Reloads the browser after a code change in your web app.

When developing static websites, use this plugin as a dev server to serve files from a local directory. Any recompile triggers a browser refresh.

When developing backends that serve HTML, add a script to your dev HTML that watches for build events and refreshes the browser on recompilation.

1. Add to project/plugins.sbt:

    addSbtPlugin("com.malliina" % "live-reload" % "0.6.0")
   

2. Enable LiveReloadPlugin instead in build.sbt:

    val app = project
      .in(file("."))
      .enablePlugins(LiveReloadPlugin)
   

3. Inject the JavaScript URL found in value com.malliina.live.LiveReload.script to the HTML of your web page.

4. When developing apps with sbt-revolver enable LiveRevolverPlugin then run sbt ~startApp. Changes to source code will reload the web page after recompilation.

Folder http4s-app contains an example http4s app with live reloading enabled.

To release a new version to Maven Central, run:

sbt release

This will push a new tag to version control, which triggers this GitHub Action that pushes artifacts to Maven Central.
