Preprocessor does not compile when I create .scss file

[adrianoresende]

I installed preprocessor node-sass and this worked perfect but does not compile another new files.
How do I fix this when create a file inside src and compile this file without restart watch-css?

seems like nodemon would be better rather than built-in watcher. Do npm install nodemon --save-dev and add this to your package.json scripts

 "watch-css": "nodemon -e scss -x \"npm run build-css\""

Quoting the User Guide:

Note that node-sass seems to have an issue recognizing newly created files on some systems so you might need to restart the watcher when you create a file until it’s resolved.

This is a known problem with node-sass and hopefully its maintainers will fix it.

@viankakrisna

Wouldn't this rebuild all files rather than just the changed one?

@gaearon yeah, it's the simplest one i can remember :p should we update the docs for a better way to do it?
