Server

const result = Component.render(...)

Unlike client-side components, server-side components don't have a lifespan after you render them — their whole job is to create some HTML and CSS. For that reason, the API is somewhat different.

A server-side component exposes a render method that can be called with optional props. It returns an object with head, html, and css properties, where head contains the contents of any <svelte:head> elements encountered.

You can import a Svelte component directly into Node using svelte/register.

require('svelte/register');

const App = require('./App.svelte').default;

const { head, html, css } = App.render({
  answer: 42,
});

The .render() method accepts the following parameters:

The options object takes in the following options:

const { head, html, css } = App.render(
  // props
  { answer: 42 },
  // options
  {
    context: new Map([['context-key', 'context-value']]),
  },
);
