LiveReload
On this page

<LiveReload />

This component connects your app to the Remix asset server and automatically reloads the page when files change in development. In production, it renders null, so you can safely render it always in your root route.

import { LiveReload } from "@remix-run/react";

export default function Root() {
  return (
    <html>
      <head />
      <body>
        <LiveReload />
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

Props

origin

Specify a custom origin for the Live Reload protocol. The url provided should use the http protocol, that will be upgraded to ws protocol internally. This is useful when using a reverse proxy in front of the Remix dev server. The default value is the REMIX_DEV_ORIGIN environment variable, or window.location.origin only if REMIX_DEV_ORIGIN is not set.

port

Specify a custom port for the Live Reload protocol. The default value is the port derived from REMIX_DEV_ORIGIN environment variable, or 8002 only if REMIX_DEV_ORIGIN is not set.

timeoutMs

The timeoutMs prop allows specifying a custom timeout for the Live Reload protocol, in milliseconds. This is the delay before trying to reconnect if the Web Socket connection is lost. The default value is 1000.
