browser-sync-middleware

This module is only concerned with the mechanisms to connect a browser client to a express server & receive updates.

install

$ npm i browser-sync-middleware --save

Use middleware

var browserSyncMiddleware = require('browser-sync-middleware');

app.use(browserSyncMiddleware({
    watch: ['./public/**']
}))

Parameters

watch

(string or array of strings). Paths to files, dirs to be watched recursively, or glob patterns.

ignored

(anymatch-compatible definition) Defines files/paths to be ignored. The whole relative or absolute path is tested, not just filename. If a function with two arguments is provided, it gets called twice per path - once with a single argument (the path), second time with two arguments (the path and the fs.Stats object of that path).

static

this is a static path name. default public. for example:

app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'static')));
app.use(browserSyncMiddleware({
    watch: ['./static/**']
    static: 'static'
}))
