SvelteKit

Add the chat widget to a SvelteKit app from the root layout, in onMount, so it loads once in the browser.

Where it goes

On SvelteKit the snippet lives in src/routes/+layout.svelte, inside onMount. It is one script tag; it loads asynchronously and never blocks the page.

+layout.svelte
<script lang="ts">
  import { onMount } from "svelte";

  onMount(() => {
    const w = window as any;
    w.sellioSettings = { widgetKey: "your-widget-key" };
    w.SellioWidget = w.SellioWidget || [];
    const s = document.createElement("script");
    s.src = "https://sellio.chat/widget/embed.js";
    s.async = true;
    document.head.appendChild(s);
  });
</script>

<slot />

Replace your-widget-key with the key from Settings, then Install. The key is public and safe to commit: it names the workspace and carries no permissions.

Steps

  1. 1
    In Sellio, open Settings, then Install, and copy your widget key.
  2. 2
    In src/routes/+layout.svelte add the onMount block below. onMount only runs in the browser, so server rendering is untouched.
  3. 3
    After sign-in, call window.SellioWidget.setVisitor with the user's id, name and email.
  4. 4
    Run the app; the launcher should be in the bottom corner.

Identify visitors

When your site knows who is signed in, tell the widget so the inbox shows a name and email instead of a visitor id. Safe to call before the loader has finished; commands queue until it is ready.

identify.js
window.SellioWidget = window.SellioWidget || [];
window.SellioWidget.push(["setVisitor", {
  id: "your-user-id",
  name: "Ada Lovelace",
  email: "ada@example.com",
}]);

To stop anyone spoofing a name, sign the id on your server and pass it as userHash; see Identity verification.

Verify

Open the live site, send a message from the launcher, and check your inbox. If the launcher does not appear, the usual causes are a cache that still serves the old page, a visibility rule in Settings, then Visibility that hides it on this page or device, a domain missing from Allowed domains under Settings, then Install, or a snippet pasted into a page-level box rather than the site-wide one.
