[Chartjs]-Using Chart.js with SvelteKit

Vite causes this. It’s both sveltekit’s greathest strength and weakest link.

Just add these lines to the config object within your svelte.config.js file and you should be fine :

const config = {
    kit: {
        // ...
        vite: {
            ssr:{
                noExternal: ['chart.js']
            }
        }
    }
    
};

addition to Tonton-blax awnser. The vite docs say ‘Prevent listed dependencies from being externalized for SSR. If true, no dependencies are externalized.’. So how i read it is that the dependency is accessible on the server side.

const config = {
    kit: {
        // ...
        vite: {
            ssr:{
                noExternal: ['chart.js']
            }
        }
    }
    
};
