Sveltekit Sse

Overview:

The SvelteKit SSE library is a tool that allows developers to easily produce and consume server sent events. It provides a solution for those who may not be able to serve http2 responses, allowing them to use the same http1 connection to emit multiple events. Additionally, developers can transform the stream into any type of object on the client side using the source::select::transform method.

Features:

• Easy to use: Provides a simple and straightforward way to produce and consume server sent events.
• Multiple events: Allows for emitting multiple events using the same http1 connection, even if http2 responses cannot be served.
• Transform stream: Enables developers to transform the stream into different object types on the client side using the source::select::transform method.
• Custom headers: Supports setting custom headers, such as the Authorization header, on the client side using fetch.
• Reconnect functionality: Allows for reconnecting to the stream whenever it closes by invoking Event::connect.

Installation:

To install the SvelteKit SSE library, use the following command:

npm i -D sveltekit-server-sent-events

Make sure to have npm installed before running this command.

Summary:

The SvelteKit SSE library provides an easy way to produce and consume server sent events. It allows developers to emit multiple events using the same http1 connection and transform the stream on the client side. With support for custom headers and the ability to reconnect to the stream, this library offers a versatile solution for working with server sent events.
