• Stop watching for changes on filename. If listener is specified, only that particular listener is removed. Otherwise, all listeners are removed, effectively stopping watching of filename.

    Calling fs.unwatchFile() with a filename that is not being watched is a no-op, not an error.

    Using watch is more efficient than fs.watchFile() andfs.unwatchFile(). fs.watch() should be used instead of fs.watchFile()and fs.unwatchFile() when possible.
