tlr

What is quickier than using tiny-lr? Using tlr of course.

About

Small cli util that spawns a simple tiny-lr server.

Batteries NOT included

Integration

The spawned server will listen to all regular tiny-lr endpoints.

e.g. If you're using nodemon you should be able to hook an event into your nodemon.json config file:

{
  "events": {
    "restart": "sleep 1; curl http://localhost:35729/changed?files=foo"
  }
}
 

Please refer to tiny-lr docs for more info on available endpoints.

Install

npm install tlr

Usage

tlr

Using a custom port:

export LR_PORT=9999
tlr

Workflow ideas

• Use it along with nodemon
• and concurrently
• to provide a single npm task
• that can be used as entry point
• Add a <script src="//localhost:35729/livereload.js"></script> to your html template
• Livereload FTW!
