npm Adopts OIDC for Trusted Publishing in CI/CD Workflows
npm now supports Trusted Publishing with OIDC, enabling secure package publishing directly from CI/CD workflows without relying on long-lived tokens.
Detect website visitor IP, location, currencies, languages and device information
using npm
npm install visitorapi
Since version 2.0.0, VisitorAPI supports promise as well. See the example below.
import VisitorAPI from "visitorapi";
VisitorAPI("<my project id>").then(data => {
console.log(data);
setCountry(data.countryCode);
}).catch(error => {
console.log(error);
});
import VisitorAPI from "visitorapi";
VisitorAPI(
"<my project id>",
data => {
console.log(data);
setCountry(data.countryCode);
},
error => {
console.log(error);
}
);
You will need to create a project via the VisitorAPI interface and retrieve the project ID to replace <my project id>
in the example code.
VisitorAPI doesn't require any API key or token. You will need to specify the domains that are allowed to call the API in the Visitor API user interface, or the API will return a 403 error.
