Reloading stops on syntax errors

[bayov]

Whenever the middleware encounters a syntax error, hot-reloading stops.

The browser is first notified of the error, and displays the error on a red background (all good...). But then no new HMR notifications are received and it seems like the server stops watching for new changes.

I tested this on Windows 10, using:

webpack@2.0.5-beta
webpack-dev-middleware@1.5.1
webpack-hot-middleware@2.6.4

I've not done much testing on webpack v2 yet - does this also happen on webpack v1?

[bayov]

Does not happen using webpack@1.12.13

This will either be a bug, or a change in the HMR APIs - I'll see about having a look into what, if anything, has changed.

Should be resolved with #85 and #86

Released as 2.10.0

Hi,

I have been creating a scaffold with react-redux and webpack for hot reloading.
At first, hot reloading works good, but after any syntax error webpack-hot-middleware/client stops checking for updates on the server and hot reloading. It just shows the bundle rebuilding status.

I am using:
Windows 10
"webpack": "^2.4.1"
"webpack-dev-middleware": "^1.10.2",
"webpack-hot-middleware": "^2.18.0"
