browser-sync | JavaScript Ecosystem Directory

This is an important issue for me - many devs that support old browsers like IE11 are doing so because their projects are used in public services, or internal applications. Not every developer out there has the luxury of supporting evergreen-only browsers.

So, IE11 will work once again 🎉. Please use the issues thread to make me aware of any problem that's preventing you from using Browsersync in your day job 💪 (and be sure to thumbs-up the issues you want to see resolved)

# IE11 works, again
npm install browser-sync@latest

browser-sync - added `snippet: boolean` option

Published by shakyShane over 3 years ago

This release adds a feature to address https://github.com/BrowserSync/browser-sync/issues/1882

Sometimes you don't want Browsersync to auto-inject it's connection snippet into your HTML - now you can disable it globally via either a CLI param or the new snippet option :)

browser-sync . --no-snippet

or in any Browsersync configuration

const config = {
  snippet: false,
};

the original request was related to Eleventy usage, so here's how that would look

eleventyConfig.setBrowserSyncConfig({
  snippet: false,
});

browser-sync - upgraded dependencies

This is a maintenance release to address 2 security related issues (socket.io & axios)

Happy Browsersync'in :)

browser-sync - the `listen` option release

Published by shakyShane about 6 years ago

Browsersync can now be used in more restrictive areas, ones where you cannot simply bind to all addresses on the host (such as schools or universities) - this is enabled via the listen option.

For backwards compatibility reasons, we actually cannot use the host option to acheive this (even though that would make the most sense), as it would break some people's existing setups.

This is mainly because in the past, host was not used to determine an address to bind to, but rather just as a way of changing the urls Browsersync displays to the user. :( :( :(

It was a big mistake, but now with the sheer size of the user base we have, every tiny change to any existing option causes some kind of breakage. I'm not prepared to do that again with host.

So, instead we're back to the old method of instead adding a new option, that I've called listen. It's the only way we can acheive the goal without breaking existing users who are using host for other reasons.

The idea is that you'd only ever use the listen option if you want to restrict the address being bound to. For example, the following will serve files from the current directory, but behind the scenes Browsersync will only bind to localhost (this does mean that other features such as external urls will not work any more, but if you need this listen option in the first place, that will not be a concern for you)

npm i -g [email protected]
browser-sync . --listen localhost
