the wrong file added

After that, the process is doomed

--ignoreInitial is solving the problem.
Sounds like this is more chokidar API problem, which might "see" more files than it should.
However simple re-glob-ing file in change/add callback might save the day.

Yea, this seems like an issue with chokadir 🤔

I wonder if it's related to these issues relating to symlinks: paulmillr/chokidar#544 & paulmillr/chokidar#967

I actually didn't realize the node module .bin files are symlinks, but makes sense.

I think a stop-gap solution like you said by doing a re-check against the glob could solve the immediate issue, although unfortunate.

Closing this issue since it's stale and an issue with a dependency, not this package.

However, if this is still an issue (chokadir was updated) I wonder if using the ignore option could help? https://github.com/skovy/typed-scss-modules#--ignore

I haven't tried, but maybe something like --ignopre 'node_modules/.bin/*'?
