svelte-countdown

A simple css-agnostic countdown component for Svelte 3 with just 1 dependency!

Installation 🔧

First you need a Svelte 3 project. Its starter template lives at https://github.com/sveltejs/template.

Then install the component by running the following command in your project's directory:

npm install svelte-countdown

Features ❤

• Only 1 dependency! dayjs
• Support for timezones & DST
• done key to simplify what to show once the countdown is finished

Why not momentjs ?

dayjs is a modern alternative to momentjs with compatible Api. The main difference is that dayjs is tree shakeable which leaves a really tiny footprint to your bundle (aka loads faster). If you're still using momentjs in your project I'd suggest you take a look at dayjs. In most cases if you just switch packages and import {dayjs as moment} you won't have to change any of your code.

How to use 🚀

1. First import the component on your svelte page's script section.

import Countdown from 'svelte-countdown/src/index.js'

2. Call the component where you want it to be placed e.g.:

<Countdown from="2020-11-09 09:30:00" dateFormat="YYYY-MM-DD H:m:s" zone="Europe/Athens" let:remaining>
    <div class="whatever">
        {#if remaining.done === false}
        <span>{remaining.years} years</span>
        <span>{remaining.months} months</span>
        <span>{remaining.weeks} weeks</span>
        <span>{remaining.days} days</span>
        <span>{remaining.hours} hours</span>
        <span>{remaining.minutes} minutes</span>
        <span>{remaining.seconds} seconds</span>
        {:else}
        <h2>The time has come!</h2>
        {/if}
    </div>
</Countdown>

In the slot space between <Countdown></Countdown> you can write your template however you like. Use the keys as per the example above.

I recommend not to change the "remaining" object name. If you need to you can do it like so:

let:remaining={yourvariable}

Configuration Options

The Cons ❌

• No callback, I suppose the done key is enough. Will update upon request.
• No milliseconds counting. Will update upon request.
• Tests - It's pretty straight forward but feel free to contribute.
• No Demo Page - Will do.
