tsserver stopped working after any package install

[ronitkrshah]

Issue

(In React Native)

In the middle of coding if I add any package (npm/yarn) tsserver stops working. But in COC Status it shows that the server is active.
I have to run :CocRestart. After that it works

NVIM : Latest(Stable)
OS: Arch Linux
Kernel : LTS Release
Terminal: alacritty

How I Work

tmux with 3-4 windows

1 - Main Code
2 - Development Server yarn run android
3 - scrcpy for screen mirroring.

I use coc-prettier & coc-tsserver during development.

I can provide logs but please send me the command to get logs

Similar issue #431.

Try this: install https://facebook.github.io/watchman/ and make sure watchman started after you open your project, coc.nvim will use watchman to watch files changes and notify language server, maybe this can help.

Watchman is installed on my PC, but I'm unsure if it's actively monitoring my project. Additionally, I couldn't find a .watchmanconfig file in the project root. How can I confirm if it's working correctly?

After you open your project in vim, check :CocCommand workspace.showOutput watchman.

After running that command i got this output. Seems like watchman is watching but still the issue exists

@fannheyward I just uninstalled watchman ....and all my issues are solved dunno why

[chaozwn]

add .watchman.json in your project root. so this issue can close now.

{
  "ignore_dirs": [
    "dist",
    "node_modules"
  ]
}
