Gzip Size NPM Version License discussions-image

Detect web page updates and notify.

Take the git commit hash as the version number, and write hash into json file. The client polls the git commit hash of the server (visibilitychange event assistant), compares it with the local one, and if it is not the same, notifies the user to refresh the page.

Why

Some users do not have the habit of closing web pages. If the front-end page is updated, the user page may report an error (file 404) or a white screen.

Install

npm add vite-plugin-web-update-notification -D
# yarn add vite-plugin-web-update-notification -D
# pnpm add vite-plugin-web-update-notification -D
