Impression is a gallery of easy to use scripts to have HTML DOM element 'impression' event on your web pages.

Usage

Pick one that you need, add CSS class 'impression' (overridable default) to elements you want to track, and then add listeners for the event just as you use click event or any other events.

One Time Impression

(92+/impression.min.js -> 0.5KB)

To fire impression event one time when an element becomes visible, use one of the following CDNs.

One Time Impression + Off

(92+/impression+off.min.js -> 0.8KB)

To fire impression event one time when an element becomes visible and impressioff event one time when an element is no longer visible, use one of the following CDNs.

CDNs

jsDelivr
<script src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@setyadi/impression/dist/92+/impression.min.js'></script>
<script src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@setyadi/impression/dist/92+/impression+off.min.js'></script>
unpkg
<script src='https://unpkg.com/@setyadi/impression/dist/92+/impression.min.js'></script>
<script src='https://unpkg.com/@setyadi/impression/dist/92+/impression+off.min.js'></script>

Configuration

By default, the script would just work provided that you agree with the default values. But if you want to use something different, you can override the defaults by adding the following attributes on the script tag.

Attributes Description Default Value
elements-selector CSS selector that would match the elements. '.impression'
visible-fraction Visible fraction of elements that would trigger impression event. 0.5
visible-fractioff Visible fraction of elements that would trigger impressioff event after impression event is triggered. 0.0

Example of Overriding Defaults

<script
  src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@setyadi/impression/dist/92+/impression+off.min.js'
  elements-selector='[data-track="MyImpression"]'
  visible-fraction=0.8
  visible-fractioff=0.1>
</script>

Demo

To run the demo, clone this repo, cd to it, yarn install and then pick the demo page you want to see.

Vanilla JS

yarn demo

Svelte

yarn demo:svelte

They basically demo the same thing, but you can look at the source code to see how they use impression.

Disclaimer

Based on CanIUse, the above scripts should work for 92.x% or more of users worldwide. For the other times when it's not working, it doesn't break the page.

Roadmap

  • Reocurring impressions (just like one time impression but every time).
  • Impression events for elements created dynamically.
  • Support old browsers.
