Svelte-plotly.js NPM

Plotly.js for Svelte

This is an unofficial package that lets you efficiently use plotly.js inside your Svelte or SvelteKit app.

Usage

Install using yarn add svelte-plotly.js or npm install svelte-plotly.js.
Choose a Plotly distribution:
- If you want to use plotly.js-dist, just install it.
- If you want to use a different distribution, take a look at this section.
Use in your app:

<script lang="ts">
  import Plot from 'svelte-plotly.js';

  const data = [
    {
      x: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
      y: [1, 2, 4, 8, 16]
    }
  ];
</script>

<Plot
  {data}
  layout={{
    margin: { t: 0 }
  }}
  fillParent='width'
  debounce={250}
/>

Custom Plotly distribution

Let's say you want to use svelte-plotly.js with a custom Plotly.js distribution, for example plotly.js-basic-dist-min. If you use Vite for bundling, the recommended way to do this would be to install plotly.js-basic-dist-min and then register it as an alias for plotly.js-dist by adding the following to your vite.config.js:

resolve: {
  alias: {
    "plotly.js-dist": "plotly.js-basic-dist-min",
    lodash: "lodash-es",
  },
},

If you don't use Vite, or this approach doesn't work for you, you can also use the libPlotly prop of the Plotly component:

<script lang="ts">
  import Plot from 'svelte-plotly.js';
  import libPlotly from 'plotly.js-basic-dist-min';
</script>

<Plot {libPlotly} ... />
