API

These are the parameters you can pass to the constructor.

• route [String]: What Express route to put the client-side JS file on. Default: /express-browser-reload.js.
• skipDeletingConnections [Boolean]: Whether to skip cleaning up connections when your app closes the Express server. express-browser-reload holds a WebSocket open to every page it is loaded on, and a socket handed off to an upgrade listener stops being tracked by the server, so an open WebSocket would otherwise keep server.close() from ever finishing. By default express-browser-reload wraps server.close() so that closing the server destroys the WebSockets it opened and calls Node's server.closeIdleConnections() for everything else, which drops idle keep-alive connections while letting requests still in flight finish normally. If you are already handling this on your Express server yourself, set this param to true to prevent errors and leave server.close() untouched. Default: false.
