SSR for Todo demo.

[jafioti]

This is not exactly a bug, but there seems to be no clear answer on the Discord server, so I will ask here. I am using the sycamore-rocket-template project, and am trying to re-create the todo demo in it. Since it uses SSR, it complains that the Location object used for saving/loading todo lists is only available on wasm targets.

How can this be worked around? What is the recommended way of solving this, when doing SSR and using wasm-only functions? Is there a way to only use SSR for certain routes?

Right now on the latest release (v0.6.3), the way to do this is a bit obscene:

if TypeId::of::<G>() == TypeId::of::<DomNode>() { ... }

What this does is basically check if the type of G (the rendering backend) is the browser DOM (DomNode), thereby executing the branch only when in the browser.

You can put your browser only code in there (such as accessing Location).

Once #274 is merged, this will be a bit clearer with:

if G::IS_BROWSER { ... }

Please feel free to reopen if this doesn't answer your question.

Ok awesome! I eagerly await that merge!
