Load

The generic form of PageLoad and LayoutLoad. You should import those from ./$types (see generated types) rather than using Load directly.

interface Load<
  Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>,
  InputData extends JSONObject | null = JSONObject | null,
  ParentData extends Record<string, any> | null = Record<string, any> | null,
  OutputData extends Record<string, any> = Record<string, any>
> {
  (
    event: LoadEvent<Params, InputData, ParentData>
  ): MaybePromise<OutputData | void>;
}

LoadEvent

interface LoadEvent<
  Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>,
  Data extends JSONObject | null = JSONObject | null,
  ParentData extends Record<string, any> | null = Record<string, any> | null
> {
  fetch(info: RequestInfo, init?: RequestInit): Promise<Response>;
  params: Params;
  data: Data;
  routeId: string | null;
  session: App.Session;
  setHeaders: (headers: ResponseHeaders) => void;
  url: URL;
  parent: () => Promise<ParentData>;
  depends: (...deps: string[]) => void;
}

Navigation

interface Navigation {
  from: URL;
  to: URL;
}

Page

interface Page<Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>> {
  url: URL;
  params: Params;
  routeId: string | null;
  status: number;
  error: HttpError | Error | null;
  data: Record<string, any>;
}

ParamMatcher

interface ParamMatcher {
  (param: string): boolean;
}

RequestEvent

interface RequestEvent<
  Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>
> {
  clientAddress: string;
  locals: App.Locals;
  params: Params;
  platform: Readonly<App.Platform>;
  request: Request;
  routeId: string | null;
  setHeaders: (headers: ResponseHeaders) => void;
  url: URL;
}

RequestHandler

A (event: RequestEvent) => Response function exported from a +server.js file that corresponds to an HTTP verb (GET, PUT, PATCH, etc) and handles requests with that method.

It receives Params as the first generic argument, which you can skip by using generated types instead.

interface RequestHandler<
  Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>
> {
  (event: RequestEvent<Params>): MaybePromise<Response>;
}

ResolveOptions

interface ResolveOptions {
  ssr?: boolean;
  transformPageChunk?: (input: {
    html: string;
    done: boolean;
  }) => MaybePromise<string | undefined>;
}

ResponseBody

type ResponseBody = JSONValue | Uint8Array | ReadableStream | Error;

SSRManifest

interface SSRManifest {
  appDir: string;
  assets: Set<string>;
  mimeTypes: Record<string, string>;
  /** private fields */  _: {
    entry: {
      file: string;
      imports: string[];
      stylesheets: string[];
    };
    nodes: SSRNodeLoader[];
    routes: SSRRoute[];
    matchers: () => Promise<Record<string, ParamMatcher>>;
  };
}

Server

class Server {
  constructor(manifest: SSRManifest);
  init(options: ServerInitOptions): void;
  respond(request: Request, options: RequestOptions): Promise<Response>;
}

ServerInitOptions

interface ServerInitOptions {
  env: Record<string, string>;
}

ServerLoad

The generic form of PageServerLoad and LayoutServerLoad. You should import those from ./$types (see generated types) rather than using ServerLoad directly.

interface ServerLoad<
  Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>,
  ParentData extends JSONObject | null = JSONObject | null,
  OutputData extends JSONObject | void = JSONObject | void
> {
  (event: ServerLoadEvent<Params, ParentData>): MaybePromise<OutputData | void>;
}

ServerLoadEvent

interface ServerLoadEvent<
  Params extends Record<string, string> = Record<string, string>,
  ParentData extends JSONObject | null = JSONObject | null
> extends RequestEvent<Params> {
  parent: () => Promise<ParentData>;
}

Additional types

The following are referenced by the public types documented above, but cannot be imported directly:

AdapterEntry

interface AdapterEntry {
  /**   * A string that uniquely identifies an HTTP service (e.g. serverless function) and is used for deduplication.   * For example, `/foo/a-[b]` and `/foo/[c]` are different routes, but would both   * be represented in a Netlify _redirects file as `/foo/:param`, so they share an ID   */  id: string;
  /**   * A function that compares the candidate route with the current route to determine   * if it should be treated as a fallback for the current route. For example, `/foo/[c]`   * is a fallback for `/foo/a-[b]`, and `/[...catchall]` is a fallback for all routes   */  filter: (route: RouteDefinition) => boolean;
  /**   * A function that is invoked once the entry has been created. This is where you   * should write the function to the filesystem and generate redirect manifests.   */  complete: (entry: {
    generateManifest: (opts: {
      relativePath: string;
      format?: 'esm' | 'cjs';
    }) => string;
  }) => MaybePromise<void>;
}

BodyValidator

type BodyValidator<T> = {
  [P in keyof T]: T[P] extends { [k: string]: unknown }

App

It's possible to tell SvelteKit how to type objects inside your app by declaring the App namespace. By default, a new project will have a file called src/app.d.ts containing the following:

/// <reference types="@sveltejs/kit" />

declare namespace App {
  interface Locals {}

  interface Platform {}

  interface PrivateEnv {}

  interface PublicEnv {}

  interface Session {}
}

By populating these interfaces, you will gain type safety when using env, event.locals, event.platform, session and stuff.

