Browsersync

Contents

INFO:
Starting with Eleventy 2.0, the Eleventy Dev Server is now the default stock development server in Eleventy core. This section of documentation only applies to Eleventy 1.x and 0.x and will be removed when Eleventy 2.0 is stable. If you want to use Browsersync with Eleventy 2.0, learn how to swap back to Browsersync.

Override Browsersync Server Options

Useful if you want to change or override the default Browsersync configuration. Find the Eleventy defaults in EleventyServe.js. Take special note that Eleventy does not use Browsersync’s watch options and trigger reloads manually after our own internal watch methods are complete. See full options list on the Browsersync documentation.

eleventy.config.js
export default function(eleventyConfig) {
eleventyConfig.setBrowserSyncConfig({
notify: true,
});
};
module.exports = function(eleventyConfig) {
eleventyConfig.setBrowserSyncConfig({
notify: true,
});
};

Opt-out of the Browsersync JavaScript snippet

New in browser-sync@2.27.1 . Opt-out of the JavaScript snippet normally injected by Browsersync. This disables Browsersync live-reloading.

eleventy.config.js
export default function(eleventyConfig) {
eleventyConfig.setBrowserSyncConfig({
snippet: false,
});
};
module.exports = function(eleventyConfig) {
eleventyConfig.setBrowserSyncConfig({
snippet: false,
});
};
