Svelte Pagedjs
Svelte pagedjs
is a Svelte wrapper for the PagedJS library that enables sophisticated web-based PDF-like pagination and print layouts. It seamlessly integrates PagedJS's functionality with Svelte's reactive paradigm.
Key Features
1. Dynamic Pagination
Transform your web content into a paginated format with minimal configuration:
<Pagedjs>
<article>
<h1>Your Content</h1>
<p>Will be automatically paginated...</p>
</article>
</Pagedjs>
2. Content Editing
Enable in-place editing of your paginated content:
<Pagedjs enableContentEditable={true}>
<!-- Content becomes editable after rendering -->
</Pagedjs>
3. Responsive Layout
Automatic content scaling and repositioning for different screen sizes:
<Pagedjs
autoResize={true}
scaleWidth={0.9}
>
<!-- Content automatically scales -->
</Pagedjs>
4. Performance Monitoring
Built-in performance metrics to track rendering efficiency:
<Pagedjs showMetrics={true}>
<!-- Metrics will display after rendering -->
</Pagedjs>
Architecture
svelte-pagedjs is built on three main components:
- PagedjsManager: Singleton class managing PagedJS initialization and rendering
- Pagedjs Component: Main Svelte component handling content and configuration
- Metrics Component: Optional performance metrics display
Use Cases
- Digital Publishing
- Print Layout Preview
- Document Generation
- Magazine/Book Layout
- Academic Papers
- Technical Documentation
Getting Started
- Install the package:
npm install svelte-pagedjs pagedjs
- Import and use in your Svelte app:
<script>
import { Pagedjs } from 'svelte-pagedjs';
</script>
<Pagedjs>
<!-- Your content -->
</Pagedjs>
Server-Side Rendering
svelte-pagedjs is designed to work seamlessly with SSR:
- Uses
esm-env
for browser detection - Safely handles initialization in server environment
- Hydrates content properly on client side
Performance Considerations
The library includes several optimizations:
- Lazy initialization of PagedJS
- Efficient cleanup of resources
- Performance monitoring
- Memory leak prevention
Browser Support
Supports all modern browsers with:
- CSS Custom Properties
- CSS Grid Layout
- Modern JavaScript features
