Svelte 5 - change component on login

I am trying to change component once the user is logged in, but so far I am not able to do this. Once I make successful login, component remains the same.

Link to the test repo

I have App.svelte component:

<script>

    import { fade } from 'svelte/transition'
    import { currentComponent } from './store/view.svelte';

    const loadComponent = currentComponent()

    $effect(() => {
        console.log(loadComponent);
    })

</script>


<div id="viewport" transition:fade>
    <svelte:component this={loadComponent.component}></svelte:component>
</div>

Login.svelte component

<script>
    import { currentComponent } from "../store/view.svelte";

    let email = $state('')
    let password = $state('')

    let test = currentComponent()

    /**
    * @param {{ preventDefault: () => void; }} event
    */
    async function submit(event){
        event.preventDefault()

        fetch('http://localhost:9555/api/login', {
            method: 'POST',
            headers: {
                'Accept': 'application/json',
                'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
            },
            body: JSON.stringify({
                email,
                password
            })
        })
            .then(resp => resp.json())
            .then(json => {
                localStorage.setItem('_token', json.token)

                test.updateComponent()
            })
    }
</script>
<div

                    </a>.
                </p>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

view.svelte.js:

import Restaurant from "../routes/Restaurant.svelte";
import Login from '../routes/Login.svelte';

export function currentComponent(){

    const _token = localStorage.getItem('_token')

    let authorized = $state(_token ? true : false)

    let component = $derived(!authorized ? Login : Restaurant)

    function updateComponent(){
        authorized = true
    }

    return {
        get authorized(){
            return authorized
        },
        set authorized(newValue){
            authorized = newValue
        },
        get component(){
            return component
        },
        updateComponent
    }

}

Once I update authorized (test.updateComponent() call), the component is updated in view.svelte.js but the new component is not rendered. What am I doing wrong here?

You are not changing the same instance, hence nothing happens.

You could e.g. do either of

• Make currentComponent a singleton, e.g.

  function createCurrentComponent() {
    // [old code]
  }
  
  export const currentComponent = createCurrentComponent();
  

  (Of course you then would not call currentComponent any more.)

• Create one instance at the root component and pass that around, e.g. via a context.

Also, for the fade to work, you would need something like this:

<div class="stack">
    {#key loadComponent.component}
        <div id="viewport" transition:fade>
            <svelte:component this={loadComponent.component} />
        </div>
    {/key}
</div>

<style>
    .stack { display: grid }
    .stack > * { grid-area: 1 / 1 }
</style>
