@transferwise/cookie-consent-js
Advanced tools
Cookie consent mechanism to be shown to all EU users across transferwise.com
This package generates a webjar to be served by our cookie-consent-service.
To include the consent mechanism on your page, simply add a script tag to your page:
<script src="/cookie-consent.js"></script>
For as long as your page is served from transferwise.com
you should now see the cookie consent mechanism on your page.
The script itself includes all necessary CSS. One caveat is that the page must provide the TransferWise brand fonts:
font-family: averta, avenir w02, avenir, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
The cookie banner will look for the locale to use in the following places, in order:
localeData
cookiewindow.config.lang
window.navigator.language
en
It uses the first 2 characters of the locale string as the language. In most cases, the locale will just be a 2-letter string. If it finds a 5-character language+country string, it will use the first 2 characters of that e.g. es-ES
=> es
.
To setup the development environment, first run yarn start
to start the server. This will serve index.html
from localhost:5000
.
To build the dist and watch the source files for changes, run yarn build:dev
.
package.json

and edit gradle.properties to match the new cookie-consent-js

is merged, it will post a docker tag to #conversion-alerts. Deploy with Octopus.FAQs
