Window is not available on static site generators.

See original GitHub issue

Description

I am running the KedroViz react component inside of a gatsby application. When doing so I get an error that window is not available. To resolve this I need to implement a componentDidMount method, and only render KedroViz after the component did mount.

Is it possible to check if window is available before using it? The Error came from config.js#L7, appears to me that it could check for window before using it.

Context

I am running KedroViz 3.2.0, I believe that this is in all versions, and is not related to the new release.

📈 Running Site

👨‍💻 index.js

Actual Result

The error occurred in config.js#L7. Without understanding KedroViz further I cannot say that it would not error on other windows. I do see 8 instances of window just by searching the repo.

👏 Thanks

Thanks for open sourcing everything and making such an amazing set of tools!!

Cheers! I’m actually going to reopen this issue because I think it’s worth fixing properly. I’ll contact the maintainer of svg-crowbar and see whether they can patch that code too.

@WaylonWalker this should now be fixed on the develop branch, and will be fixed in the upcoming release.
