What is @splitsoftware/splitio?

@splitsoftware/splitio is a feature flagging and experimentation platform that allows you to manage feature rollouts, run A/B tests, and perform real-time analytics. It helps in delivering features to users in a controlled manner, enabling you to test and iterate quickly.

What are @splitsoftware/splitio's main functionalities?

Feature Flagging

This feature allows you to manage feature flags, enabling or disabling features for specific users or groups. The code sample demonstrates how to initialize the Split.io client and check the status of a feature flag for a user.

const splitio = require('@splitsoftware/splitio');
const factory = splitio({ core: { authorizationKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY' } });
const client = factory.client();

client.on(client.Event.SDK_READY, () => {
  const treatment = client.getTreatment('user123', 'feature_flag_name');
  if (treatment === 'on') {
    // Feature is enabled
  } else {
    // Feature is disabled
  }
});

A/B Testing

This feature allows you to run A/B tests by assigning different treatments (variants) to users. The code sample shows how to determine which variant a user should see based on the experiment configuration.

const splitio = require('@splitsoftware/splitio');
const factory = splitio({ core: { authorizationKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY' } });
const client = factory.client();

client.on(client.Event.SDK_READY, () => {
  const treatment = client.getTreatment('user123', 'experiment_name');
  if (treatment === 'variant_a') {
    // Show variant A
  } else if (treatment === 'variant_b') {
    // Show variant B
  }
});

Real-time Analytics

This feature allows you to track user events and conversions in real-time. The code sample demonstrates how to track a purchase event for a user, which can be used for analytics and reporting.

const splitio = require('@splitsoftware/splitio');
const factory = splitio({ core: { authorizationKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY' } });
const client = factory.client();

client.on(client.Event.SDK_READY, () => {
  client.track('user123', 'conversion', 'purchase', 100);
});

README

Split SDK for JavaScript

Overview

This SDK is designed to work with Split, the platform for controlled rollouts, which serves features to your users via feature flags to manage your complete customer experience.

Compatibility

The JavaScript SDK is an isomorphic library for both Node.js and Web browser environments.

It supports Node.js version 14.x or later.

For browsers, the library was build to support ES5 syntax and all major browsers. However, there are a few polyfills that would be required when targeting old browsers that don't have native support for Promises, Map and Set global objects. You should include polyfills for those, like es6-promise for promises.

Getting started

Below is a simple Node.js example that describes the instantiation and most basic usage of our SDK:

// Import the SDK
var SplitFactory = require('@splitsoftware/splitio').SplitFactory;

// Instantiate the SDK
var factory = SplitFactory({
  core: {
    authorizationKey: 'YOUR_SDK_KEY'
  }
});

// Get the client instance you'll use
var client = factory.client();

// Set a callback to listen for the SDK_READY event, to make sure the SDK is properly loaded before asking for a treatment
client.on(client.Event.SDK_READY, function() {
  var treatment = client.getTreatment('CUSTOMER_ID', 'FEATURE_FLAG_NAME');
  if (treatment == 'on') {
    // insert code here for on treatment
  } else if (treatment == 'off') {
    // insert code here for off treatment
  } else {
    // insert your control treatment code here
  }
});

Please refer to JavaScript SDK (client-side) or Node.js SDK (server-side) to learn about all the functionality provided by our SDK as well as specifics for each environment and the configuration options available for tailoring it to your current application setup.
