Frish is a small tool that let’s you trigger page reloads in browsers. It helps you to quickly display code changes in your browser.
To get, started install frish with npm and fire up the server.
npm install frish
node_modules/.bin/frish
Then add the following script tag to your html file.
<script src="http://localhost:3008/reloader.js" data-frish></script>
Open the html file in your browser, change something and run
curl -X POST localhost:3008/reload
The browser will reload the current page and display the changes you made.
If you want to integrate frish into your build system to trigger reloads when files have changed or a built has finished you can use the library in Node.
frish [PORT]
Start the frish server at the given port. If omitted, the port defaults to '3008'.
The 'frish' module exports a server contructor.
var frish = require('frish');
var reloader = frish(port, callback);
The port
and callback
arguments are optional. The default port is
'3008'.
The reloader has two functions, both of which are bound to the reloader so you can easily pass them as callbacks.
reloader.reload();
This will send a message to all connected browsers and trigger a page reload.
reloader.close(callback);
This shuts down the server.
