localtunnel.me fixed url regeneration eveytime server restarts

I am using localtunnel.me (https://github.com/localtunnel/localtunnel) to create a connection to my localhost. I am using the following command at the terminal: lt --port 80 --subdomain test

Everytime I restart the server the url is regenerated to a random server. Is there anyway to get the same url.

The other answer is correct in a way, though I tried to answer it in a much simpler way since I spent a lot of time debugging issues with getting the same URL for the Local Tunnel.

Suppose, I want my URL should be something like this:

https://olive-walls-cough-103-181-222-27.loca.lt

You just need to hit the below command:

lt --subdomain olive-walls-cough-103-181-222-27 --port 3000

Now here the order of flags doesn't matter.

I Have attached the image below with the same thing working!

Note: Before hitting this command make sure you have installed the localtunnel globally.

Might be late to answer but --local-host xxx.xxx.x.x --subdomain xxxx --port xxx lets you get the same URL each time. The flags need to be passed in same order.

For example if --subdomain is as follows --local-host xxx.xxx.x.x --subdomain --port xxx dummy_url then you will get https://dummy_url.loca.lt/