Note that since it's an ambient declaration file, you have to be careful when using import statements. Once you add an import at the top level, the declaration file is no longer considered ambient and you lose access to these typings in other files. To avoid this, either use the import(...) function:

interface Locals {
  user: import('$lib/types').User;
}

Or wrap the namespace with declare global:

import { User } from '$lib/types';

declare global {
  namespace App {
    interface Locals {
      user: User;
    }
    // ...  }
}

Locals

The interface that defines event.locals, which can be accessed in hooks (handle, handleError and getSession) and endpoints.

interface Locals {}

Platform

If your adapter provides platform-specific context via event.platform, you can specify it here.

interface Platform {}

PrivateEnv

The interface that defines the dynamic environment variables exported from $env/dynamic/private.

interface PrivateEnv extends Record<string, string> {}

PublicEnv

The interface that defines the dynamic environment variables exported from $env/dynamic/public.

interface PublicEnv extends Record<string, string> {}

Session

The interface that defines session, both as an argument to load functions and the value of the session store.

interface Session {}

Generated types

The RequestHandler and Load types both accept a Params argument allowing you to type the params object. For example this endpoint expects foo, bar and baz params:

src/routes/[foo]/[bar]/[baz]/+page.server.js
ts
/** @type {import('@sveltejs/kit').RequestHandler<{
 *   foo: string;
 *   bar: string;
 *   baz: string
 * }>} */
export async function GET({ params }) {
A function whose declared type is neither 'void' nor 'any' must return a value.2355A function whose declared type is neither 'void' nor 'any' must return a value.
  // ...
}

Needless to say, this is cumbersome to write out, and less portable (if you were to rename the [foo] directory to [qux], the type would no longer reflect reality).

To solve this problem, SvelteKit generates .d.ts files for each of your endpoints and pages:

.svelte-kit/types/src/routes/[foo]/[bar]/[baz]/$types.d.ts
import type * as Kit from '@sveltejs/kit';

interface RouteParams {
  foo: string;
  bar: string;
  baz: string;
}

export type PageServerLoad = Kit.ServerLoad<RouteParams>;
export type PageLoad = Kit.Load<RouteParams>;

These files can be imported into your endpoints and pages as siblings, thanks to the rootDirs option in your TypeScript configuration:

src/routes/[foo]/[bar]/[baz]/+page.server.js
ts
/** @type {import('./$types').PageServerLoad} */
export async function GET({ params }) {
  // ...
}
src/routes/[foo]/[bar]/[baz]/+page.js
ts
/** @type {import('./$types').PageLoad} */
export async function load({ params, fetch, session }) {
  // ...
}

For this to work, your own tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json should extend from the generated .svelte-kit/tsconfig.json (where .svelte-kit is your outDir):

{ "extends": "./.svelte-kit/tsconfig.json" }

Default tsconfig.json

The generated .svelte-kit/tsconfig.json file contains a mixture of options. Some are generated programmatically based on your project configuration, and should generally not be overridden without good reason:

.svelte-kit/tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "..",
    "paths": {
      "$lib": "src/lib",
      "$lib/*": "src/lib/*"
    },
    "rootDirs": ["..", "./types"]
  },
  "include": ["../src/**/*.js", "../src/**/*.ts", "../src/**/*.svelte"],
  "exclude": ["../node_modules/**", "./**"]
}

Others are required for SvelteKit to work properly, and should also be left untouched unless you know what you're doing:

.svelte-kit/tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    // this ensures that types are explicitly
    // imported with `import type`, which is
    // necessary as svelte-preprocess cannot
    // otherwise compile components correctly
    "importsNotUsedAsValues": "error",

    // Vite compiles one TypeScript module
    // at a time, rather than compiling
    // the entire module graph
    "isolatedModules": true,

    // TypeScript cannot 'see' when you
    // use an imported value in your
    // markup, so we need this
    "preserveValueImports": true,

    // This ensures both `vite build`
    // and `svelte-kit package` work correctly
    "lib": ["esnext", "DOM", "DOM.Iterable"],
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "module": "esnext",
    "target": "esnext"
  }
}
