Refresher

Monitors your file-system and hosts a web-page which refreshes when a file-system change is detected, uses WebSocket for this communication. Was built primarily to help ease the workflow when working with luxe.

Requirements

  • Racket
  • rfc6455 - can be fetched through raco pkg

Program Flags:

  • The -i flag specifies what index to serve and inject code into, defaults to index.html in current directory.

  • The -r switch specifies which directories to use for serving other things (resources for example) defaults to the same folder as the index.html file is in.

  • The -d switch specifies which directory to watch for changes, currently not recursive.The last command is what to run when a change is detected (build script in this case!).

     # flag example usage
 racket refresh.rkt -i bin/web/index.html -r bin/web -d src/orb/ ./build.sh

Simply use -h or --help to get up the help text.
