Reproduction

Description

In @nuxt/content, the dev module sets runtimeConfig.public.content.wsUrl = listener.url.replace(...) unconditionally.

This makes it impossible to override wsUrl using nuxt.config.ts or hooks, as the value is always replaced during module init. Needed for non local dev installs.

Expected behavior:
If the user has already set public.content.wsUrl, the module should not overwrite it.

Suggested fix:

if (!nitro.options.runtimeConfig.public?.content?.wsUrl) {
  nitro.options.runtimeConfig.public.content.wsUrl = listener.url.replace("http", "ws")
}

happens in:

• node_modules/@nuxt/content/dist/module.mjs
• node_modules/@nuxt/content/dist/module.cjs

Sorry, first time using stackblitz took some minutes to get it not working...

If you open the console you can see content module to open ws socket to the default server location but if you check the config you can see that i have tried to change the wsUrl to another host. This is because an overwrite of the configured wsurl as described above. This makes sense if the wsurl isn't in the config. I tried the above fix and then it works as expected.
