I have the following setup:
// watch for changes
gulp.task('watch', function () {
gulp.watch('./assets/**/*.less', ['compile-less']);
});
gulp.task("compile-less", () => {
return gulp.src('./assets/build-packages/*.less')
.pipe($.less({
paths: [ $.path.join(__dirname, 'less', 'includes') ]
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest(OutputPath)); // ./dist/styles/
});
So basically every time a developer changes something in a less file it runs the task 'compile-less'. The task 'compile-less' builds our package less files (including all the @imports). The first change in a random less file works, all the less files are being build. The second time it runs the task but my generated dist folder isn't updated when I change something to a less file that is imported. I'm wondering if the combination of the watch task and the compiling task somehow caches files. Because if I run the compile-less task manually it works everytime.
Does anyone had the same experience?
