Grunt-contrib-watch causes call stack size to be exceeded

When I run a clean task (grunt clean) everything works as expected, but when I run a view task (grunt test) I get the following error:

util.js:35
  var str = String(f).replace(formatRegExp, function(x) {
                  ^
RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

      

Here's my gruntfile

module.exports = (grunt) ->

  grunt.initConfig
    pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json')

    clean: ['tmpDir/']

    watch:
      options:
        spawn: false
      src:
        tasks: ['clean']
        files: [
          src: 'client/assets/strings/en/str.coffee'
        ]

  # plugins
  grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-clean')
  grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch')

  # tasks
  grunt.registerTask('test', ['watch'])

      

Here is my package.json file:

{
  "author": "Your Name <Your Email>",
  "name": "app-name",
  "description": "Application description",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "homepage": "",
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": ""
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": "~0.10.28"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "muffin server"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "coffee-script": "~1.1.2",
    "express": "~3.0.6",
    "chai": "~1.4.2",
    "underscore": "~1.4.3",
    "wd": "0.0.27"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "express": "~3.0.6",
    "grunt": "^0.4.5",
    "grunt-contrib-coffee": "^0.11.1",
    "grunt-contrib-copy": "^0.6.0",
    "grunt-contrib-less": "^0.11.4",
    "grunt-contrib-watch": "^0.6.1",
    "requirejs": "~2.0.1"
  }
}

      

The output when I run with --verbose is as follows: Note: replaced base path with ***

The property files

accepts an array of file template strings. You provided an object that it doesn't know how to interpret.

Change this:

files: [
  src: 'client/assets/strings/en/str.coffee'
]

      



For this:

files: [
  'client/assets/strings/en/str.coffee'
]

I finally figured out a similar problem I had with the spell. I used

grunt.registerTask ('spell', ['spell']); The trick was that Grunt doesn't seem to like repetition in names. When I switch to



grunt.registerTask ('spellCheck', ['spell']); Everything worked as it should.

can this help you
