I'm not sure if this was intentional or not, but it appears that having a .nodemonignore file is required for the service to work. Before I added the ignore file my app would startup but wouldn't restart when files changed. Once I added an ignore file, everything works as expected. If you really do need a .nodemonignore file then the docs should be updated to say that.
