Automatically reload your browser in development.

----

**Work smarter and faster** with my book `Boost Your Django DX `__ which covers django-browser-reload and many other tools.

I wrote django-browser-reload whilst working on the book!

----

Requirements

------------

Python 3.9 to 3.13 supported.

Django 4.2 to 5.1 supported.

WSGI supported on all Django versions. ASGI supported on Django 4.2+.

Your browser needs to support:

* |EventSource|__ - universally available.

  .. |EventSource| replace:: ``EventSource``

  __ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/EventSource#browser_compatibility

* |SharedWorker|__ - available on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Opera for a long time.

  Available on Safari since version 16 (2022-09-12).

  .. |SharedWorker| replace:: ``SharedWorker``

  __ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SharedWorker#browser_compatibility

Installation

------------

1. Install with **pip**:

   .. code-block:: sh

       python -m pip install django-browser-reload

2. Ensure you have ``"django.contrib.staticfiles"`` in your ``INSTALLED_APPS``.

3. Add django-browser-reload to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``:

   .. code-block:: python

       INSTALLED_APPS = [

           ...,

           "django_browser_reload",

           ...,

       ]

4. Include the app URLs in your root URLconf:

   .. code-block:: python

       from django.urls import include, path

       urlpatterns = [

           ...,

           path("__reload__/", include("django_browser_reload.urls")),

       ]

   You can use another prefix if required.

5. Add the middleware:

   .. code-block:: python

      MIDDLEWARE = [

          # ...

          "django_browser_reload.middleware.BrowserReloadMiddleware",

          # ...

      ]

   The middleware should be listed after any others that encode the response, such as Django’s ``GZipMiddleware``.

   The middleware automatically inserts the required script tag on HTML responses before ``
