Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

        }
    ]
});
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
    cc.init();
});

multi language support

instead of plain text you can provide language objects for any label:

{
    title: 'Werbung';
}
{
    title: { de: 'Werbung', en: 'Advertising' }
}

chefcookie will find out the current language and show the appropriate strings.

opt out links

its recommended to place those kind of links inside your privacy page:

<a href="#" data-cc-disable="analytics" data-cc-message="Google Analytics aktivieren">Google Analytics deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="tagmanager" data-cc-message="Google Tag Manager aktivieren"
    >Google Tag Manager deaktivieren</a
>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="facebook" data-cc-message="Facebook Pixel aktivieren">Facebook Pixel deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="twitter" data-cc-message="Twitter Pixel aktivieren">Twitter Pixel deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="taboola" data-cc-message="Taboola Pixel aktivieren">Taboola Pixel deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="match2one" data-cc-message="Match2One Pixel aktivieren">Match2One Pixel deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="microsoft" data-cc-message="Microsoft Ads aktivieren">Microsoft Ads deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="linkedin" data-cc-message="LinkedIn Pixel aktivieren">LinkedIn Pixel deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="etracker" data-cc-message="etracker aktivieren">etracker deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="matomo" data-cc-message="Matomo aktivieren">Matomo deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="smartlook" data-cc-message="Smartlook aktivieren">Smartlook deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="crazyegg" data-cc-message="Crazy Egg aktivieren">Crazy Egg deaktivieren</a>
<a href="#" data-cc-disable="google_maps" data-cc-message="Google Maps aktivieren">Google Maps deaktivieren</a>

you can style those links with:

[data-cc-disable] {
}
[data-cc-disable].disabled {
}

(one time) opt in links

these links self destroy if the respective script is accepted:

<div data-cc-enable="google_maps">
    Ich möchte Google Maps-Inhalte aktivieren und stimme zu, dass Daten von Google geladen werden (siehe
    <a href="/de/datenschutz" target="_blank">Datenschutz</a>).
</div>

it is recommended to place them inside your via js populated divs (like a google maps wrapper).
if you click on it, the script is explicitly accepted.

manually accept/decline

cc.accept('analytics');
cc.decline('analytics');
cc.isAccepted('analytics'); // true|false

bypass / backdoor

add ?accept=1 to your urls to completely bypass chefcookie and
ignore user consent which means all scripts are in fact accepted.
you also can define custom parameter name/value pairs via bypass_parameter.

custom scripts

the following keywords as keys are reserved:

  • analytics
  • tagmanager
  • facebook
  • twitter
  • taboola
  • match2one
  • microsoft
  • linkedin
  • etracker
  • matomo
  • smartlook
  • crazyegg
  • google_maps

if you provide strings as values, chefcookie interprets them appropriately. chefcookie then loads the libraries with reasonable default settings. however, you can execute your own functions in either overwriting the values of these reserved keywords (and provide an object) or use any other keyword.

script blocking

the best strategy is to add no scripts at all and let chefcookie add the scripts later.

if you cannot do that (e.g. when you cannot manipulate the page content), there are a lot of techniques and strategies out there to prevent existing scripts from executing:

  • use http content-security-policy headers
  • manipulate embeds (set type="javascript/blocked" or alt-src="...")
  • monkey patch document.createElement
  • watch and modify with MutationObserver
  • abuse document.write

chefcookie is flexible and very well works together with e.g. yett:

  • init yett before chefcookie to block scripts
  • call unblock() inside chefcookies custom scripts

dynamically load a script

chefcookie provides a load-helper, where you can provide one or multiple urls to load:

cc.loadJs(['script1.js', 'script2.js']);

in order to call resolve() (see below), you can use:

cc.loadJs(['script1.js', 'script2.js']).then(() => { resolve(); };
cc.loadJs(['script1.js', 'script2.js'], () => { resolve(); }); // also supported

wait for a tracker

if your javascript is dependent on a specific script loaded by chefcookie, you should handle that case and wait for the tracker being executed:

cc.waitFor('google_recaptcha').then(() => {});
cc.waitFor('google_recaptcha', () => {}); // also supported

this only gets executed when you call resolve() inside your custom tracking function.

