how to watch changes in whole directory/folder containing many sass files

Question

How could I trace changes in whole directory containing many sass files ? I'm using the following command to watch changes in sass

file:

sass --watch style.scss:style.css 

But how to watch changes in whole directory/folder containing many sass files.

Answer 1

Simply use the command sass --watch <input folder>:<output folder>, like this:

$ ls -l css/ sass/ $ sass --watch sass:css 

Where <input folder> contains the Sass files and <output folder> that hosts the generated CSS files.

Answer 2

Expanding the answer by piouPiouM a little:

• Output files will be created with the same names as input files except ending with .css.
• <input folder> and <output folder> can be the same.

• Both folders can be the present working directory, so the following is valid:

  $ sass --watch .:.
