How to use

To support idle.js in your application, you'll need to include a script tag in your html:

<script type="text/javascript" src="../idle.js"></script>

You may specify some global variables to tweak the behaviors.

// set redirect url (relative) after idle timeout
_idle('url', '/demo/logout.html');

// set escaped urls that no need to detect idle, e.g. logout page
_idle('escape', ['/demo/logout.html']);

// specifying a callback to replace the default redirect action
_idle('callback', function(){console.log('timeout')});

// customize idle time interval, in ms.
_idle('interval', 2000);

// enable debug mode
_idle('debug', true);

Build from source

To change the source file and build, simply use webpack.

# generates dist/tweak.js
webpack -d
# generates dist/tweak.min.js
webpack -p
