nodemon 1.10.1 does not restart when source code file changes

[xiedwill]

I install the latest nodemon (1.10.1) on Ubuntu 16.04, with node v6.4.0

npm install -g nodemon

then I run

nodemon server.js

and changes server.js, the server would not restart automatically. However, when I install an earlier version, and do the same thing, the server will restart correctly.

npm install -g nodemon@1.10.0

Looks like a bug with the new update. I reverted back to 1.10.0 for the time being!

[geooogle]

Same here

@xiedwill @EngineeredTruth what OS are you running on? So I can check on my side to debug?

[xiedwill]

@remy Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS

👍

Downgraded to 1.10.0, issue goes away.

Mac OSX 10.11.5
Node.js 6.4.0
NPM 3.10.3

Anyone using Docker here? Or is this directly on the command line?

[seamoss]

Command line, here.

[xiedwill]

Command Line directly.

On Mac OSX had the same problem with 1.10.1 (the revert/rollback isn't active yet, or npm still has 1.10.1 cached for now).

Also crashed on restarting manually from the command line

=> nodemon
[nodemon] 1.10.1
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching: *.*
[nodemon] starting `node ./bin/www`

@fdoxyz

npm rm nodemon -g
npm i nodemon@1.10.0 -g

@seamoss yep, sorry didn't notice your comment while typing mine :)

I posted a moment ago, but deleted the comment. It's happening on node@4 too.

I'm replicating with the rs command. I need to check what's going on with nodemon not restarting when the source changes.

Had the same issue; reverted and fixed. Change file would not restart, and when I tried rs command manually, stdin would be null, and the restart would fail.
