reco-js v0.0.1
reco-js
Frontend library for recommender systems.
Getting Started
CDN
Add a <div>
tag with a custom class name (replace [POSTFIX]
with custom class extension name) and a REST API that
provides item recommendations.
<div class="rjs-slider-[POSTFIX]" data-url="https://reco-api.com"></div>
Add the following before your closing <body>
tag add
<script src="tbd"></script>
Furthermore, additional attributes can be added to the div
tag.
<div
...
data-title="Top Recommendations"
data-slidesToShow="3"
data-varparam='{"item_id_seed": "#code"}'>
</div>
The basic data structure that needs to be provided by the custom REST API has to contain at least the following attributes:
{
name: "My Fancy Product",
price: "12.99",
url: "https://my.shop.com/my-fancy-product",
image_url: "https://svgsilh.com/svg/1886001.svg"
}
Evidence Collection & Identification Methods
The library provides an evidence collection (user interaction with components). To enable collection set
attribute e-url
in script tag with target of collection API.
<script src="tbd" e-url="https://reco-api.com"></script>
To identify a user various identification techniques are enabled. An overview can be found here: https://www.scitepress.org/papers/2016/59656/59656.pdf (Bernardo, & Dulce, 2016).
