Features

• Easy-to-integrate chat widget
• Customizable launcher button
• Supports shadow DOM for CSS isolation
• API-driven session creation
• Lightweight and developer-friendly

Installation

Install the Panacea SDK via npm:

npm install @trypanacea/sdk

Usage

Basic Setup

Import and initialize the SDK in your application:

import { PanaceaSDK } from "@trypanacea/sdk";

PanaceaSDK.initPanacea({
  appKey: "your-app-key",       // Replace with your app key
  apiKey: "your-api-key",       // Replace with your API key
  settings: {
    userId: "12345",            // Optional: Unique user ID
    firstName: "John",          // Optional: User's first name
    lastName: "Doe",            // Optional: User's last name
    email: "[email protected]", // Optional: User's email
    actionColor: "#3498db",     // Optional: Button color
    backgroundColor: "#ffffff", // Optional: Widget background color
    region: "us",               // Optional: Default region (us, eu, ap)
  },
});

Customizing the Launcher Button

You can hide the default launcher and use a custom element:

PanaceaSDK.initPanacea({
  appKey: "your-app-key",
  apiKey: "your-api-key",
  settings: {
    customLauncherSelector: "#custom-launcher",
    hideDefaultLauncher: true,
  },
});

In your HTML:

<button id="custom-launcher">Start Chat</button>

Example with React

Here's how to integrate the SDK in a React component:

import { useEffect } from "react";
import { PanaceaSDK } from "@trypanacea/sdk";

const ChatWidget = () => {
  useEffect(() => {
    PanaceaSDK.initPanacea({
      appKey: "your-app-key",
      apiKey: "your-api-key",
      settings: {
        firstName: "Jane",
        email: "[email protected]",
      },
    });
  }, []);

  return null;
};

export default ChatWidget;
