@flayyer/ping-react
Monitor and pre-render Flayyer URLs - React component and hook.
This script will only work on pages where a <meta> tag is present and related to og:image or twitter:image and has for content a Flayyer URL. In other cases this will result in a no-op.
Install
This module supports TypeScript and JavaScript.
npm install --save @flayyer/ping-react
# or with yarn:
yarn add @flayyer/ping-reactUsage
React Hook
We recommended using this library with React Hooks.
Add this to public pages where you have a Flayyer URL in your <meta> tags for dynamic og:images.
import { useFlayyerPing } from "@flayyer/ping-react";
function App() {
useFlayyerPing();
// ...
}Next.js
See https://nextjs.org/docs/advanced-features/custom-app
If you are using Next.js you probably want to add this hook to your /pages/_app.js file.
// /pages/_app.js
import Head from "next/head";
import Flayyer from "@flayyer/flayyer";
import { useFlayyerPing } from "@flayyer/ping-react";
const flayyer = new Flayyer({
tenant: "tenant",
deck: "deck",
template: "template",
variables: {
title: "Hello world!",
},
});
function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
useFlayyerPing();
return (
<>
<Head>
<meta property="og:image" content={url} />
</Head>
<Component {...pageProps} />
</>
);
}
export default MyAppReact component
If you are not using React Hooks, you can active this script by mounting a <FlayyerPing /> component. Make sure to mount it only one time per page.
The same rules described above applies here: this will only work on pages where you have a Flayyer URL in your <meta> tags for dynamic og:images. Ideally only on public pages.
This component has no effect on your DOM since it always renders null.
import { FlayyerPing } from "@flayyer/ping-react";
function App() {
return (
<div>
<FlayyerPing />
// ...
</div>
)
}
