Rsync guard allows to automatically sync directories when source file
changes.

Focus of this guard task is to sync directories while excluding
autogenerated files and their sources.

group(:build_my_app) do
  guard('rsync', {
    :input => 'apps_src/my_app',
    :output => 'apps',
    :excludes => {
      /(.+)\.coffee$/ => (lambda {|m| "#{m[1]}.js"})
    },
    :run_group_on_start => true
  }) do
    watch(%r{^apps_src/my_app/(.+\.(?!coffee)(.*)|[^.]+)$})
  end

  guard 'coffeescript', :input => 'apps_src/my_app', :output => 'apps/my_app'
