type Client = {
  /** Specify the protocol name for the WebSocket request */
  protocol?: 'ws' | 'wss';
  /** Specify the path for the WebSocket request */
  path?: string;
  /** Specify the port number for the WebSocket request */
  port?: string;
  /** Specify the host for the WebSocket request */

   * This feature requires the current browser version to support [Web Components](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components)
   */
  overlay?: boolean;
};
  • Default:
const defaultConfig = {
  path: '/webpack-hmr',
  // Defaults to the port number of the dev server
  port: '',
  host: location.hostname,
  protocol: location.protocol === 'https:' ? 'wss' : 'ws',
  overlay: false,
};
