Captures user interactions for playback while respecting privacy through input masking, element blocking, and GDPR-compliant consent flows. Use when the user wants to: (1) Add session recording to their app, (2) Implement session replay functionality, (3) Record user sessions for debugging, (4) Add privacy-compliant screen recording, (5) Debug user issues with visual replay, (6) Implement rrweb-based record

bashnpm install --ignore-scripts --save-exact @temps-sdk/react-analytics@0.0.4
Before running the install, explain that it changes the application's dependencies and lockfile and ask for confirmation. The reviewed npm package integrity is sha512-UMCA7nwvrUabu3Ro40zx0arhSsFhnYT41ddKChT8NebkBo+DjUK37UClujAzbE+1CIgRfYbP3VcHQwvzCvUlOw==. Verify that the resolved lockfile records this exact version and integrity.
Recording is driven by the main TempsAnalyticsProvider via enableSessionRecording + sessionRecordingConfig. If the app already uses the analytics provider (see the add-react-analytics skill), just turn recording on — no second provider needed.
tsx// app/layout.tsx (Next App Router) — provider ships its own 'use client', layout stays a Server Component. import { TempsAnalyticsProvider } from '@temps-sdk/react-analytics'; export default function RootLayout({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) { return ( <html lang="en"> <body> <TempsAnalyticsProvider basePath="/api/_temps" enableSessionRecording={true} sessionRecordingConfig={{ maskAllInputs: true, // default true — mask password/sensitive inputs sessionSampleRate: 1.0, // 0.0–1.0, default 1.0 excludedPaths: ['/admin'], // paths never recorded blockClass: 'rr-block', // CSS class to block (default) maskTextClass: 'rr-mask', // CSS class to mask text (default) ignoreClass: 'rr-ignore', // CSS class to ignore (default) }} > {children} </TempsAnalyticsProvider> </body> </html> ); }
> basePath="/api/_temps" is correct for apps deployed on Temps — the proxy ingests /api/_temps/session-replay directly. See the add-react-analytics skill for the full basePath explanation.
For an explicit on/off toggle, use the separate SessionRecordingProvider. Its real props are only defaultEnabled and persistPreference — masking/blocking is still configured on the analytics provider's sessionRecordingConfig.
ts// Real signatures: function SessionRecordingProvider(props: { children: React.ReactNode; defaultEnabled?: boolean; persistPreference?: boolean; // remember the user's choice in localStorage }): JSX.Element; function useSessionRecordingControl(defaultEnabled?: boolean): { isEnabled: boolean; enable: () => void; disable: () => void; toggle: () => void; };
tsx'use client'; import { SessionRecordingProvider, useSessionRecordingControl } from '@temps-sdk/react-analytics'; export function RecordingRoot({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) { return ( <SessionRecordingProvider defaultEnabled={false} persistPreference={true}> {children} </SessionRecordingProvider> ); } function RecordingControls() { const { isEnabled, toggle } = useSessionRecordingControl(); return ( <button onClick={toggle}>{isEnabled ? 'Stop' : 'Start'} Recording</button> ); }
> ⚠️ The control hook returns { isEnabled, enable, disable, toggle } — not { isRecording, startRecording, stopRecording, toggleRecording }. useSessionRecording() (no "Control") returns { isRecordingEnabled, enableRecording, disableRecording, toggleRecording, sessionId } instead.
Masking/blocking uses the CSS classes configured in sessionRecordingConfig (defaults: rr-block, rr-mask, rr-ignore).
tsx// Block entirely (placeholder in replay) <form className="rr-block"> <input name="card" /> <input name="cvv" /> </form> // Mask text content (asterisks in replay) <span className="rr-mask">{socialSecurityNumber}</span> // Ignore from recording <div className="rr-ignore"><NoisyWidget /></div>
> ⚠️ data-rr-block / data-rr-mask attribute selectors are not wired by default — use the configured CSS classes, or set custom selectors via sessionRecordingConfig.
tsx'use client'; import { useSessionRecordingControl } from '@temps-sdk/react-analytics'; import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; function ConsentBanner() { const [show, setShow] = useState(false); const { enable, disable } = useSessionRecordingControl(); useEffect(() => { const consent = localStorage.getItem('session_recording_consent'); if (consent === null) setShow(true); else if (consent === 'true') enable(); }, [enable]); if (!show) return null; return ( <div className="fixed bottom-4 right-4 rounded bg-white p-4 shadow-lg"> <p>We record sessions to improve your experience.</p> <div className="mt-2 flex gap-2"> <button onClick={() => { localStorage.setItem('session_recording_consent', 'true'); enable(); setShow(false); }}>Accept</button> <button onClick={() => { localStorage.setItem('session_recording_consent', 'false'); disable(); setShow(false); }}>Decline</button> </div> </div> ); }
tsx// Only in production (via the analytics provider) <TempsAnalyticsProvider basePath="/api/_temps" enableSessionRecording={process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'}> // Only for some users — gate the SessionRecordingProvider default <SessionRecordingProvider defaultEnabled={user?.plan === 'enterprise'}> // Exclude specific pages — use sessionRecordingConfig.excludedPaths instead of toggling per-route sessionRecordingConfig={{ excludedPaths: ['/checkout', '/account/billing'] }}
