Connect to HMR websocket

[RomaLefrancois]

I'm trying to connect to the web socket that handles HMR to trigger custom function in another application.
In chrome and postman when I initiate the connection to ws://localhost:5173/ the connection remains pending / connecting and nothing ever happens.

Is there any limitation on this web socket, preventing for other client to connect to it ?

Not sure why, but I got it to work by setting hmr on a different port.

server: {
    host: "0.0.0.0",
    port: 8887,
    strictPort: true,
    hmr: {
      host: "0.0.0.0",
      port: 8886,
    },
  },

Thanks, 2 years later it is still useful.
