Installation

1 Create Database

Create a free Redis database at Upstash Console

We will use Upstash Redis to keep the data as well as messaging (Redis pub/sub).

2. Environment Variables

Copy the .env.local.example file to .env.local (which will be ignored by Git):

cp .env.local.example .env.local

UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL and UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN can be found at the database details page in Upstash Console.

3. Install Package

npm install --save svelte-claps
# or
yarn add svelte-claps

4. Setup API

Create a new API endpoint for SvelteKit app. Import the package and expose the GET and PATCH methods.

// src/routes/api/claps.js

import createClapsApi from 'svelte-claps';

export const { GET, PATCH } = createClapsApi({ maxClaps: 10 });

5. Use <Claps /> Component

<script lang="ts">
	import { Claps } from 'svelte-claps';
</script>

<div class="container">
	<Claps replyUrl="https://twitter.com/bufgix_" />
</div>

The options can be passed as React props

pathname of the page is being used as the key/identity to keep the claps count. You can override this giving the key attribute.
