SvelteKit

SvelteKit is the official application framework from the Svelte team. This guide walks you through deploying SvelteKit sites to Edgio.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding, you will need an Edgio property. Create one now if you do not already have one.
Learn how to create a property.

System Requirements

Sign up for Edgio

Deploying requires an account on Edgio. Sign up here for free.

Install the Edgio CLI

If you have not already done so, install the Edgio CLI.
Bash
1npm i -g @edgio/cli@latest

Create Your Sveltekit App

If you don’t have an existing SvelteKit app, you can create one by running:
Bash
1npm create svelte@latest my-svelte-app
To use the default app, make the following selections when prompted:
plaintext
1◆ Which Svelte app template?
2  ❯ SvelteKit demo app (A demo app showcasing some of the features of SvelteKit - play a word guessing game that works without JavaScript!)
3◆ Add type checking with TypeScript?
4  ❯ Yes, using JavaScript with JSDoc comments
5◆ Select additional options (use arrow keys/space bar)
6  ❯ none
Install all dependencies of your new project by running:
Bash
1cd my-svelte-app
2npm install

Initializing Your Project

Initialize your project for use with Edgio by running the following command in your project’s root directory:
Bash
1edgio init --connector=@edgio/sveltekit --edgioVersion latest
This will automatically add all of the required dependencies and files to your project. These include:
  • The @edgio/core package
  • The @edgio/cli package
  • The @edgio/prefetch package - Allows you to configure a service worker to prefetch and cache pages to improve browsing speed
  • The @edgio/sveltekit package
  • edgio.config.js - Contains various configuration options for Edgio.
  • routes.js - A default routes file that adds routes for pre-rendered pages, assets and sends all unmatched requests to the SvelteKit server. Update this file to add caching or proxy some URLs to a different origin.

Routing

The default routes.js file created by edgio init sends all requests to SvelteKit server via a fallback route.
JavaScript
1// This file was added by edgio init.
2// You should commit this file to source control.

4const {Router} = require('@edgio/core/router');
5const {svelteKitRoutes} = require('@edgio/sveltekit');
6

7export default new Router().use(svelteKitRoutes);
Refer to the CDN-as-code guide for the full syntax of the routes.js file and how to configure it for your use case.

Run the Sveltekit App Locally on Edgio

Create a production build of your app by running the following in your project’s root directory:
Bash
1npm run build
Test your app with the Sites on your local machine by running the following command in your project’s root directory:
Bash
1edgio dev
Load the site http://127.0.0.1:3000

Deploying

Create a production build of your app by running the following in your project’s root directory:
Bash
1npm run build
Deploy your app to the Sites by running the following command in your project’s root directory:
