const [share, close] = createSocialShare(() => ({
  title: "SolidJS.com",
  url: "https://www.solidjs.com",
  description: "Simple and well-behaved reactivity!",
}));
share(BLUESKY);

Definition

function createSocialShare(
  options: Accessor<{
    network?: Network;
    url: string;
    title: string;
    description: string;
    quote?: string;
    hashtags?: string;
    twitterUser?: string;
    media?: string;
    tag?: string;
    popup?: SharePopupOptions;
  }>,
  controller: Window = window,
): [share: (network: Network | undefined) => void, close: () => void, isSharing: Accessor<boolean>];

Network List

The following are a list of supported networks that may be imported from the share package.

For the networks: Bluesky, Line, Skype, SMS, Telegram, Viber, WhatsApp and Yammer; the shared content is a string of the form: "$title $url $description"

Note that you can also provide your own custom network by formatting the input string into the share function. The following is a list of properties that will be replaced by the utility:

• @u: URL
• @t: Title
• @d: Description
• @q: Quote
• @h: Hashtags
• @m: Media
• @tu: X User (X specific)

The following is an example of X's share string:

const x: Network = "https://www.x.com/intent/tweet?text=@t&url=@u&hashtags=@h@tu";

Demo

You may view a working example here on Stackblitz.
