middleman-livereload is an extension for the Middleman static site generator that adds livereloading functionality.
If you're just getting started, install the middleman gem and generate a new project:
gem install middleman
middleman init MY_PROJECT
If you already have a Middleman project: Add gem "middleman-livereload", "~> 3.3.0" to your Gemfile and run bundle install
activate :livereload
The extension supports a number of options that can be given to the activate statement. Eg:
activate :livereload, :apply_js_live => false
Livereload's listener host/port, these options get passed to ::Rack::LiveReload middleware. Defaults:'0.0.0.0' and '35729'.
Whether live reload should attempt to reload javascript / css 'in-place', without complete reload of the page. Both default to true.
@import'ed CSS files or require'd JS files (because of LiveReload not providing enough information regarding dependencies). On those kind of files, a full page reload will be triggered.
Disable Flash polyfil for browsers that support native WebSockets.
