Forever node.js - directory for viewing file changes

Question

I want my node application to index.jsrestart if any file change is found in its directory or below. In addition, I want the process to be in the foreground, outputting the logs to the terminal. What is a team?

My attempts:

forever stopall

forever -w /home/patrick/workspace/frontend-api/index.js

Result:

warn:    --minUptime not set. Defaulting to: 1000ms
warn:    --spinSleepTime not set. Your script will exit if it does not stay up for at least 1000ms
error: Could not read .foreverignore file.
error: ENOENT, open '/.foreverignore'
error: restarting script because unlinkDir changed

events.js:72
        throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
              ^
