Sveltweet (Svelte + Tweet)

The best way to embed tweets in your Svelte app, supporting both SSR and static prerendering modes.

  • The tweet is loaded in the server-side.
  • No need for any additonal client-side scripts.
  • No need for any loading UI, the tweet is available immediately.
  • Supports both SSR and prerendering.

Usage

SvelteKit

  1. Go to the tweet you want to embed. You will find the URL

  2. Use the getTweet function in your +page.server.ts file to fetch the tweet data.

    import { getTweet } from 'sveltweet/api';
    import { error } from '@sveltejs/kit';
    import type { RequestEvent } from './$types';
    
    export async function load({ params }: RequestEvent) {
        const { id } = params;
        try {
            const tweet = await getTweet(id);
    
            return { tweet };
        }
        catch {
            return error(500, 'Could not load tweet');
        }
    }
    
  3. Use the Tweet component in your +page.svelte file to render the tweet.

    <script lang='ts'>
        import { Tweet } from 'sveltweet';
        import type { PageData } from './$types';
    
        const { data }: { data: PageData } = $props()
    </script>
    
    <Tweet tweet={data.tweet} />
    

Svelte

<script lang='ts'>
    import { Tweet } from 'sveltweet';
    import { getTweet } from 'sveltweet/api';

    const id = '';
</script>

{#await getTweet(id) then tweet}
    <Tweet tweet={data.tweet} />
{/await}

Customisation

Tweet shares the same CSS file with react-tweet. So, refer to the Custom Theme section in the react-tweet documentation to customise the tweet appearance.
