Component directives

on:eventname

<!--- copy: false --->
on:eventname={handler}

Components can emit events using createEventDispatcher or by forwarding DOM events.

<script>
	import { createEventDispatcher } from 'svelte';

	const dispatch = createEventDispatcher();
</script>

<!-- programmatic dispatching -->
<button on:click={() => dispatch('hello')}> one </button>

<!-- declarative event forwarding -->
<button on:click> two </button>

Listening for component events looks the same as listening for DOM events:

<SomeComponent on:whatever={handler} />

As with DOM events, if the on: directive is used without a value, the event will be forwarded, meaning that a consumer can listen for it.

<SomeComponent on:whatever />

--style-props

<!--- copy: false --->
--style-props="anycssvalue"

You can also pass styles as props to components for the purposes of theming, using CSS custom properties.

Svelte's implementation is essentially syntactic sugar for adding a wrapper element. This example:

<Slider bind:value min={0} --rail-color="black" --track-color="rgb(0, 0, 255)" />

Desugars to this:

<div style="display: contents; --rail-color: black; --track-color: rgb(0, 0, 255)">
	<Slider bind:value min={0} max={100} />
</div>

Note: Since this is an extra <div>, beware that your CSS structure might accidentally target this. Be mindful of this added wrapper element when using this feature.

For SVG namespace, the example above desugars into using <g> instead:

<g style="--rail-color: black; --track-color: rgb(0, 0, 255)">
	<Slider bind:value min={0} max={100} />
</g>

Note: Since this is an extra <g>, beware that your CSS structure might accidentally target this. Be mindful of this added wrapper element when using this feature.

Svelte's CSS Variables support allows for easily themeable components:

<style>
	.potato-slider-rail {
		background-color: var(--rail-color, var(--theme-color, 'purple'));
	}
</style>

So you can set a high-level theme color:

/* global.css */
html {
	--theme-color: black;
}

Or override it at the consumer level:

<Slider --rail-color="goldenrod" />

bind:property

bind:property={variable}

You can bind to component props using the same syntax as for elements.

<Keypad bind:value={pin} />

While Svelte props are reactive without binding, that reactivity only flows downward into the component by default. Using bind:property allows changes to the property from within the component to flow back up out of the component.

bind:this

<!--- copy: false --->
bind:this={component_instance}

Components also support bind:this, allowing you to interact with component instances programmatically.

<ShoppingCart bind:this={cart} />

<button on:click={() => cart.empty()}> Empty shopping cart </button>

Note that we can't do {cart.empty} since cart is undefined when the button is first rendered and throws an error.