more

the cookie banner is shown always, if no consent is saved.
if done so, it is shown again, after the cookie expired (see the expiration-setting).

cookies are valid by default for the 2nd level domain of the site. e.g if the banner is on www.foo.bar, the cookie domain will be foo.bar, so the user's choices will be valid for www.foo.bar, xxx.foo.bar, ...
there is an option to customize the domain using the domain-settings. setting the domain to undefined means using cookies only for the current site.

it is recommended to include a (re)opening link in the privacy policy, for example.
here you can also use the following code:

<a href="#" data-cc-open>Consent-Einstellungen bearbeiten</a>

you can programmatically control chefcookie via javascript:

  • cc.open(): open the cookie banner manually
  • cc.openWithSettings(): open the cookie banner including settings manually
  • cc.isOpen(): check if cookie banner is opened
  • cc.close(): close the cookie banner manually
  • cc.isClosed(): check if cookie banner is closed
  • cc.destroy(): destroy the cookie banner and all event listeners
  • cc.updateOptOutOptIn(): refreshes the state of opt out / opt in buttons

exclude user agent

you can avoid showing the banner for specific user agents (i.e. bots or crawlers), using a regular expression.

const cc = new chefcookie({
    ...
    exclude_ua_regex: /(myBOT)/

consent manager tracking

to test the acceptance of the consent manager, it is recommended to use the consent_tracking-option. if you specify an url (relative or absolute) there, chefcookie sends a post-request with analysis data for every action that a user performs in the consent manager. these requests have the form:

{
    "action": "accept_all",
    "date": "2021-01-01 10:00:00",
    "url": "https://tld.com?foo=bar",
    "providers": "analytics,facebook,twitter",
    "viewport": "the viewport size of the user device"
}

url as you can see consists of potential get-paramaters (so that you can analyze e.g. google ads campaigns).
take note that nor ip or user agent are posted, but feel free to catch and store these parts with the help of a php endpoint.

the action-key can have the following values:

  • open: the consent manager is shown
  • accept_all: all providers are accepted
  • accept_partially: providers are accepted partially
  • decline: all providers are declined
  • settings_open: settings are opened
  • settings_close: settings are closed
  • first_user_interaction: first mouse/touch/scroll interaction happened

here it makes sense to temporarily store this data in a database and evaluate it – for example, to measure the discrepancy between the real visitor numbers and the numbers in google analytics or to optimize the appearance of the consent manager (e.g. using the layout-option).

etracker optimizer

by default the etracker optimizer is disabled, since it creates a nasty fouc. you can enable it via:

window._etr = { eoBlocked: false };
cc.load('etracker', 'xxxxxx');

event tracking

chefcookie additionally comes with event tracking for all major analytics platforms.
you can even use this feature with side loaded scripts.

window.addEventListener('load', () => {
    // track duration (sends action "xxs" in 30 second intervals)
    cc.trackDuration();
    // track scroll depth (sends "xx%" in scroll steps 1, 10, 25, 50, 75, 100)
    cc.trackScrollDepth();
    // custom duration
    cc.trackDurationCustom(60, () => {
        cc.eventAnalytics('60s');
    });
    // custom scroll depth
    cc.trackScrollDepthCustom(25, () => {
        cc.eventAnalytics('25%');
    });
    // custom tracking
    document.querySelector('.conversion').addEventListener('click', e => {
        cc.eventAnalytics('custom_category', 'custom_action');
        cc.eventAnalytics('custom_action');
        cc.eventFacebook('custom_action_name');
        cc.eventTwitter('conversion_id');
        cc.eventTaboola('custom_event_name');
        cc.eventMatch2one('id=xxxxxx&seg=xxxxxx');
        cc.eventLinkedin('conversion_id');
        cc.eventEtracker('custom_category', 'custom_action');
        cc.eventEtracker('custom_action');
        e.preventDefault();
    });
});
