how to change atom-live-server default browser

Does anyone have experience changing the default browser for atom-live-server? The documentation says to add, {"browser" : "browser-name"}, to atom-live-server.json. I did that and the default live server browser did not change from Chrome which is my default browser for macos 10.14.1. Here is the atom-live-server.json file, but it didn't work.



{
"atom-workspace": {
"ctrl-alt-3": "atom-live-server:start-3000",
"ctrl-alt-4": "atom-live-server:start-4000",
"ctrl-alt-5": "atom-live-server:start-5000",
"ctrl-alt-8": "atom-live-server:start-8000",
"ctrl-alt-9": "atom-live-server:start-9000",
"ctrl-alt-l": "atom-live-server:startServer",
"ctrl-alt-q": "atom-live-server:stopServer"
}
{
"browser" : "Firefox"
}
}


Does atom-live-server always use the macos default browser so you can't actually change it?



Thanks for your help.

          It looks like this is caused by a simple syntax error in your JSON file. You need to separate keys with a comma. Your file should look like the following (note the comma on line 10):



          {
          "atom-workspace": {
          "ctrl-alt-3": "atom-live-server:start-3000",
          "ctrl-alt-4": "atom-live-server:start-4000",
          "ctrl-alt-5": "atom-live-server:start-5000",
          "ctrl-alt-8": "atom-live-server:start-8000",
          "ctrl-alt-9": "atom-live-server:start-9000",
          "ctrl-alt-l": "atom-live-server:startServer",
          "ctrl-alt-q": "atom-live-server:stopServer"
          },
          {
          "browser" : "Firefox"
          }
          }
