Svelte-tag

A webcomponet wrapper for svelte.

This embeds your svelte app inside a single component. It also forwards all slots and attributes into your svelte app.

Why?

Svelte already allows you to create webcomponents. However it has a couple of flaws:

• All of your nested components have to be webcomponents as the render flag applies to everything.
• You have to use shadow dom.
• You have to deal with lots of bugs.
• You loose many features svelte has for inter-component communication.

How do I use it?

npm install svelte-tag

import Component from "svelte-tag"
import App from "your-app.svelte"
new Component({component:App,tagname:"hello-world",href="/your/stylesheet.css",attributes:["name"]})

Now anywhere you use the <hello-world> tag you'll get a svelte app. Obviously you can set your tag name to anything containing a dash.

<hello-world name="Cris"></hello-world>

Option	Description
component	Your svelte component
tagname	The webcomponent tag-name, must contain a dash
href	link to your stylesheet - optional, but required with shadow dom
attributes	array - attributes you like your tag to forward to your component
shadow	boolean - should this component use shadow dom

Support

Be aware, I don't have a lot of time to support this package. I've mainly open sourced it because I've noticed lots of people with similar use cases. If you open an issue I'll respond but it may not be super quick. I'll accept pull requests to fix any issues, but I'd prefer not to add additional functionality.
