Advanced tools
Package description
rrweb is a library for recording and replaying user interactions on web applications. It captures user events such as clicks, scrolls, and form inputs, and allows you to replay these events to understand user behavior or debug issues.
Recording User Interactions
This feature allows you to record user interactions on a web page. The `record` function starts recording and emits events that can be sent to a server or saved locally.
const rrweb = require('rrweb');
const stopFn = rrweb.record({
emit(event) {
// send event to your server or save it locally
console.log(event);
},
});
// To stop recording
stopFn();Replaying Recorded Sessions
This feature allows you to replay recorded sessions. The `rrwebPlayer` takes the recorded events and replays them in a specified container element.
const rrwebPlayer = require('rrweb-player');
new rrwebPlayer({
target: document.body, // the container element
data: {
events: [], // the array of recorded events
},
});Custom Event Handling
This feature allows you to handle custom events during the recording. You can filter and process specific types of events as needed.
const rrweb = require('rrweb');
const stopFn = rrweb.record({
emit(event) {
if (event.type === 'custom') {
// handle custom event
console.log('Custom event:', event);
}
},
});
// To stop recording
