envId	string	Required	Environment id provided by Flagship.
apiKey	string	Required	Api authentication key provided by Flagship.
decisionMode	DECISION-API|BUCKETING|BUCKETING_EDGE	DECISION-API	The SDK running mode. see Decision Mode
fetchNow	boolean	true	Determines whether to automatically fetch flags data when creating a new Visitor.
visitorData	object	Required	This is the data to identify the current visitor using your app. See arguments
reuseVisitorIds	boolean	true	client-side only If true, the SDK will save the visitor ID and/or anonymous ID, and reuse it for the next session if visitorId is not set, to maintain cross-session visitor experience.
loadingComponent	ReactNode	undefined	This component will be rendered when Flagship is loading at first initialization only. By default, the value is undefined. It means it will display your app and it might display default flags value for a very short moment.
shouldSaveInstance	boolean	true	If true, the newly created visitor instance will be returned and saved into Flagship. Otherwise, the newly created visitor instance won't be saved and will simply be returned.
initialCampaigns	object	undefined	Optional An object containing the data received when fetching the Flagship decision API (decisionMode="API"). Providing this property avoids the SDK from having an empty cache during first initialization.
initialFlagsData	array	undefined	Optional A set of flag data provided to avoid the SDK from having an empty cache during the first initialization.
onFlagsStatusChanged	function(object):void	undefined	Optional Callback function that will be called when the fetch flags status changes. see arguments
timeout	number	2	The timeout in seconds for API requests. Timeout can't be lower than 0 second.
logLevel	number	9	The maximum log level to display. see LogLevel
logManager	object	Defined	A custom implementation of the LogManager interface to receive logs from the SDK. The object must fill the Interface IFlagshipLogManager
decisionApiUrl	string	https://decision.flagship.io/v2	This setting can be useful if you need to simulate the API for tests such as end-to-end or if you want to move to an earlier version of the Flagship API.
pollingInterval	number	5	Bucketing mode only The time in seconds between two bucketing polling requests. If 0 is given, it will only poll once at start time.
hitDeduplicationTime	number	2.5	The delay in seconds for hit deduplication. After a hit is sent, any future attempts to send the same hit will be blocked until the specified delay has expired. If the value is 0, no deduplication process will be applied.
initialBucketing	object	undefined	Optional An object containing the data received when fetching the bucketing endpoint. Providing this object will make bucketing ready to use and the first polling will immediately check for updates.
visitorCacheImplementation	object	Defined	Optional An object that implements the visitorCacheImplementation interface to handle the visitor cache. see cache management
hitCacheImplementation	object	Defined	Optional An object that implements the IHitCacheImplementation interface to manage hits cache. see cache management
disableCache	boolean	false	If set to true, hit cache and visitor cache will be disabled; otherwise, they will be enabled. see cache management

fetchThirdPartyData	boolean	false	Optional Bucketing mode only If true, the SDK will fetch the visitor's segment from the universal data connector each time fetchFlags is called and append those segments in the visitor context.
nextFetchConfig	object	{ revalidate: 20 }	Optional In Next.js 13, you can define the time in seconds for storing SDK route cache before revalidation. learn more
fetchFlagsBufferingTime	number	2	Optional The delay in seconds for buffering fetch flags calls. After the SDK has fetched flags, they will be buffered for the specified delay. During this delay, any subsequent fetch flags calls will return the same flags. Note: If a value of 0 is given, no buffering process will be applied. If visitor data has changed, the buffering will be bypassed.
disableDeveloperUsageTracking	boolean	false	Determines whether to disable the collection of analytics data.
fetchFlagsOnBucketingUpdated	boolean	false	Bucketing mode only If true, it'll automatically call fetchFlags when the bucketing file has updated.

📘 Information

• Any change to the visitorData prop will automatically fetch flags.

• When the props fetchNow is set to true, the SDK will automatically fetch flags immediately after creating the visitor. see more

• If the props visitorData is null, no visitor will be initialized until it is set

• When both initialCampaigns and initialFlags are provided, the system will disregard initialCampaigns and only use initialFlags.

• When the SDK is running in Bucketing mode (decisionMode="BUCKETING"), the polling interval will restart when any of the following props change after the first render: envId, apiKey, decisionMode.

visitorData

The visitorData prop includes the following keys

key	Type	Default	Description
id	string	undefined	Optional Unique visitor identifier. If not set, it will be generated automatically. In client-side, if not specified, the id will either be automatically generated or will be the visitor id from the previous session (if reuseVisitorIds is set to true).
hasConsented	boolean	undefined	Required Specifies if the visitor has consented for personal data usage. When set to false, some features will be deactivated and the cache will be deactivated and cleared.
context	object	{}	Optional The visitor context is a dataset key/value that defines the current visitor. It is sent to Flagship for targeting purposes (use-case assignment) and to enrich reporting with Context Filters. Context keys must be strings, and the value types must be one of the following: number, boolean, or string.
isAuthenticated	boolean	false	Optional Specify if the visitor is authenticated or anonymous for Experience continuity.

