I was checking the watch command, and it did not behave as expected.

So I made a simple script and tested it.

#!/bin/bash

# Set initial time of the last file update
INTIAL_LAST_MODIFICATION_TIME=`stat -c %Z $1`

while true
do
# Check time of the last time update
   LAST_MODIFICATIO_TIME=`stat -c %Z $1`

# Execute command, If file has changed
   if [[ "$LAST_MODIFICATIO_TIME" != "$INTIAL_LAST_MODIFICATION_TIME" ]]
   then
       $2
       INTIAL_LAST_MODIFICATION_TIME=$LAST_MODIFICATIO_TIME
   fi
   sleep ${3:-5}
done

Example usage will be,

./name_of_the_script 

{file_to_watch} 

{command_to_execute_if_file_have_changed} 

{time_to_wait_before_checking_again_in_seconds_default_is_5}

In your case, would be something like the following ./watch config.yaml "oc apply -f config.yaml" 2

Hope this will be helpful. And there are few 3rd party libraries that will provide more options. like entr, inotify-tools and watch exec
