Ring middleware for hot reload of server-rendered applications.

deregister-notify-fn! clj

(deregister-notify-fn! f)

Removes a previously registered notification function.

notify! clj

(notify!)

Triggers a reload notification to all registered listeners. Used by the nREPL middleware.

register-notify-fn! clj

(register-notify-fn! f)

Registers a notification function. Called by the middleware on setup so that the nREPL middleware can trigger reloads.

wrap-hot-reload clj

(wrap-hot-reload handler
                 &
                 [{:keys [watch-paths watch-extensions uri-prefix inject?
                          debounce-ms bust-css-cache?]
                   :or {watch-paths ["src"]
                        watch-extensions #{".cljc" ".html" ".css" ".clj" ".edn"}
                        uri-prefix "/__hot-reload"
                        inject? (constantly true)
                        debounce-ms 100
                        bust-css-cache? false}}])

Ring middleware that provides hot reload for server-rendered HTML responses.

Watches file system paths for changes and notifies connected browsers via WebSocket. The browser re-fetches the page and morphs the DOM in place.

Options: :watch-paths - directories to watch (default ["src"]) :watch-extensions - file extensions to trigger reload (default #{"clj" ".cljc" ".edn" ".html" ".css"}) :uri-prefix - WebSocket endpoint path (default "/__hot-reload") :inject? - predicate (fn [request response]) controlling injection (default: always inject into HTML responses) :debounce-ms - debounce window in ms (default 100) :bust-css-cache? - append cache-busting param to stylesheet URLs on reload (default false). Useful when serving plain CSS without Vite or hashed filenames.

Lifecycle: The caller is responsible for starting/stopping the watcher. This middleware returns a map with: :handler - the Ring handler to use :watcher - the Watcher instance :start! - fn [] that starts watching; returns a handle :stop! - fn [handle] that stops watching :notify! - fn [] that manually triggers a reload
