name collision with other livereload package => ImportError: cannot import name 'livereload_port' from 'livereload'

[floer32]

No help needed, I resolved my issue, but just wanted to leave a note about it.

Error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'livereload_port' from 'livereload'

Cause:

You have both livereload and django-livereload-server installed. Most likely, one was installed before the other,
and having both is an accident.

Fix:

Assuming it's OK to just consolidate on django-livereload-server, get rid of your code that imports or uses livereload directly.
Then:

pip uninstall -y livereload
pip install django-livereload-server

Or equivalent with your preferred package manager.

It's a simple issue really, but easy to miss.
(I initially assumed django-livereload-server wrapped livereload, but rather it's "inspired by"
and they have a namespace collision if you install both. Easy fix though.
