Local dev environment about svelte-gantt

[ANovokmet]

Sorry for the outdated docs. For development using the demo it is best to run two scripts: npm run autobuild to build svelte-gantt and npm run demo:dev to build and serve the demo at localhost:5000

Thank you for your reply @ANovokmet. I'm still unable to make it run due to the missing global variable names warning/error. In the browser console, it throws svelteRouting is not defined error. Am I missing something?

I also noticed that if I remove demo:autobuild from this script "demo:dev": "run-p demo:start demo:autobuild" then I can run the demo project at localhost:5000 but I'm sure that is an outdated build as index.js there doesn't have svelteRouting and svelteGantt IIFE args.

Did you try running npm install in demo/ directory?

[ManadayM]

Yes, I did that. I received a compiler.js related error after that and to fix that I found I should rollup-plugin-svelte to at least version 6.1.1. I did that as well. Now, I see further warnings and errors in the terminal but am also able to run the demo project locally.

This is how my terminal output looks like.

Below are the setup steps I have performed to run this project locally (with some warnings).

1. npm install in the root directory.
2. npm run build in the root directory. This will generate the build artifacts in the dist directory.
3. npm install inside demo directory.
4. npm i [email protected] inside demo directory to upgrade the plugin version to fix the compiler.js related error.
5. npm run autobuild from the root.
6. npm run demo:dev from the root.

Please let me know if these steps are correct or not. I've fairly limited experience with both Svelte and Rollup as of now. I hope to improve at both of them and contribute back.

Once again thank you for your help @ANovokmet.

Cloned into a new folder to test.
I did everything the same as you but except 2. which I didn't do, and as 4. I used npm i -D rollup-plugin-svelte@latest which fixed the error. And I'm getting no errors there. And then the demo is served at http://localhost:5000/svelte-gantt/. With no Reference errors in the console.

Installing the latest rollup plugin for Svelte fixed the remaining issues. Now, I am able to run the demo project. Thank you for your great help. 🙏🏼
