# watch2

Dotnet watch on steroids

It can

1. clear the console after each run 

   

2. wait before the watch process to start ( good if you have to run both tests and main program)

## NuGet Tool

You can find the `Watch2` NuGet Tool [here](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Watch2).

Install the package using the following command:

```

dotnet tool install --global Watch2 

```

## Usage

You can use everywhere you use `dotnet watch` . Just replace `dotnet watch` with `dotnet watch2` .

A watch2.json file is created in the current directory. You can modify it to your needs.

```json

{

  "version": 1,

  "ClearConsole": true,

  "TimeOut": 15000

}

```

- `ClearConsole` : if true, it will clear the console after each run

- `TimeOut` : the time in milliseconds to wait for the process to start. 

- `version` : the version of the file. Do not change it.
