valet local domain with browser sync Laravel mix

Question

I have load laravel project which runs fine with valet domain something.dev

Tried to implement browser sync with laravel-mix

mix.browserSync({
    proxy: 'something.dev'
});

After running npm run watch it is pointing me to http://localhost:3000/

Can i point to to valet domain instead of localhost:3000 ?

Here is the output of npm run watch

Asset     Size  Chunks             Chunk Names
mix.js  2.59 kB       0  [emitted]  mix

Answer 1

I had similar issues myself getting browserSync working with Valet, but the options I use are:

mix.browserSync({
    proxy: 'something.test',
    host: 'something.test',
    open: 'external'
});

host overrides any detection of hostname in browserSync

open tells it which URL to open (local by default)
