The browser client for consent.software: it stores a visitor's accepted cookie levels in IndexedDB and runs the consent tuples configured for a domain. It is the client behind the consentsoftware-cookieconsent element of @consent.software/catalog, and works in any web project, with or without a framework.

Install

pnpm add @consent.software/webclient

Usage

import { CsWebclient } from '@consent.software/webclient';

const csWebclient = new CsWebclient();

// after the visitor made a choice
await csWebclient.setCookieLevels(['functional', 'analytics']);

// on later page loads
if (await csWebclient.isCookieLevelStillValid()) {
  await csWebclient.getAndRunConsentTuples();
}

API

CsWebclient keeps its state in a @push.rocks/webstore WebStore (IndexedDB) with the database name consentsoftware and the store name webclient, under the key acceptedCookieLevels. The stored record is an IWebclientSettings from @consent.software/interfaces: { acceptanceTimestamp: number; acceptedCookieLevels: TCookieLevel[] }, where TCookieLevel is 'functional' | 'analytics' | 'marketing' | 'all'.

Method	Description
`setCookieLevels(cookieLevelsArg: TCookieLevel[]): Promise<boolean>`	Stores the accepted levels with the current time as `acceptanceTimestamp`; resolves `true`.
`getCookieLevels(): Promise<TCookieLevel[]>`	Resolves the stored levels, or `undefined` when no choice is stored.
`isCookieLevelSet(): Promise<boolean>`	Resolves whether a choice is stored.
`isCookieLevelStillValid(): Promise<boolean>`	Resolves `true` when a choice is stored and was made within the last three months (`getMilliSecondsFromUnits({ months: 3 })` from `@push.rocks/smarttime`); `false` otherwise, including when nothing is stored.
`getAndRunConsentTuples(domainArg?: string): Promise<void>`	Fetches the domain settings for `domainArg` (default `window.location.hostname`) with a `getDomainSettings` typed request to `https://connect.api.global/consentsoftware`, then runs every consent tuple whose level is `functional` or one of the accepted levels, passing it its `scriptExecutionDataArg` and the accepted levels. Logs and returns without a request when no choice is stored; throws when a tuple script is not a function.

The webstore property exposes the underlying WebStore, for example to close() it.
