Phpstorm & LiveEdit

Managed to make it working via Gulp task using gulp-livereload. Maybe it helps someone.

How did you set it up? I wanna use something like that. I've heard of livereload but I've never managed to set it up.

Same here, I've tried to get it set up but it never seems to work for me.

Here it is,

• Requires: Chrome LiveReload Extension

gulpfile.js (For Laravel 5)
Laravel 4, please modify source in 'laravel-views' task.

    var gulp = require('gulp');
    var livereload = require('gulp-livereload');

    /**
     * task - 'default'
     * executes 'live-monitor'
     */
    gulp.task('default', ['live-monitor']);

    /**
     * task - 'laravel-views'
     * monitor laravel views
     */
    gulp.task('laravel-views', function() {
        gulp.src('resources/views/**/*.blade.php')
            .pipe(livereload());
    });

    /**
     * task - 'live-monitor'
     * monitors everything
     */
    gulp.task('live-monitor', function() {
        livereload.listen();
        gulp.watch('resources/views/**/*.blade.php', ['laravel-views']);
    });

just run "gulp" via terminal and make sure to not forget enable the LiveReload Chrome Extension, in the toolbar button. xD.

@Ruffles & @domioanna try it.

Cool! I'll try it! Thanks!

@Ruffles do you like it?

@domioanna did you tryed?

The views thing works fine, just trying to tie it into Elixir and get it working for assets.

I have that too. But not using elixir. Just Gulp directly.

Seems that Elixir does not support live-reload natively. I tried Elixir:extend() but was not successful.

https://gist.github.com/ognjenm/d8aaf6997aaca7bbdce6 If you need it badly try this code snippet, but modifying the original package code is not a good thing (You have to re-modify the watch.js whenever laravel-elixir package updates)

https://gist.github.com/appkr/219567b3063c2ce25dcf Refer to my gulpfile.js also.

If you guys have any trouble in sync the output files generated by gulp, i can provide my trick to resolve that issue at least in phpstorm IDE.
