@includable/open-browser v1.1.0

Open browser

Very simple utility function that opens the browser, with some smartness built in:

• It uses the BROWSER environment variable to determine what browser to open.
• BROWSER can be set to a script file name ending in .js to call that script with the URL instead of opening the browser.
• When using Google Chrome on Mac and a tab with the same URL is already open, it will focus and reload that tab instead of opening a new tab.

Installation

npm i @includable/open-browser

Usage

const openBrowser = require('@includable/open-browser')

openBrowser('https://www.includable.com/')
