# React Chat.io

React component to integrate your application with Chat.io easily ;)

You can start your 14 days free trial here.

Pre requirements:

To use Chat.io in your application you need license_id.

You get one after creating account on our website.

You can check your license_id anytime here.

If you have difficulties finding your license_id please take a look at this screenshot.

Installation

All you have to do:

npm install react-chatio --save

Usage

Usage is very simple:

Import ChatIO component and put it in your render method:

import ChatIO from 'react-chatio'
 
...
 
<ChatIO license={your_license_id} />

You can change chat appearance here.

Methods

To begin with, you want to get your chat reference using onChatLoaded callback.

Example:

<ChatIO 
  onChatLoaded={ ref => this.chatio = ref }
  license={your_license_id} 
/>

Using this reference you can for example hide chat window:

Example:

this.chatio.hide_chat_window();
// is same as:
window.CHAT_API.hide_chat_window();

Table of all available methods:
