How do I build with watch enabled using angular-cli?

Question

I don\'t want to use serve, I know it watches for changes, builds and serves. I want to build upon changes. According to \"ng help\", build takes parameter --watch

Answer 1

I don´t know if it´s a bug or just not documented, but it seems that you need to add a output path for watching with ng build -o dist -w while dist is your output path.

Update:

The command is now: ng build -op dist -w

Update 2:

The command is now: ng build --output-path dist --watch
