@sanity/svelte-loader

npm stat npm version gzip size size

A Sanity loader for Svelte and SvelteKit.

Loaders provide a convenient, unified way of loading data across production, development and preview states, for both server and client side rendering. They also handle the heavy lifting of implementing Visual Editing alongside Presentation.

Read more about loaders here.

Installation

npm install @sanity/svelte-loader

# We will also need the following dependencies for fetching data and enabling visual editing
npm install @sanity/client @sanity/visual-editing

Usage

Use the steps below with an existing or new SvelteKit app to enable visual editing using the Svelte loader.

Define environment variables

Create a .env file in the project's root directory and provide the following environment variables. The token should not be exposed on the client, so the PUBLIC_ prefix is omitted.

# .env
SANITY_API_READ_TOKEN="..."
PUBLIC_SANITY_PROJECT_ID="..."
PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET="..."
PUBLIC_SANITY_API_VERSION="..."
PUBLIC_SANITY_STUDIO_URL="..."

Setup Sanity client instances

Create and export an instance of Sanity client using the previously defined environment variables.

// src/lib/sanity.ts
import {createClient} from '@sanity/client'
import {
  PUBLIC_SANITY_API_VERSION,
  PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET,
  PUBLIC_SANITY_PROJECT_ID,
  PUBLIC_SANITY_STUDIO_URL,
} from '$env/static/public'

export const client = createClient({
  projectId: PUBLIC_SANITY_PROJECT_ID,
  dataset: PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET,
  apiVersion: PUBLIC_SANITY_API_VERSION,
  useCdn: true,
  stega: {
    studioUrl: PUBLIC_SANITY_STUDIO_URL,
  },
})

On the server, we use a Sanity client configured with a read token to allow the fetching of preview content.

// src/lib/server/sanity.ts
import {SANITY_API_READ_TOKEN} from '$env/static/private'
import {client} from '$lib/sanity'

export const serverClient = client.withConfig({
  token: SANITY_API_READ_TOKEN,
  // Optionally enable stega
  // stega: true
})

Configure loaders and previews

We pass the server client instance to setServerClient in the server hooks file as this code will only be executed once during app initialization.

The loader package also exports an optional createRequestHandler for creating a server hook handle function which:

  • Creates server routes used to enable and disable previews.
  • Verifies the preview cookie on each request and sets locals.preview to true or false.
  • Sets and configures locals.loadQuery, the function we will use to fetch data on the server.
// src/hooks.server.ts
import {createRequestHandler, setServerClient} from '@sanity/svelte-loader'
import {serverClient} from '$lib/server/sanity'

setServerClient(serverClient)

export const handle = createRequestHandler()

Note

If our app needs to support multiple handle functions, we can use SvelteKit's sequence function.

Update types

createRequestHandler adds properties to the event.locals object. When using TypeScript, we should add these to our app's App.Locals interface.

// app.d.ts
import type {LoaderLocals} from '@sanity/svelte-loader'

declare global {
  namespace App {
    interface Locals extends LoaderLocals {}
  }
}

export {}

Client side preview state

To access the preview state on the client side of our application, we pass it via a load function. Typically, the root level layout is a good place to do this. We return the value of locals.preview that the previously created handle function defines for us.

// src/routes/+layout.server.ts
import type {LayoutServerLoad} from './$types'

export const load: LayoutServerLoad = ({locals: {preview}}) => {
  return {preview}
}

We then access the passed preview value via the LoadEvent.data property, and set the preview state using the loader's setPreviewing function.

// src/routes/+layout.ts
import {setPreviewing} from '@sanity/svelte-loader'
import type {LayoutLoad} from './$types'

export const load: LayoutLoad = ({data: {preview}}) => {
  setPreviewing(preview)
}

We can now import isPreviewing (a readonly Svelte store) anywhere in our app. For example, in a component to display if previews are enabled or disabled:

<!-- src/components/DisplayPreview.svelte -->
<script lang="ts">
import { isPreviewing } from '@sanity/svelte-loader'
</script>

{#if $isPreviewing}
  <div>Previews Enabled</div>
{:else}
  <div>Previews Disabled</div>
{/if}

Define queries

Next, create a queries file and define a GROQ query and associated result type. This example query is used to fetch a single page with a matching slug.

// src/lib/queries.ts
export const pageQuery = `*[_type == "page" && slug.current == $slug][0]`

export interface PageResult {
  title: string
  // ...etc
}

Create a Svelte page and data loader

loadQuery

Create a server load function for our page that will handle fetching data from the Sanity Content Lake. Use locals.loadQuery to fetch data on the server.

// src/routes/[slug]/+page.server.ts
import {pageQuery, type PageResult} from '$lib/queries'
import type {PageServerLoad} from './$types'

export const load: PageServerLoad = async ({params, locals: {loadQuery}}) => {
  const {slug} = params

  const initial = await loadQuery<PageResult>(pageQuery, {slug})

  return {initial, params: {slug}}
}

useQuery

Next, create the page component. We use useQuery on the client, passing the initial data and route parameters that were returned by the load function. When live editing is enabled, useQuery will provide near instant updates from Content Lake and seamless switching between draft and published content.

useQuery also returns an encodeDataAttribute helper method for generating data-sanity attributes to support rendering overlays.

<!-- src/routes/[slug]/+page.svelte -->
<script lang="ts">
  import type { PageData } from './$types'
  import { useQuery } from '@sanity/svelte-loader'
  import { pageQuery, type PageResult } from '$lib/queries'

  export let data: PageData
  const { initial, params } = data;

  const query = useQuery<PageResult>(pageQuery, params, { initial })

  const studioUrl = 'https://my.sanity.studio'

  $: ({ data: page, loading, encodeDataAttribute } = $query)
</script>

{#if loading}
  <div>Loading...</div>
{:else}
  <h1 data-sanity={encodeDataAttribute(['title'])}>
    {page.title}
  </h1>
{/if}

Setup Visual Editing

Finally, we enable both live mode and overlays in the root layout component.

<!-- src/routes/+layout.svelte -->
<script lang="ts">
  import { onMount } from 'svelte'
  import { enableVisualEditing } from '@sanity/visual-editing'
  import { useLiveMode } from '@sanity/svelte-loader'
  import { client } from '$lib/sanity'
  import { PUBLIC_SANITY_STUDIO_URL } from '$env/static/public'

  onMount(() => enableVisualEditing())

  onMount(() => useLiveMode({
    // If `stega.studioUrl` was not provided to the client instance in `sanity.ts`, a studioUrl should be provided here
    studioUrl: PUBLIC_SANITY_STUDIO_URL
    // ...or alternatively provide the stega client directly
    // client: client.withConfig({
    //   stega: true
    // })
  }))
</script>

<div class="app">
  <slot />
</div>
