Laravel Serve LiveReload
========================

[](#laravel-serve-livereload)

> **This package is daed, please use the new [Vite integrated](https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/vite#introduction) instead**

This package integrates into default `artisan serve` command an WebSockets server for live reloading the application when any file changed. How it works, checkout my [blog post](https://daudau.cc/posts/laravel-live-reload-without-javascript) for explaination if you don't like digging into source code.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

For laravel 8, please use version ^1.x, and below use version 0.x

`composer require bangnokia/laravel-serve-livereload --dev`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Open terminal and run `php artisan serve`

This package works even when you use custom vhost such as `valet` or `laragon`

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

By default, this package looking for files changes in these directories:

```
/app
/public
/config
/routes
/resources

```

If you want to customize the watched forlders, you can publish the configuration file by this commmand:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="BangNokia\ServeLiveReload\CommandServiceProvider"
```

and then you can config what you want in the `config/serve_livereload.php`.
