PhoneCheck

When installed via a CDN a silentauth global is installed.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@silentauth/silentauth-sdk-web/dist/silentauth-sdk.umd.js"></script>
<script>
  silentauth.openCheckUrl(url, config)
</script>

Via NPM

Reachability Check

import silentauth from '@silentauth/silentauth-sdk-web'

silentauth.getReachability(url)

PhoneCheck

When installed via NPM the imported object exposes the openCheckUrl function.

import silentauth from '@silentauth/silentauth-sdk-web'

silentauth.openCheckUrl(checkUrl, config)

openCheckUrl Config

The openCheckUrl function takes an optional config Object argument:

silentauth.openCheckUrl(url, config)

The configuration options are:

{
  // whether debug information will be logged to the console.
  // Defaults to `false`
  debug: boolean,

  // "image" - a zero pixel image is dynamically added to the DOM for the check_url request
  // "window" - `window.open` is called to open the check_url in a new window
  // Defaults to "image".
  checkMethod: "image" | "window",

  // If `checkMethod` was set to `window` identifies the number of
  // milliseconds after which the opened window will be closed.
  // Defaults to 3000.
  windowCloseTimeout: Number,

  // It will run the device coverage check to determine
  // if the device is on a mobile IP
  // Defaults to true
  checkDeviceCoverage: boolean,

  // Depending on what PhoneCheck API version the check is created with.
  // Defaults to "v0.2"
  version: "v0.1" | "v0.2",
}

Local development

You can run npm run dev that will open rollup with watch mode that will re-compile the SDK after every change.

In another terminal you can run npm run serve to open a test web page where you can test real phone checks if you have the node server running or you can simply check a PhoneCheck check_url.