Decision Mode

DECISION-APIMode (by default)

When the SDK operates in API mode, it uses our Decision API to manage campaign assignments and validate targeting. In this mode, each time a new Decision is needed, the SDK sends an HTTPS request to the API. This mode is enabled by default for all our SDKs.

BucketingMode

In Bucketing mode, the SDK downloads all campaign configurations in a single bucketing file. This allows the SDK to compute variation assignments on the client-side. The bucketing file is cached and only re-downloaded when campaign configurations are updated in the Flagship interface. Learn more

Tracking Manager Config

Represents the configuration for the tracking manager.

The Tracking Manager’s batch processing reduces network traffic, prevents hits loss through caching, and resends any failed hits.

options:

Key	Type	Default value	Description
cacheStrategy	CacheStrategy | number	CONTINUOUS_CACHING: 0	Define the strategy that will be used for hit caching see cacheStrategy
poolMaxSize	number	10	Define the minimum number of hits the pool must reach to automatically batch all hits in the pool and send them. The value must be greater than 5 otherwise default value will be used. Note: Having a large poolMaxSize can lead to performance issues.
batchIntervals	number	5s	Define a regular interval in seconds to trigger batch process. The process will batch all hits from the pool whether poolMaxSize is reached or not. The value must be between 1 second and 10800s (3 hours). Otherwise default value will be applied.

CacheStrategy

cacheStrategy is an enum defining the different caching strategies

Key	Type	Value	Description
CONTINUOUS_CACHING	number	0	When a hit is emitted, it will first be cached in database using IHitCacheImplementation, added into the pool, then after batching and sending, it will be flushed from database using IHitCacheImplementation. It is recommended for client side applications and should be used when your application is running in an environment where the probability of data loss is high. The SDK has a default cache implementation for browser using localStorage. Keep in mind that this strategy can do a lot of database I/O depending on how many hits your visitor can send. see example using localStorage
PERIODIC_CACHING	number	1	When a hit is emitted, it will be added into the pool, then after batching and sending, all database hits will be flushed, then the entire pool will be cached using IHitCacheImplementation for both actions. It is recommended for server-side applications and should be used when your application sends a lot of hits and the probability of data loss is low. The number of I/Os in the database is low. see example using redis_

import React from "react";
import { FlagshipProvider, CacheStrategy } from "@flagship.io/react-native-sdk";

const App = () => (
  <>
    <FlagshipProvider

Cache management

The purpose of cache management is to address the following issues:

• Re-allocation in bucketing mode :

In bucketing mode, the SDK ensures that a visitor remains in the variation where they were initially allocated, even if the customer or dynamic allocation changes the traffic allocation. This is because in bucketing mode, the assignment is made on the local device, so changing campaign allocation on the platform could cause visitors to see different campaigns.

• Handle offline mode on client side :

When the cache is enabled, the SDK attempts to retrieve the latest visitor data (campaign assignments) from the cache. It also saves all failed hits and visitor exposures to resend them later.

By default, the Flagship JS SDK provides a default cache manager implementation on the client side. However, you can use your own cache manager by implementing the IVisitorCacheImplementation and IHitCacheImplementation interfaces through the visitorCacheImplementation and hitCacheImplementation properties of the configuration.

Visitor Cache

The visitor cache is used to store the visitor data in a database through the IVisitorCacheImplementation interface which defines the methods that an object must implement to manager it.

interface IVisitorCacheImplementation {
    cacheVisitor(visitorId: string, data: VisitorCacheDTO):Promise<void>
    lookupVisitor(visitorId: string): Promise<VisitorCacheDTO>
    flushVisitor(visitorId: string): Promise<void>
}

cacheVisitor method

This method is invoked when the SDK needs to store visitor information in your database.

• public cacheVisitor(visitorId: string, data: object):Promise<void>

It accepts 2 arguments :

Argument	Type	Description
visitorId	string	The ID of the visitor
Data	object	The visitor data. The object adheres to the structure of the VisitorCacheDTO type.

lookupVisitor method

This method is invoked when the SDK needs to retrieve visitor information associated with a specific visitor ID from your database.

It should return an object of type VisitorCacheDTO that adheres to this structure see.

