Let your users choose the cookies they eat on your website.
Orejime 🍪 is an easy to use consent manager that focuses on accessibility.
Orejime 🍪 is an open-source JavaScript library you can use on your website to let users choose what third-party cookies they allow. It's specifically made to comply with the GDPR.
Orejime 🍪 is a fork of Klaro! that focuses on accessibility. It follows Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) via the French RGAA.
Using Orejime 🍪 requires a few steps:
The easiest way to use the lib is to include the built files directly in the browser.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/orejime@latest/dist/orejime.css" />
<script src="https://unpkg.com/orejime@latest/dist/orejime.js"></script>If you're using this method, please avoid using the @latest version. Prefer a fixed one like https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/....
That way you can ensure you will not be impacted by a change of API or a potential bug that could land in the latest version.
Orejime 🍪 is a React lib. Make sure you already installed react and react-dom, then:
npm install orejime
The CSS is located in node_modules/orejime/dist/orejime.css. Import it directly in your JS thanks to webpack, or install it any way you are used to in your project.
You can also directly consume the Sass file if you prefer, located in the same folder.
Note: if you don't have a React environment but still want to use npm in order to easily get the latest version of Orejime, the already-built JS file is located in node_modules/orejime/dist/orejime.js.
For IE11, you'll need to have ES6 polyfills loaded on your page. One easy and efficient way to add such polyfills is to use polyfill.io.
For each third-party script you want Orejime to manage, you must modify its <script> tag so that the browser doesn't load it directly anymore. Orejime will take care of loading it if the user accepts.
For inline scripts, set the type attribute to opt-in to keep the browser from executing the script. Also add a data-name attribute with a short, unique, spaceless name for this script:
- <script>
+ <script
+ type="opt-in"
+ data-type="application/javascript"
+ data-name="google-tag-manager">
(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push [...]
</script>For external scripts or img tags (for tracking pixels), do the same, and rename the src attribute to data-src:
- <script
- src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&callback=initMap"></script>
+ <script
+ type="opt-in"
+ data-type="application/javascript"
+ data-name="google-maps"
+ data-src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&callback=initMap"></script>You need to pass Orejime 🍪 a configuration object with, at the very least, apps and privacyPolicy properties. Each app listed in apps must itself have at least name, title and cookies.
Here is a fully-detailed annotated example of a configuration object:
var orejimeConfig = {
// Optional. You can customize the ID of the <div> that Orejime will create when starting up.
// The generated <div> will be inserted at the beginning of the <body>.
// If there is already a DOM element with this id, Orejime will use it instead of creating a new element.
// defaults to "orejime".
elementID: "orejime",
// Optional. For accessibility's sake, the Orejime modal must know what is the element
// containing your app or website. Orejime should *not* be in this element.
// The idea is your DOM could look like this after Orejime is initialized:
// <body>
// <div id="orejime">...</div>
// <div id="app">your actual website</div>
// </body>
//
// It is highly recommended to set this option, even though it's not required.
// defaults to undefined.
appElement: "#app",
// Optional. You can customize the name of the cookie that Orejime uses for storing
// user consent decisions.
// defaults to "orejime".
cookieName: "orejime",
// Optional. You can set a custom expiration time for the Orejime cookie, in days.
// defaults to 365.
cookieExpiresAfterDays: 365,
// Optional. You can provide a custom domain for the Orejime cookie, for example to make it available on every associated subdomains.
cookieDomain: 'mydomain.com',
// Optional. You can provide a custom function to serialize the cookie contents.
stringifyCookie: (contents) => JSON.stringify(contents),
// Optional. You can provide a custom function to unserialize the cookie contents.
parseCookie: (cookie) => JSON.parse(cookie),
// You must provide a link to your privacy policy page
privacyPolicy: "",
// Optional. Applications configured below will be ON by default if default=true.
// defaults to true
default: true,
// Optional. If "mustConsent" is set to true, Orejime will directly display the consent
// manager modal and not allow the user to close it before having actively
// consented or declined the use of third-party apps.
// defaults to false
mustConsent: false,
// Optional. If "mustNotice" is set to true, Orejime will display the consent
// notice and not allow the user to close it before having actively
// consented or declined the use of third-party apps.
// Has no effect if mustConsent is set to true.
// defaults to false
mustNotice: false,
// Optional. You can define the UI language directly here. If undefined, Orejime will
// use the value given in the global "lang" variable, or fallback to the value
// in the <html> lang attribute, or fallback to "en".
lang: "en",
// Optional. You can pass an image url to show in the notice.
// If the image is not exclusively decorative, you can pass an object
// with the image src and alt attributes: `logo: {src: '...', alt: '...'}`
// defaults to false
logo: false,
// Optional. Set Orejime in debug mode to have a few stuff
// logged in the console, like warning about missing translations.
// defaults to false
debug: false,
// You can overwrite existing translations and add translations for your
// app descriptions and purposes. See `src/translations.yml` for a full
// list of translations that can be overwritten

