Castle Fingerprinting Script

Packaged version of Castle fingerprinting script.

Introduction

The Castle JavaScript automatically captures every user action in your web application, including clicks, taps, swipes, form submissions, and page views. We use this data to build profiles of good user behavior in order to detect the bad.

Installation

npm install --save @castleio/castle-js

yarn add @castleio/castle-js

Configuration

Basic configuration of the app

import * as Castle from '@castleio/castle-js'

Castle.configure(YOUR_CASTLE_APP_ID);

Advanced configuration of the app

// @param appId [string] castle app id.
// @option options [object] :window (default `window`) eg JSDOM.window
// @option options [boolean] :avoidCookies (default `false`) when true cookie storage will be avoided
// @option options [string] :cookieDomain (default topLevel domain) cookies domain scope

import * as Castle from '@castleio/castle-js'

Castle.configure(appId, options);

Usage

Getting castle request token

import * as Castle from '@castleio/castle-js'

Castle.createRequestToken().then( (requestToken) => {
  ....
});

// or
const requestToken = await Castle.createRequestToken();

See Castle Docs for more information and how to pass the token further.

browser version

If your environment does not support modules you can use the browser version

import '@castleio/castle-js/dist/castle.browser.js'

_castle('setAppId', YOUR_CASTLE_APP_ID);
_castle('createRequestToken').then( (requestToken) => {
  ....
});

Upgrade from 1.x script

Before

_castle('getClientId')

After

Castle.createRequestToken().then( (requestToken) => {
});
// or
const token = await Castle.createRequestToken();

No longer available commands for _castle(...) :

`autoForwardClientId`, 'autoTrack', `catchHistoryErrors`, `identify`, `setUserId`, `setAccount`, `setKey`, `setAccount`, `sessionId`, `reset`, `page`, `trackPageView`, `setTrackerUrl`

Request Token is now required to be passed in the request params and it is no longer available in the cookie. Check the docs
