Getting started

Installation

First, install the entry script with npm, yarn, or pnpm:

npm i --save @local-logic/sdks-js
yarn add @local-logic/sdks-js
pnpm add @local-logic/sdks-js

The script is also available in umd and es format from the Local Logic CDN: https://sdk.locallogic.co/sdks-js/<VERSION>/index.<FORMAT>.js

<VERSION> is the latest script version number (which you can find on npm), and <FORMAT> is either umd or es.

<script
  async
  src="https://sdk.locallogic.co/sdks-js/1.20.9/index.umd.js"
  onload="myInitLocalNeighborhoodMatchFunc()"
></script>

Usage

Step 1: Instantiate an LLSDKsJS instance

Import LLSDKsJS and create a new localLogicSDK instance. If you installed LLSDKsJS using a script tag, you must access it from the window object.

import LLSDKsJS from "@local-logic/sdks-js";
const localLogicSDK = LLSDKsJS(
  // Your API key or token
    <API_KEY>
);

You can authenticate your SDK using an API key or OAuth token. The method you choose depends on your environment; if your page is using server-side rendering (SSR), the OAuth token may be preferrable. If you have a single-page application (SPA), you will likely want to use the API key since the CLIENT_SECRET needed to generate the OAuth token should never be exposed in a client-side environment.

If you authenticate using the token you need to prefix it with Bearer.

Step 2: Instantiate a SDK instance

Next, create an instance of the NeighborhoodMatch SDK. You must define a container element for it to render into.

Example

// Define a container element
const container = document.createElement("div");
container.style.cssText = `
  height: 100%;
  width: 100vw;
  display: flex;
`;
const neighborhoodLocation = {
  lat: 37.8,
  lng: -122.4,
};
document.body.appendChild(container);
localLogicSDK.create("local-neighborhood-match", container, {
  ...neighborhoodLocation,
});

React applications

The SDKs are designed to work with React and other declarative frameworks.

Example

import { useRef, useEffect } from "react";
import LLSDKsJS from "@local-logic/sdks-js";
const localLogicSDK = LLSDKsJS(<API_KEY>);
function LocalNeihborhoodMatch() {
  const containerRef = useRef(null);
  useEffect(() => {
    if (!containerRef.current) {
      return;
    }
    const myLocation = {
      lat: 45.5282164,
      lng: -73.5978527,
    };
    const neighborhoodMatch = localLogicSDK.create(
      "local-neighborhood-match",
      containerRef.current, {
        ...myLocation,
      }
    );
    // It is important to destroy the instance when the component is unmounted.
    return () => {
      neighborhoodMatch.destroy();
    }
  }, []);
  return (
    <div
      ref={containerRef}
      style={{
        height: "100%",
        width: "100vw",
      }}
    />
  );
}
export default LocalNeihborhoodMatch;

Vanilla Javascript

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>NeighborhoodWrap Page Javascript Example</title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <script
      async
      src="https://sdk.locallogic.co/sdks-js/1.20.9/index.umd.js"
      onload="neighborhoodMatch()"
    ></script>
    <style>
      #widgetMap {
        height: 100%;
        width: 100%;
      }
    </style>
    <div id="neighborhoodMatchContainer"></div>
    <script>
      function neighborhoodMatch() {
        (async () => {
          // Your API key or token
          const ll = LLSDKsJS("<API_KEY>", {
            locale: "en", // Change to either english or french
          });
          const container = document.createElement("div");
          container.setAttribute("id", "LocalNeihborhoodMatch");
          // Set the styles of the container
          // The widget needs to have an adaptable height because it expands to fit the content
          container.style.cssText = `
            height: 100%;
            width: 100%;
            display: flex;
          `;
          // This is the div that will contain the widget
          document.querySelector("#neighborhoodMatchContainer").appendChild(container);
          // Set the lat and lng of the location
          const LAT = 45.528126;
          const LNG = -73.598104;
          const localMatch = ll.create("local-neighborhood-match", container, {
            lat: LAT,
            lng: LNG,
          });
        })();
      }
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Functions

For more information on the different functions available with the SDK, please view our NPM packages documentation.

.update()

The update method is used to update the widget with new values. This can be useful when, for example, you want to change the widget location.

Example:

neighborhoodMatch.update({
  lat: 43.686941,
  lng: -79.463814,
});

Browser support

The SDKs are configured with to support these browsers.

Versioning

The SDKs are designed to receive most new changes (non-breaking features and bug fixes) without the need for a developer to manually update the script.

TypeScript

Local Logic SDKs JS comes packaged with TypeScript declarations.

FAQ

Q: How do I change the language of the SDK?

A: You can change the language by specifying locale in the LLSDKsJS options. The supported options are "en" and "fr".

const ll = LocalLogicSDK(
    // Your API key or token
      <API_KEY>,
    {
      locale: "fr",
    });
