svienna-meetup-package-demo v1.0.2

svienna-meetup-package-demo

This package is the result of a talk by Ivan Hofer at the first Svelte Society Austria Meetup on July 4th 2022.

This repository demonstrates how easily a component library can be created with the help of SvelteKit.

This package contains:

• a custom Button component that wraps a HTMLButtonElement and adds a loading prop. The Button is also strongly typed.
• an action that can be used on a HTMLParagraphElement to limit the amount of characters shown.

  	> Please don't use this action in a productive application with SSR enabled. Use the CSS [`text-overflow: ellipsis`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/text-overflow) instead.

• a variables.scss file that contains a color variable that can be used inside other projects.

To let SvelteKit create the npm-package, you need to execute the npm run package command. This will export everything inside the src/lib folder into the package folder.

The package command will preprocess all .svelte and .ts files and create a corresponding .d.ts file so those components and function can also be used in plain JavaScript projects. All other files will just be copied over. The README.md file also gets copied from the main repository. SvelteKit will also create a package.json file that contains all the information needed to publish the package. The package can be released to npm by executing npm publish inside the package folder.
