JS segmentation library for split tests
Features
- Assigns a visitor to one of the specified segments
- The maximum number of segments is 26, like the letters in the Latin alphabet from A to Z
- A visitor's belonging to a segment can be specified and can last for a session or a specified number of days
Method
/**
* Get segment
* @params {segments_number {integer}, prefix {string}, days {integer}}
* @returns {string}
*/
segmab({params}, callback);
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| segments_number | interger | Number of segments (from 2 to 26) |
| prefix | string | Prefix to use several tests at the same time |
| days | integer | Segment's lifetime (if zero, the segment will be assigned for the duration of the browser session) |
Usage
For example, three segments with the prefix "myprefix" were defined. And the segmentation script itself is connected to the "head" as a file.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="js/segmentator.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>
Getting the segment value into an external variable:
const segment = segmab({segments_number: 3, prefix: "myprefix", days: 0});
switch(segment) {
case 'A':
// something for the segment "A" visitors
break;
case 'B':
// something for the segment "B" visitors
break;
case 'C':
// something for the segment "C" visitors
break;
default:
// if the segment value has been reset
}
Using callback function. For example, to send a segment to Google Analytics:
segmab({segments_number: 3, prefix: "myprefix", days: 0}, segment => {
ga("set", "dimension1", segment);
});
