Prerender detection

[redxtech]

Hello! Is there any way for the app to tell whether it's being prerendered? I know that in react-snap you can check with navigator.userAgent === 'ReactSnap', so I'm wondering if there's an equivalent for this prerenderer. Thanks :)

I must admit I haven't used this project in a while myself, but I believe this is possible. You should have a global window.SNAPSHOT = true injected into the page when running.

snapshotify/src/process-path.js

Line 36 in 3a6bc0d

window.SNAPSHOT = true; // eslint-disable-line no-undef

Yeah, this is documented in the README too:

Detecting snapshot

Sometimes, it may be necessary to detect if you are running in the snapshot mode, so that you can serve up alternative content. To enable this, a global window.SNAPSHOT variable is set to true when taking the snapshot.
