How to build/export $error.svelte / 404 page with adapter-static ?

[gevera]

After running npm run build with adapter-static I hoped that the $error.svelte page would be generated as well. When statically hosted and whenever a non-existent route is hit, Sveltkit would redirect to the 404.html page.

With Sapper we just added to package.json a couple of lines

"build:export": "sapper export --entry \"/ /404\"",
"postexport": "mv __sapper__/export/404/index.html __sapper__/export/404.html"

I wonder how it is done with Sveltekit. Thanks

This is highly related to #754 and possibly a duplicate of that issue

Thanks for pointing it out. I believe it is a duplicate indeed. Hopefully, the fallback feature will be implemented soon.

And what about /404 for non-SPA? Unless I misunderstand it completely, providing a fallback will disable SSR, whereas Sapper would simply render and write an additional page. Can the latter somehow be replicated?

This is a good question. After yesterday release of "@sveltejs/adapter-node": "next" and reading the docs, I came to a conclusion that this is not a viable solution for SSR where a simple one extra 404.html page is needed. Is there a way we could reopen this bug?

I think it'd be better to file a new issue about that
