Custom server with Nodemon example

The example shows how you can apply Nodemon to a custom server to have live reload of the server code without being affected by the Next.js universal code.

How to use

Using create-next-app

Execute create-next-app with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:

npm init next-app --example custom-server-nodemon custom-server-nodemon-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example custom-server-nodemon custom-server-nodemon-app

Download manually

Download the example:

curl https://codeload.github.com/zeit/next.js/tar.gz/canary | tar -xz --strip=2 next.js-canary/examples/custom-server-nodemon
cd custom-server-nodemon

Install it and run:

npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn
yarn dev
