## README
# Express Livereload
This is really small plugin for express, which will run `LiveReload` server simultaniously for development.
### Installation
npm install express-livereload
### Usage
livereload = require('express-livereload')
app = express()
livereload(app, config={})
#### Static helper
This plugin will attach `LRScript` which renders the snippet for loading `livereload.js` script.
`layout.jade`
doctype 5
html
head
title= title
link(rel='stylesheet', href='/stylesheets/style.css')
!= LRScript
`compiled.html`
Express
### Config options
`config` objects can accept same options as [node-livereload] does, but with one extra key to specify which directry to watch out for.
config.watchDir = /path/to/dir or process.cwd() + "/public"
