Designed to work with the Elder.js Template and integrate browser reloading.

When the server is restarted due to a code change, the browser will restart as well.
npm install --save @elderjs/plugin-browser-reload
Once installed, open your elder.config.js and configure the plugin by adding @elderjs/plugin-browser-reload to your plugin object.

}
Below are the default settings of the plugin. You can adjust them to your needs.
plugins: {
'@elderjs/plugin-browser-reload': {
origin: 'http://localhost',
port: 8080, // the port the websocket server should run on.
delay: 200, // the delay in ms the browser should wait after the server disappears.
preventReloadQS: 'noreload', // if 'noreload' is in the query string it won't reload that page. Good for CSS editing in the browser.
