For sapper server-side rendering and using external components, install it to devDependencies:

Usage

<script>
  import Lazy from 'svelte-lazy';
</script>

<Lazy height={300}>
  <img alt="" src="https://picsum.photos/id/412/200/300" />
</Lazy>

Demo on svelte.dev/repl.

Props

• height: Number|String Default: 0. Height of the component before load.

  Set a proper value to avoid scroll bounce. One way is to use the content height which can be mensured by the inspector in the devTool after load.

• offset: Number Default: 150. Offset to the bottom of the viewport that triggers loading when the component is in the scope.

The Number value uses px as unit.

• placeholder: String|Component Default: null. Placeholder before load.

• placeholderProps: Object Default null. When using a component as a placeholder, the props will be passed to it.

• class: String Default: ''. Additional class for the container div. It will be svelte-lazy ${class}.

• fadeOption: Object Default: { delay: 0, duration: 400 }. Option for the fade in transition. Set null to disable it.

• onload: Function (node) => {} Default: null. Fucntion that is called when loaded.

• resetHeightDelay: Number Default: 0 (milliseconds). Delay to reset the component height to auto after loaded. Might be useful to wait for remote resources like images.
