Events
The PIE cookie banner does not directly manage cookies within the application or component. Instead, it has several events that application developers (consumers of this component) can listen for, letting applications manage their own cookies. The table below provides a list of events you can listen for:
Event | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
pie-cookie-banner-accept-all | CustomEvent | Triggered when the user chooses to accept all cookies. |
pie-cookie-banner-necessary-only | CustomEvent | Triggered when the user chooses to accept necessary cookies only. |
pie-cookie-banner-manage-prefs | CustomEvent | Triggered when the user chooses to manage their cookie preferences. |
pie-cookie-banner-prefs-saved | CustomEvent | Triggered when the user saves their cookie preferences. |
Localisation
By default, the component displays its content in English en
. To display the content in another language, you need to supply a language and country pairing to the language
and country
props(*).
Currently the following locale languages are supported:
bg (BULGARIAN)
ca (CATALAN)
da (DANISH)
de (GERMAN)
en (ENGLISH)
es (SPANISH)
he (HEBREW)
it (ITALIAN)
nl (DUTCH)
pl (POLISH)
sk (SLOVAK)
And the following bespoke locales are supported (sometimes added to accommodate specific legal wording for a particular country):
en-fr (ENGLISH-FRANCE)
fr-fr (FRENCH-FRANCE)
(*) This is the logic order for loading the locale;
- We attempt to load the bespoke locale for a given language/country combination, e.g.
fr-fr
. - We would attempt to use the locale file based on the language supplied, e.g. if you supplied language
de
& countrych
we would use the locale filede
, if you supplied languagefr
& countryca
then we would use the locale filefr
, etc. - If you supply an unsupported language in the language/country combination then we would attempt to use the default locale file based on the country supplied, e.g. if you supplied language
pt
& countryes
we would use the locale filees
, if you supplied languageru
& countryfr
then we would use the locale filefr
, etc. - If both the language and country are unsupported then we would use the default of
en
.
