Behaviour
There is an event listener for the click on html elements containing css class js-open-ng-cc which opens the window. You can put it anywhere on your site if you need to.
On every cookie group checkbox change, plugin saves the cookie with that cookie name and accept or revoke value.
Window opens on every page load until user clicks the #ng-cc-accept button (if the open parameter isn't set to false). After that, the window doesn't open automatically for the duration of the cookie lifetime.
SCSS
Import styles to scss file:
@import "@netgen/javascript-cookie-control/scss/style";
You also need to configure sass-loader to understand imports from node_modules. Update your sass-loader config by changing { loader: 'sass-loader' } to:
{
loader: 'sass-loader',
options: {
includePaths: ['node_modules']
}
}
You can override scss variables for main div id, plugin window width and background:
$ngCcId: 'ng-cc';
$ngCcWidth: 28em;
$ngCcBg: hsl(0, 0, 15);
