Livereload breaks the middleware

[lnfnunes]

I'm using compression package for gzip my responses. It works fine if livereload options is "false". When I turn it on the middleware stops working and the browser has blank responses from server (no page). Bellow is my middleware configuration:

server: {
  options: {
    port: 8000,
    livereload: false,
    keepalive: false,
    middleware : function(connect, options, middlewares) {
      // Some bug if ivereload is enabled !!!
      if (!options.livereload) {
        middlewares.unshift(compression());
      }
      return middlewares;
    }
}

I can't reproduce this really. I tried putting it on and off and in both cases, middleware.unshift is not working.

@lnfnunes try the following:

• get rid of livereload
• npm install connect-livereload --save-dev
• add middlewares in the following order: middleware: function (connect, options, middlewares) { middlewares.unshift(require('grunt-middleware-proxy/lib/Utils').getProxyMiddleware(), compression(), require('connect-livereload')()) return middlewares; }

If you are not using a proxy, you can get rid of the "grunt-middleware-proxy" middleware.

Thanks in advance! Unfornutly, nowadays I don't have this scenario anymore so I can't confirm if this works or not. Thanks for you reply @chhaymenghong!
