How to Use

Initialize setup

Get the API Key from Spearly CMS and set up as follows.

$(function() {
  $.spearly.init({ apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY' })
})

Get Content Lists

async function() {
  // basic
  const contents =  await $.spearly.getList(CONTENT_TYPE_ID)

  // when using some options
  const filteredContents =  await $.spearly.getList(CONTENT_TYPE_ID, { limit: 10, offset: 20 })
}

Filtered Options

• limit (number, 10)
• offset (number, 0)
• order ('desc' | 'asc', 'desc')
• orderBy ('latest' | 'popular' | string)
• filterBy (string)
• filterValue (string)
• filterRef (string)
• rangeTo (string)
• rangeFrom (string)
• distinctId (string)
• sessionId (string)
• patternName ('a' | 'b')

Get Content

async function() {
  // basic
  const content = await $.spearly.getContent(CONTENT_TYPE_ID, CONTENT_ID)

  // when using some options
  const optionalContent = await $.spearly.getContent(CONTENT_TYPE_ID, CONTENT_ID, { distinctId: DISTINCT_ID })
}

Options

• distinctId (string)
• patternName ('a' | 'b')

Get Content Preview

async function() {
  const content = await $.spearly.getContentPreview(CONTENT_TYPE_ID, CONTENT_ID, PREVIEW_TOKEN)
}

PREVIEW_TOKEN can be obtained on the content edit page of the Spearly CMS.

Get Form

async function() {
  const form = await $.spearly.getFormLatest(FORM_ID)
}

FORM_ID is for Form ID for embedding in Spearly CMS.

Submit Form

async function() {
  const submit = await $.spearly.postFormAnswers(FORM_VERSION_ID, { ...YOUR_FORM_FIRLD_ANSWERS, _spearly_gotcha: '' })
}

• FORM_VERSION_ID is the ID to be obtained by Get Form.
• YOUR_FORM_FIELD_ANSWERS is an object whose key is the form field ID and whose value is the content.
  For example, If the form has name, email, and content, and you answer 'James', '[email protected]', and 'Hello world!', here is:

  {
    name: 'James',
    email: '[email protected]',
    content: 'Hello world!'
  }

• _spearly_gotcha is an anti-spam field. Be sure to add it to YOUR_FORM_FIELD_ANSWERS.
  Don't forget to install it in an invisible field on your form.

A/B Testing analytics

Page view

If you are using A/B testing, you can run the following code on page load to count impressions.

const content = await $.spearly.getContent(CONTENT_ID)
$.spearly.pageView({
  patternName: content.attributes.patternName,
  contentId: content.id,
})

Conversion

If you are using A/B testing, you can count conversions by using the conversion method as follows

const content = await $.spearly.getContent(CONTENT_ID)
$('#submit').on('submit', () => {
  $.spearly.conversion({
    patternName: content.attributes.patternName,
    contentId: content.id,
  })
});
