| svelte/store |
The svelte/store module exports functions for creating readable, writable and derived stores.
Keep in mind that you don't have to use these functions to enjoy the reactive $store syntax in your components. Any object that correctly implements .subscribe, unsubscribe, and (optionally) .set is a valid store, and will work both with the special syntax, and with Svelte's built-in derived stores.
This makes it possible to wrap almost any other reactive state handling library for use in Svelte. Read more about the store contract to see what a correct implementation looks like.
writable
EXPORT_SNIPPET: svelte/store#writable
Function that creates a store which has values that can be set from 'outside' components. It gets created as an object with additional set and update methods.
set is a method that takes one argument which is the value to be set. The store value gets set to the value of the argument if the store value is not already equal to it.
update is a method that takes one argument which is a callback. The callback takes the existing store value as its argument and returns the new value to be set to the store.
/// file: store.js
import { writable } from 'svelte/store';
const count = writable(0);
count.subscribe((value) => {
console.log(value);
}); // logs '0'
count.set(1); // logs '1'
count.update((n) => n + 1); // logs '2'
If a function is passed as the second argument, it will be called when the number of subscribers goes from zero to one (but not from one to two, etc). That function will be passed a set function which changes the value of the store, and an update function which works like the update method on the store, taking a callback to calculate the store's new value from its old value. It must return a stop function that is called when the subscriber count goes from one to zero.
/// file: store.js
import { writable } from 'svelte/store';
const count = writable(0, () => {
console.log('got a subscriber');
return () => console.log('no more subscribers');
});
count.set(1); // does nothing
const unsubscribe = count.subscribe((value) => {
console.log(value);
}); // logs 'got a subscriber', then '1'
unsubscribe(); // logs 'no more subscribers'
Note that the value of a writable is lost when it is destroyed, for example when the page is refreshed. However, you can write your own logic to sync the value to for example the localStorage.
readable
EXPORT_SNIPPET: svelte/store#readable
Creates a store whose value cannot be set from 'outside', the first argument is the store's initial value, and the second argument to readable is the same as the second argument to writable.
import { readable } from 'svelte/store';
const time = readable(new Date(), (set) => {
set(new Date());
const interval = setInterval(() => {
set(new Date());
}, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
});
const ticktock = readable('tick', (set, update) => {
const interval = setInterval(() => {
update((sound) => (sound === 'tick' ? 'tock' : 'tick'));
}, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
});
derived
EXPORT_SNIPPET: svelte/store#derived
Derives a store from one or more other stores. The callback runs initially when the first subscriber subscribes and then whenever the store dependencies change.
In the simplest version, derived takes a single store, and the callback returns a derived value.
// @filename: ambient.d.ts
import { type Writable } from 'svelte/store';
declare global {
const a: Writable<number>;
}
export {};
// @filename: index.ts
// ---cut---
import { derived } from 'svelte/store';
const doubled = derived(a, ($a) => $a * 2);
The callback can set a value asynchronously by accepting a second argument, set, and an optional third argument, update, calling either or both of them when appropriate.
In this case, you can also pass a third argument to derived — the initial value of the derived store before set or update is first called. If no initial value is specified, the store's initial value will be undefined.
// @filename: ambient.d.ts
import { type Writable } from 'svelte/store';
declare global {
const a: Writable<number>;
}
export {};
// @filename: index.ts
// @errors: 18046 2769 7006
// ---cut---
import { derived } from 'svelte/store';
const delayed = derived(
a,
($a, set) => {
setTimeout(() => set($a), 1000);
},
2000
);
const delayedIncrement = derived(a, ($a, set, update) => {
set($a);
setTimeout(() => update((x) => x + 1), 1000);
// every time $a produces a value, this produces two
// values, $a immediately and then $a + 1 a second later
});
If you return a function from the callback, it will be called when a) the callback runs again, or b) the last subscriber unsubscribes.
// @filename: ambient.d.ts
import { type Writable } from 'svelte/store';
declare global {
const frequency: Writable<number>;
}
export {};
// @filename: index.ts
// ---cut---
import { derived } from 'svelte/store';
const tick = derived(
frequency,
($frequency, set) => {
const interval = setInterval(() => {
set(Date.now());
}, 1000 / $frequency);
return () => {
clearInterval(interval);
};
},
2000
);
In both cases, an array of arguments can be passed as the first argument instead of a single store.
// @filename: ambient.d.ts
import { type Writable } from 'svelte/store';
declare global {
const a: Writable<number>;
const b: Writable<number>;
}
export {};
// @filename: index.ts
// ---cut---
import { derived } from 'svelte/store';
const summed = derived([a, b], ([$a, $b]) => $a + $b);
const delayed = derived([a, b], ([$a, $b], set) => {
setTimeout(() => set($a + $b), 1000);
});
readonly
EXPORT_SNIPPET: svelte/store#readonly
This simple helper function makes a store readonly. You can still subscribe to the changes from the original one using this new readable store.
import { readonly, writable } from 'svelte/store';
const writableStore = writable(1);
const readableStore = readonly(writableStore);
readableStore.subscribe(console.log);
writableStore.set(2); // console: 2
// @errors: 2339
readableStore.set(2); // ERROR
get
EXPORT_SNIPPET: svelte/store#get
Generally, you should read the value of a store by subscribing to it and using the value as it changes over time. Occasionally, you may need to retrieve the value of a store to which you're not subscribed. get allows you to do so.
This works by creating a subscription, reading the value, then unsubscribing. It's therefore not recommended in hot code paths.
// @filename: ambient.d.ts
import { type Writable } from 'svelte/store';
declare global {
const store: Writable<string>;
}
export {};
// @filename: index.ts
// ---cut---
import { get } from 'svelte/store';
const value = get(store);
