Best of both worlds supervisor and forever

[cani]

I setup supervisor so I can run ./nodebb watch and have it automatically restart when I ftp changes to nodebb which works great. The problem is it runs in the foreground and I have to leave the terminal window open or the app exits.

So I installed forever which allows me to run nodebb in the background but now it doesn't automatically restart when I edit a file.

My question is how can I use forever and still have it restart on file changes?

forever start -w

Should watch for file changes like supervisor.

You can check out all the options for forever here.