// Do not forget to add translations for all purposes you list here.
purposes: ["analytics"],
// Optional. A callback function that will be called each time
// the consent state for the app changes. Passes
// the `app` config as the second parameter as well.
callback: function(consent, app){
// This is an example callback function.
console.log("User consent for app " + app.name + ": consent=" + consent)
},
// Optional. If "required" is set to true, Orejime will not allow this app to
// be disabled by the user.
// default to false

// Overwrites the global "default" setting.
// defaults to the value of the gobal "default" setting
default: true,

},

title: "Inline Tracker",
purposes: ["analytics"],
cookies: [
"inline-tracker"
// When deleting a cookie, Orejime will try to delete a cookie with the given name,
// the "/" path, and multiple domains (the current domain and `"." + current domain`).
// If an app sets a cookie on a different path or domain than that, Orejime won't be
// able to delete it by itself without more info.
// In this case, you can explicitely define a cookie, a path and domain:
["cookieName", "/blog", "." + location.hostname],
["cookieName", "/", "test.mydomain.com"],
]

apps: [
"google-tag-manager",

]
}
}Now that you included the JS, the CSS, configured existing third-party scripts and defined your configuration, you can initialize an instance. This can be done automatically or manually.
When including the script, the lib checks if the window.orejimeConfig variable exists. If it does, a new Orejime instance is created in window.orejime.
// if using Orejime in a module context:
// var Orejime = require('orejime');
Orejime.init(orejimeConfig);Either replace the original CSS entirely, or add your custom stylesheet to overwrite only some of the rules.
For example:
/* custom-style.css */
.orejime-Notice,
.orejime-Modal {
background: pink;
color: white;
}<link rel="stylesheet" href="orejime.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="custom-style.css" />You can import the original Sass stylesheet into your own, and tweak it as you wish.
Orejime provides default variables that you can overwrite to quickly change its appearance.
For example:
$orejime-theme-bg: pink;
$orejime-theme-color: white;
@import "~orejime/src/scss/orejime.scss"Orejime.init(config): creates a new Orejime instance with the given config objectOrejime.defaultConfig: object containing all the default properties of an instance
show(): show the consent modalinternals.react: the React app used internally. Seesrc/components/main.jsinternals.manager: the ConsentManager instance used. Seesrc/consent-manager.jsinternals.config: the complete config object used
If you want to contribute to Orejime, or make a special build for yourself, clone the project then:
npm install
npm start
You can then open the demo page on http://localhost:3000 - it will be reloaded automatically when the JS or CSS changes.

Orejime started as a fork of Klaro!. A lot of stuff changed since. A few were integrated in the original project, but eventually some big bricks changed and it became difficult, or sometimes not even necessary, to push those changes in.
Orejime is maintained by Empreinte Digitale (French).
"Orejime" is a play-on-word. You can pronounce it like "Au régime" in French, which means "on a diet". 🍪
