Overview
========

A micro http server useful for dev ONLY :

* serve static file
* notify change to client via LiveReload protocol (over socket)

Usages
======

The default port is 35729 (like define in the LiveReload protocol).
If you change the port then you could not use the [Browsers Extension](http://feedback.livereload.com/knowledgebase/articles/86242-how-do-i-install-and-use-the-browser-extensions-) for LiveReload, but it should works if you insert a [JavaScript snippet](http://go.livereload.com/mobile) in your pages.

Cli
---

Download the [livereload-jvm-0.2.0-onejar.jar](http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/net/alchim31/livereload-jvm/0.2.0/livereload-jvm-0.2.0-onejar.jar) (or regular jar  + all dependencies from maven central).

java -jar livereload-jvm-0.2.0-onejar.jar -d web/root/path [port]

Java integration
----------------

//#repo central m2:http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/
    
    import java.nio.file.FileSystems;
    import net_alchim31_livereload.LRServer; //#from net.alchim31:livereload-jvm:0.2.0
    
    int port = 35729;
    Path docroot = FileSystems.getDefault().getPath("web/root/path");
    new LRServer(port, docroot).run(); // == start() + join()

If you provide a plugin for your builder (maven, ant, sbt, gradle, plob, ...), let me know.
