Bring HMR-like auto refresh functionality without any server (e.g. websocket
, socket.io
, etc.) and keep it minimal, simple.
Add following tag to your html file.
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/hotcake"></script>
Or Via GitHub. (Not recommended)
<script src="https://raw.githack.com/Xvezda/hotcake/master/hotcake.js"></script>
Or even with npm... (Also not recommended)
npm install --save-dev hotcake
After installation, you can explicitly initialize hotcake with options.
<script>
new Hotcake({
observe: ['./', './app.js'],
interval: 5000
});
</script>
If hotcake not initialized explicitly, it will automatically initialize with default options when window loaded.
name | type | description | default |
---|---|---|---|
observe | string[] |
Path of files to observe. | ['./'] |
interval | number |
Millisecond value of interval between requests. | 3000 |