• public lookupVisitor(visitorId: string): Promise<object>

It accepts one argument :

Argument	Type	Description
visitorId	string	visitor ID

flushVisitor method

This method is invoked when the SDK needs to delete the visitor information associated with a specific visitor ID from your database.

• public flushVisitor(visitorId: string): Promise<void>

It accepts one argument :

Argument	Type	Description
visitorId	string	The ID of the visitor

📘 Information

• This method is called every time the setConsent method or the hasConsented key of the props visitorData is set to false.

VisitorCacheDTO

type VisitorCacheDTO = {
  version: number;
  data: {
    visitorId: string;
    anonymousId: string | null;
    consent?: boolean;
    context?: Record<string, boolean|number|string>;
    assignmentsHistory?: Record<string, string>;
    campaigns?: Array<{
      campaignId: string;
      variationGroupId: string;
      variationId: string;
      isReference?: boolean;
      type: string;
      activated?: boolean;
      flags?: Record<string, unknown>;
    }>;
  };
};

Hit Cache

The hit cache is used to store hits in your database based on the strategy used through the IHitCacheImplementation interface which defines the methods that an object must implement to handle it.

interface IHitCacheImplementation {
    cacheHit(hits: Record<string, HitCacheDTO>):Promise<void>
    lookupHits():Promise<Record<string, HitCacheDTO>>
    flushHits(hitKeys: string[]): Promise<void>
    flushAllHits(): Promise<void>
}

cacheHit method

This method is invoked to store hits based on cache the strategy used.

• public cacheHit(hits: Record<string, HitCacheDTO>):Promise<void>

It accepts 1 argument :

Argument	Type	Description
hits	object	This is a key/value object where: • key is a unique ID for each hit • value is an object that follows the shape of type HitCacheDTO.

lookupHits method

This method is invoked to load all hits from your database and attempt to send them in the background.

It should return an object where the key is a unique ID for each hit, and the value is an object of type HitCacheDTO that adheres to this structure see.

• public lookupHits():Promise<Record<string, HitCacheDTO>>

📘 Information

• Hits older than 4H will be ignored during the re-sending process.

flushHits function

This method is invoked to delete all hits that match the unique hit IDs from your database.

NOTE: It is called every time setConsent is set to false, erasing all of the visitor's hits from the database.

• public flushHits(hitKeys: string[]): Promise<void>

It accepts one argument :

Argument	Type	Description
hitKeys	string[]	Unique ID of hits

📘 * This method is called every time the setConsent method or the hasConsented key of the props visitorData is set to false.

flushAllHits function

This method is invoked to delete all hits from your database without exception.

• public flushAllHits(): Promise<void>

HitCacheDTO

type HitCacheLookupDTO = {
  version: number;
  data: {
    visitorId: string;
    anonymousId: string | null;
    type: HitType | "ACTIVATE";
    time: number;
    content?: Record<string, unknown>;
  };
};

IHitCacheImplementation implementation

localStorage

This is an implementation of the IHitCacheImplementation interface using localStorage.

import { Flagship, CacheStrategy } from "@flagship.io/react-native-sdk";

const FS_HIT_PREFIX = 'FS_DEFAULT_HIT_CACHE'


const hitCacheImplementation = {
  cacheHit (hits) {
    const localDatabaseJson = localStorage.getItem(FS_HIT_PREFIX) || '{}'
    const localDatabase = JSON.parse(localDatabaseJson)

    const newLocalDatabase = {
      ...localDatabase,
      ...hits
    }

    localStorage.setItem(FS_HIT_PREFIX, JSON.stringify(newLocalDatabase))
    return Promise.resolve()
  },
  lookupHits () {
    const localDatabaseJson = localStorage.getItem(FS_HIT_PREFIX) || '{}'
    const localDatabase = JSON.parse(localDatabaseJson)
    return Promise.resolve(localDatabase)
  },
  flushHits (hitKeys) {
    const localDatabaseJson = localStorage.getItem(FS_HIT_PREFIX) || '{}'
    const localDatabase = JSON.parse(localDatabaseJson)

    hitKeys.forEach(key => {
      delete localDatabase[key]
    })

    localStorage.setItem(FS_HIT_PREFIX, JSON.stringify(localDatabase))
    return Promise.resolve()
  },
  flushAllHits () {
    localStorage.removeItem(FS_HIT_PREFIX)
    return Promise.resolve()
  }
}

Flagship.start(ENV_ID, API_KEY, {
  hitCacheImplementation: hitCacheImplementation,
  trackingManagerConfig: {
    batchIntervals: 5,
    poolMaxSize: 10,
    cacheStrategy: CacheStrategy.CONTINUOUS_CACHING
  }
})
