Usage

For all static pages

By default the cookie bar will be visible on every page after turning on bundle.

For iframes

Disable response injection in app/config/config.yml

xsolve_cookie_acknowledgement:
    response_injection: false

Include cookie bar in appropriate location

{% include 'XsolveCookieAcknowledgementBundle::cookie_acknowledgement_bar.html.twig' %}

Configuration options

Configuration can be adjusted in app/config/config.yml

xsolve_cookie_acknowledgement:
    response_injection: true # default true
    template: custom_cookie_bar.html.twig # twig template name, default: XsolveCookieAcknowledgementBundle::cookie_acknowledgement_bar.html.twig

Altering cookie bar texts

Place tranlations file in your app directory:

app/Resources/translations/XsolveCookieAcknowledgementBundle.en.yml

And change texts

cookie.message: My message
cookie.message.accept: Accept button text

Of course you can set up those texts in as many locales as you want.

Altering cookie bar apperance

By default cookie bar comes with some default styles. If you wish to change those, use CSS. For example you may want pink background with placement on top of the page:

#cookie-law-info-bar {
    background: pink !important;
    top: 50px !important;
    bottom: auto !important;
}

Please note that every style needs to override provided inline styles.

Altering whole cookie bar template

You use your own template by setting it in the configuration (app/config/config.yml):

xsolve_cookie_acknowledgement:
    template: ::custom_cookie_bar.html.twig

In above case template is located in app/Resources/custom_cookie_bar.html.twig

Also base template can be reused be Twig extension (two blocks are used: xsolve_cookie_message and xsolve_cookie_message_js), see example below:

{% extends "XsolveCookieAcknowledgementBundle::cookie_acknowledgement_bar.html.twig" %}

{% block xsolve_cookie_message %}
    {{ parent() }}
    <div>This is something custom</div>
{% endblock %}

{% block xsolve_cookie_message_js %}
    {{ parent() }}
    <script type="text/javascript">
        document.getElementById('js-cookie-law-close-button').onclick = function () {
            alert('Got ya!');
        }
    </script>
{% endblock %}
