dont-bounce-please's Issues

Document better. Parameters in depth, installation instructions.

Right now, documentation is constrained to a comment on the line of the example code. We'd do better to provide insight in to how to use individual parameters like sensitivity effectively and how showPerUser works (e.g., cookie based, undefined for no limit)

Not working with IE/Edge Browsers

Using the defaultOptions IE and Edge throw errors when attempting to initialize the DBP function.

As a workaround, I have put the initialization within a try/catch block.

It works fine in other browsers even mobile. My configuration is identical to the readme section for the DBP repo.

The babel use here is embarrassingly out of date.

Support configuration for the showPerPage count cookie.

• Longevity
• Cookie domain
• Name
• Some sort of functionality to change showPerPage to be an effective showMaximumTimesTotal.

Support a minimum time on site before showing bounce notice.

showperpage & showperuser counter

should be >= instead of >

The code should be

    if (variables.showPerPage && state.count >= variables.showPerPage) return;
    if (variables.showPerUser && readUserCount() >= variables.showPerUser) return;

Return a handle to the exit popup object.

Provide a method to destroy the event (e.g., on desirable exit) on this handle. Perhaps a method to block showing exit popups to this user via a cookie.

Needs npm.

R is not a function

Wow, so everything worked until I installed on clients site, then I keep getting R is not a function. What could be happening here?

Needs lint.

Needs tests.

The package.json provides a test mechanism but there are no valid automated tests.
