Automatically send update pings when user navigates in the app to simulate page loads about ng-intercom HOT 7 CLOSED

I'll work on this today, thanks for the request!

from ng-intercom.

Released 1.0.0-beta.1 with a new option updateOnRouterChange. Set it to true to automatically handle router events.

Just a heads up, you nessecarily don't have to log to intercom on a route change in a spa, they watch window.location. Unless you are bypassing the angular routers native functionality to perhaps add something like query strings or something using the navigator and ignoring the history API. Still a cool feature, but it can double log an event, so it's best to use with caution.

@scott-wyatt Could you point me to where this is stated? I've looked through the documentation but could not find mention of this behavior.

Good note @scott-wyatt, can you add that to the docs?

from ng-intercom.

@flore2003 I was just going through their docs and it says it does require you to send an Itercom.update, which is odd, because I don't do that but still see the current page in intercom despite not doing that in my sample apps. In the plugins code, it looks like it is listening for changes in the browser history API, so it would stand to reason that they are listening to it, but that it is not documented, not their preferred method, or that their documentation may be out of date?

I think this is just a safe option for those who want to follow the API docs. This is definitely a feature I like having.
