rollup-plugin-copy-watch

library0.0.1jsnpmunverified

A fork of rollup-plugin-copy (v3.4.0) that adds a `watch` option to watch additional sources (e.g., static assets) outside Rollup's bundle graph, triggering copy on change. Version 0.0.1 is the only release (unstable). It uses Chokidar for file watching and supports glob patterns, multiple targets, and flatten/hash options. Less maintained than the original; use for watch-mode copy only, else prefer rollup-plugin-copy.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import copy from 'rollup-plugin-copy-watch'

✗ const copy = require('rollup-plugin-copy-watch')

ESM default export; CJS require not supported by Rollup plugins

copy

✓ import copy from 'rollup-plugin-copy-watch'

✗ import { copy } from 'rollup-plugin-copy-watch'

Named export not available; use default import

copy (type)

✓ import type { RollupPluginCopyWatchOptions } from 'rollup-plugin-copy-watch'

✗ import { Options } from 'rollup-plugin-copy-watch'

TypeScript types are shipped; use named type import for options

Rollup config that copies HTML and images with watch on static folder.

import copy from 'rollup-plugin-copy-watch'; export default { input: 'src/index.js', output: { file: 'dist/app.js', format: 'cjs' }, plugins: [ copy({ watch: 'static', targets: [ { src: 'src/index.html', dest: 'dist/public' }, { src: ['assets/images/**/*'], dest: 'dist/public/images' } ] }) ] };

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe 'watch' option must be explicitly set to enable source file watching; default is null (no watch).

fix

Add `watch: 'your/path'` to the options object.

affects: >=0.0.1

deprecatedThis package is a low-activity fork; prefer rollup-plugin-copy for production unless watch functionality is required.

fix

Switch to rollup-plugin-copy if watch is not needed.

affects: >=0.0.1

gotchaChokidar options are not exposed; only 'watch' is passed to chokidar.watch().

fix

Use rollup-plugin-copy with a separate watcher if full Chokidar control is needed.

affects: >=0.0.1

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'chokidar'

fix

TypeError: copy is not a function

Using named import { copy } instead of default import.
