How can I access root data?

[oak oracle]

Which I’ve defined in root.data.ts

[dark glade]

Might need more detail, can you just export and import it where needed? What kind of data

[oak oracle]

@dark glade I've found that, in StartClient, it's checking for root.data.ts and if it exports default function for fetching data, it fetches it, but I can't find a way to access that data, useRouteData doesn't return it

[oak oracle]

@plain stone @hallow scroll maybe you know something about this? sorry for tagging

this is from solid-start/entry-client/StartClient.tsx

that dataFn is fed to StartRouter

#legacy-help message

const rootData = useData(0); this useData is no longer exported.

@steep wren maybe you know up to date way to access root data

I’m not sure, perhaps the router mechanic changed and I have no idea

[oak oracle]

maybe @wet compass knows how it can be used

[wet compass]

Right.. it is probably about where it is used. Technically useRouteData should return it, but the read might need to happen lower down... it also feeds into the data property of child routeData's

[oak oracle]

thanks for the response. I've tried using useRouteData almost everywhere, can't find that root data anywhere

[wet compass]

It gets passed through the routeData itself.. like you need to re-send it..

export const routeData = ({ data }) => 

[oak oracle]

got it, thanks!

[wet compass]

If there is no routeData for the route then it should just use that instead

[oak oracle]

What I was thinking was, that I have some external JSON for i18n, which holds language data. So I thought, I would've fetched it with root.data.ts and then pass it to i18n's provider via useRouteData.

[wet compass]

Where is the provider?

My gut here is if you have global context anyway there isn't much advantage in using the root data
