Options

Object, {app, uri}

.pipe(open(options))

Options.app

String, local application

NOTE: If the options.app is not defined, the Default application will be used for the filetype/URL.

 
'google-chrome' // Linux
'chrome' // Windows
'google chrome' or 'Google Chrome' // OSX
'firefox'
 
// Example:
 
.pipe(open({uri: 'file:///etc/resolv.conf', app: 'google-chrome'}));
 

Note for OSX-Users:

You might have to use an absolute path.

var options = {
  uri: 'localhost:3000',
  app: '/Applications/GoogleChrome.app'
};
gulp.src('./')
  .pipe(open(options));

Options.uri

String, any valid uri (url, file protocol, or full path)

Note for windows users:

URLs may not have a default application. If the task is running without opening in a browser try setting the options.app. Google Chrome: "chrome" Firefox: "firefox"

 
'http://localhost:3000'
 
// Example:
gulp.src('')
.pipe(open({app: 'google-chrome', uri: 'http://localhost:3000'}));
