Local Logic SDKs JS (Beta)

Local Logic SDKs JS provides access to the next generation of Local Logic web SDKs.

Getting started

Installation

First, install with yarn, pnpm, or npm:

yarn add @local-logic/sdks-js

pnpm add @local-logic/sdks-js

npm i --save @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

Usage

You can now import LocalLogicSDK:

import LocalLogicSDK from "@local-logic/sdks-js";

const ll = LocalLogicSDK("<API_KEY>");

ℹ️ Your API_KEY should be provided to you by a Local Logic team member.

With the instance of LocalLogicSDK, you are now free to create new widgets:

// Code from previous step
// ...

/**
 * Create a container HTMLElement
 */
const container = document.createElement("div");
container.style.cssText = `
  height: 100vh;
  width: 100vw;
  display: flex;
`;
document.body.appendChild(container);

// Render Local Content into the container
ll.create("local-content", container, {
  lat: 45.52859,
  lng: -73.58785,
  marker: {
    lat: 45.52859,
    lng: -73.58785,
  },
});

Browser support

The SDKs are configured with Browserslist and @vitejs/plugin-legacy to support these browsers.

The SDKs will only serve polyfilled chunks only in legacy browsers without native ESM support. This keeps bundle sizes small for modern browsers.
