Visual Controller for Svelte (@peter.naydenov/visual-controller-for-svelte3)

NOTE: After version 2.0.2 the library works with Svelte 4. Product is not changed, just the dependency. If you need version 3 of Svelte, use version 2.0.1 of this library.

!license

Tool for building a micro-frontends(MFE) based on Svelte components - Start multiple Svelte applications in the same HTML page and control them.

Install visual controller:
``
npm i @peter.naydenov/visual-controller-for-svelte3
`

Initialization process:
`js
// for es6 module projects:
import notice from '@peter.naydenov/notice' // event emitter by your personal choice.
import VisualController from '@peter.naydenov/visual-controller-for-svelte3'

// for commonjs projects:
const notice = require('@peter.naydenov/notice')
const VisualController = require('@peter.naydenov/visual-controller-for-svelte3')

let
eBus = notice ()
, dependencies = { eBus } // Provide everything that should be exposed to components
, html = new VisualController ( dependencies )
;
// Ready for use...
`

Let's show something on the screen:
`js
// Let's have svelte component 'Hello' with prop 'greeting'

html.publish ( Hello, {greeting:'Hi'}, 'app' )
//arguments are: ( component, props, containerID )
`

Inside of the Components

Note: If your component should be displayed only, that section can be skipped.

All provided libraries during visualController initialization are available if you export variable with name dependencies. Export also setupUpdates if you need to manipulate component

`js

let msg = 'Vite + Svelte'
export let dependencies, setupUpdates;
const { eBus } = dependencies

setupUpdates ({ // Provides to visualContoller method 'changeMessage'
changeMessage (update) {
msg = update
}
})
`

The external call will look like this:

`js
html.getApp ( 'app' ).changeMessage ( 'New message content' )
`
