I'm trying to use Livereload using Gulp, Sublime Text 3 and Chrome but for some reason it doesn't work. Here is what I did.
What am I missing here? Do I need to install the Livereload plugin for Sublime Text 3?
FYI - The Options button in the Livereload extension in Chrome is grayed-out.
My Gulpfile:
var gulp = require('gulp');
var scssPlugin = require('gulp-sass');
var livereload = require('gulp-livereload');
gulp.task('myStyles', function () {
gulp.src('sass/*.scss')
.pipe(scssPlugin())
.pipe(gulp.dest('css'))
.pipe(livereload());
});
gulp.task('watchMyStyles', function() {
livereload.listen();
gulp.watch('sass/*.scss', ['myStyles']);
});
gulp.task('default', ['watchMyStyles']);
Package File:
{
"devDependencies": {
"gulp": "^3.9.0",
"gulp-livereload": "^3.8.0",
"gulp-sass": "^2.0.4"
}
}
This is what I did that worked. I used plugin gulp-connect
instead of the gulp-livereload
.
npm install gulp-connect
.My Gulpfile:
var gulp = require('gulp');
var scssPlugin = require('gulp-sass');
var connect = require('gulp-connect');
gulp.task('myStyles', function () {
gulp.src('sass/*.scss')
.pipe(scssPlugin())
.pipe(gulp.dest('css'))
.pipe(connect.reload());
});
gulp.task('connect', function() {
connect.server({
livereload: true
});
});
gulp.task('watchMyStyles', function() {
gulp.watch('sass/*.scss', ['myStyles']);
});
gulp.task('default', ['watchMyStyles', 'connect']);
Package File:
{
"devDependencies": {
"gulp": "^3.9.0",
"gulp-connect": "^2.2.0",
"gulp-sass": "^2.0.4"
}
}
