File not refreshing

Wait, no I'm tired an misreading what --dev does, I thought it set up a watcher, but it's just that it sets params suitable for dev. Everything working as expected, sorry for the issue and thanks for the very quick response!

Hey! You do need the --dev flag if you're using the CLI. It's opts.dev if you're using middleware.

Sirv assumes production mode by default, and in production you don't want to be constantly hitting the filesystem.

Hope that helps!

Oh cool. Should I open a PR with some warning o better flagging of this. It wasn't that obvious from the README, or maybe I was reading the wrong one 🤔

I'm experiencing this issue too with sirv 0.2.2, I'm using the --dev flag. I came across the issue from using Svelte template. Tried in Firefox and Chrome.

Is it possible you have any lingering cache headers or service workers running?

The dev mode for sirv maintains zero cache & traverses the filesystem every time a request reaches it. I'm thinking either of those two are fulfilling the request before it hits your server

No problem! My eyes often play tricks on me too
