Send to Device Widget¶

The Send to Device widget is a single macro form which facilitates the sending of a download link from a desktop browser to a mobile device. The form allows sending via email.

Important

This widget should only be shown to a limited set of locales who are set up to receive the emails. For those locales not in the list, direct links to the respective app stores should be shown instead. If a user is on iOS or Android, CTA buttons should also link directly to respective app stores instead of showing the widget. This logic should be handled on a page-by-page basis to cover individual needs.

Note

A full list of supported locales can be found in settings/base.py under SEND_TO_DEVICE_LOCALES, which can be used in the template logic for each page to show the form.

Usage¶

Include this macro:

{% from "macros.html" import send_to_device with context %}

Make sure necessary files are in your CSS/JS bundles:

'css/protocol/components/send-to-device.scss'

'js/base/send-to-device.js'

Include the macro in your page template:
```
{{ send_to_device() }}
```
Initialize the widget:

In your page JS, initialize the widget using:
var form = new Mozilla.SendToDevice();
form.init();
By default the init() function will look for a form with an HTML id of send-to-device. If you need to pass another id, you can do so directly:
var form = new Mozilla.SendToDevice('my-custom-form-id');
form.init();
