npm i socketmobile-capturejs --save

Using CaptureJS in the code:

import { Capture } from 'socketmobile-capturejs';
import React from 'react';

Use with Next.js

For use with Next.js, you will likely receive the below error.

This is because XmlHttpRequest is not available server-side. We are working on more concise solution but for now you can use the below workaround to use captureJs in a Next.js project.

First, you need to install next-transpile-modules and you need to add the below code in your next.config.js.

const withTM = require("next-transpile-modules")(["socketmobile-capturejs"]);
module.exports = withTM({
  webpack5: false,
  //your other exports
});

After that, you will need to install the xhr2 package which will enable you to use XMLHttpRequest server side. Then you will need to add this code into your root file (ex: _app.js).

// hack for "next build"
import xhr2 from "xhr2";
import '../styles/globals.css'

// if SSR is working now, replace XMLHttpRequest with lib
if (typeof globalThis.window?.document?.createElement === 'undefined') {
  globalThis.XMLHttpRequest = xhr2;
}

Then in your pages or index.js file you can import socketmobile-capture modules. Note: You cannot import socketmobile-capture modules in the same file that you write the above global check or you will get the same undefined XMLHttpRequest error.
