Eleventy: Incremental passthrough copy

Created on 29 Feb 2020  ·  6Comments  ·  Source: 11ty/eleventy

When using --watch or --serve, passthrough copy files shouldn’t require a full build when using --incremental or on an opt-in basis individually configured in your Configuration file.

They should be able to copy while a build is ongoing without interrupting a build or triggering another build after the current one finishes. (punted to #1001)

@marcfilleul Incremental features require --incremental for now. More discussion about this at #1109

Two pieces of this, allowing passthrough copy files to be processed separately/incrementally and allowing parallel builds so that copy can happen _while_ another build is running. Going to punt parallel builds to a separate issue here, see https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/issues/1001

Also going to wait on Configuration API for individual entries until someone else asks for it 😅

So with Eleventy 0.11, is the incremental passthrough copy automatic or do I need to add a — incremental flag?

Thank you Zach, it's a game changer ;)
