    port: 7890,
    redirect: "http://192.168.1.100:3000"
});
 
gulp.task("nodemon", function () {
    nodemon({
        script: "app.js",
        ext: "js html ejs",
    })
    .on('restart', function () {
        // delay to refresh until server restarted
        setTimeout(refresh, 500);
    });
});
