Hey,

I'm finishing up a JS project using Spine and it's been a blast - Spine has been solid throughout

I've been using Gulp to inline Spine's JSON into my project (I manually wrote the .atlas file). Please see this SO question to see my Gulp task: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33398558/gulp-task-failing-only-with-gulp-watch

The problem is gulp.watch() (which typically watches a directory for changes) appears to be fired too early which leads me to believe that the Spine Editor may 'touch' this file either at the beginning or during the process of exporting, causing the task to fail until manually called again. (The way I've got round it with my project is to wrap the whole thing in a 2 second 'setTimeout' which isn't ideal).

Can you confirm/deny this behaviour with the exported JSON, and is it something that can be fixed?

The reason I ask is that I am hoping to write a gulp plugin to help the Spine/Pixi community and want to pin down this issue before I do.

Thanks.

Thanks for the hints. I'll have a look to see if there's a nice way to deal with this when I have a moment.. a quick google brought up Chokidar: https://github.com/paulmillr/chokidar as an alternative to fs.watch.

Edit: scratch that, gulp already uses Chokidar.. will keep looking.
