Incorrect getDependencies()

[buckle2000]

http://brunch.io/docs/plugins#method-getdependencies-file-array-path-

Method: getDependencies(file): Array[Path]
Given a file, this should return a list of file paths that depend on this one.

However, the current getDependencies returns "a list of file paths that this one depends on", not "a list of file paths that depend on this one".

Or is the description of getDependencies incorrect? For some reasons, this dependency system is still not working.

[buckle2000]

brunch never calls getDependencies(any_template). It never asks for that information, so there is no way it can update dependents on update (in watch mode). It may be a design flaw of brunch.

So I fixed getDependenies, but the dependency system is still broken. 😕 😞

@buckle2000 thanks for the feedback, I will investigate this.

There is something wrong with brunch itself. brunch/brunch#1789

[aMarCruz]

yeah, recompiling dependencies with brunch is a nightmare :)

@buckle2000 , pugjs-brunch v2.11.0 is in npm, I hope this version solves issues with the watcher.

Seems Brunch is unmaintained now and I don't know if I will update this plugin anymore.

Closing this.
