README

All sites owned by EU citizens or targeted towards EU citizens must comply with a crazy EU law. This law requires a dialog to be displayed to inform the users of your websites how cookies are being used. You can read more info on the legislation on the site of the European Commission.

This package provides an easily configurable view to display the message. Also included is JavaScript code to set a cookie when a user agrees with the cookie policy. The package will not display the dialog when that cookie has been set.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require the42coders/eu-cookie-consent

Optionally you can publish the following Files

Config

This is recommended since you can configure all the consents you want to get from the visitor.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="the42coders\EuCookieConsent\EuCookieConsentServiceProvider" --tag="config" 

Views

If you want to customize the look and feel of the Package

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="the42coders\EuCookieConsent\EuCookieConsentServiceProvider" --tag="views" 

Language files

This package comes with multilanguage support out of the box. You can translate it to the Languages you want. Or just change the default Text.

    ],

];

Usage

Popup

To enable the Popup you can use the following Code in your blade Files (it returns html code).

{!! EuCookieConsent::getPopup() !!}

If you want to give the users the option to change the permissions just add another line

{!! EuCookieConsent::getUpdatePopup() !!}

This gives you the possibility to call the dialog with the given user settings by javascript.

Just call the following js function and the popup will appear.

update_popup()

Permission

If you want to check if the user gave you a specific permission. You can just pass the key of the Cookie you defined in the config file.

EuCookieConsent::canIUse('key from the cookies config')

Scripts/Imports ...

Very often we want to play out a specific Script Tag ... only if the user allowed us. You can define the Scripts in the config of the cookie. If you use the key header for example you can render them from all of the cookies.

{!! EuCookieConsent::getHtml('header') !!}

Testing

composer test
