Description

  • Description: I'm trying to run expo start along with another command, I'm using --handle-input but nothing happens when I press r (reload) or i (open on iOS)
  • Expected Behavior: I would expect the commands to be forwarded to the Expo CLI
  • Environment: macOS, Node lts/jod
  • Reproduction: concurrently -k -n 'mobile-client,backend' -c 'red,green' --handle-input 'yarn expo start' 'yarn workspace backend run dev'

Research direction

Reproduce the reported command on macOS and trace the CLI handling for the --handle-input option, using the Expo start process and its r and i inputs. Done means those commands are forwarded to Expo CLI and trigger reload or iOS opening while the backend process runs.
