SassyDocs SDK

The SassyDocs SDK is a wrapper for SassyDocs, allowing you to control your documentation and use our AI to answer questions from inside your app

or via Yarn

yarn add @sassydocs/sassydocs-sdk

or via PNPM

pnpm add @sassydocs/sassydocs-sdk

Installing Sassydocs

Call the sassyDocs method with your setup options to initialise the support widget. This will need to be included on every page / file where the SDK functions are required.

import SassyDocs from "@sassydocs/sassydocs-sdk"

new sassyDocs({
  // your app ID is always required as a key
  key: '{MY_APP_KEY}',
  // optionally pass in the user details for analytics
  user: {
    name: '{USER_NAME}',
    identifier: '{USER_ID}',
    digest: '{USER_ID_SHA256_HASH}',
  },
  // optionally display the widget automatically
  autoShowWidget: true,
  // optionally set the position of the widget (default is bottom right)
  position: 'bottom-left',
});

For ease, you could create a sassydocs file. For example:

#sassydoc.js
import SassyDocs from "@sassydocs/sassydocs-sdk"

const sassyDoc = new sassyDocs({
  key: '{MY_APP_KEY}',
  //...
});

export default sassyDoc;

Then you can use SassyDoc anywhere in your app:

#main.js
import sassyDoc from "./sassydoc"

sassyDoc.open() //show the widget
sassyDoc.close() //hide the widget
sassyDoc.page('my-page-slug') //navigate to a page
sassyDoc.tag('my-tag-slug') //navigate to a tag/category
sassyDoc.ask('how do I invite my team?') //ask a question

Methods

Without Sassydocs running on your website or application, the following methods will not work as expected

open

sassyDocs.open();

This will show the SassyDocs widget in full. It will be animated onto the page.

close

sassyDocs.close();

This will hide the SassyDocs widget in full. It will be animated out of the page.

home

sassyDocs.home();

Navigate back to the widget home page

navigate

This feature is for single page apps (SPAs), where page navigation is programmatic

sassyDocs.navigate('/some-path');

Update the router within the SassyDocs widget. This will automatically update the documents/articles shown on the SassyDocs widget to ensure the content is relevant and flows with your website or app.

The path must be valid, some examples are below:

• / ✅
• /a-page ✅
• /directory/another-page ✅
• /invalid/ ❌ #paths cannot end with a trailing slash
• invalid ❌ #paths must start with a slash
• /a-page?user=123 ❌ #paths must not contain query strings

An example using Vue-Router

router.afterEach((to, from, failure) => {
  //...
  sassyDocs.navigate(to.path);
})

page

sassyDocs.page('6e89d841-baf9-417b-8d80-b5981fc6801c'); //via the ID
sassyDocs.page('get-started'); //via the slug

Navigate to a specific page/document.

tag

sassyDocs.tag('99e8df53-b010-4ee1-8ce8-0c8f0064240a'); //via the ID
sassyDocs.tag('billing'); //via the slug

Navigate to a specific tag/category to view all the relevant support documents

ask

sassyDocs.ask();
sassyDocs.ask('how do I upgrade my account?');

Calling ask without passing a question will prompt the user to ask a question

Calling ask with a question will ask the question
