astro-consent

A privacy-first, zero-dependency cookie consent banner for Astro projects — built for speed, compliance, and total visual control.

Designed and maintained by Velohost.

Why astro-consent?

Most cookie consent solutions are bloated, opaque, or tied to third-party services.

astro-consent is built differently:

• No trackers
• No remote calls
• No analytics SDKs
• No vendor lock-in
• No runtime dependencies

Just a fast, deterministic, developer-controlled consent layer that respects user privacy and legal boundaries.

---

✨ Features

• ✅ GDPR / UK GDPR friendly
• 🍪 Consent categories: Essential, Analytics, Marketing
• 🎛️ Preferences modal with toggle switches
• ⚡ Zero runtime dependencies
• 🎨 Fully themeable via CSS variables
• 🧠 Frontend-controlled script loading
• 🧩 Native Astro integration
• 🧾 Built-in TypeScript declarations
• 🛠️ CLI installer & remover
• 🔁 Clean uninstall with no residue
• 🌍 Framework-agnostic frontend API

---

📦 Installation (Required)

This package uses both an Astro integration and a CLI installer.

1️⃣ Install the package

npm install astro-consent

This step is required so Astro can import the integration at build time.

---

2️⃣ Run the installer

npx astro-consent

This will automatically:

• Inject the Astro integration into astro.config.*
• Create src/cookiebanner.css for theme control
• Enable the consent banner across your site

No manual wiring required.

---

❌ Uninstall

npx astro-consent remove

This cleanly removes:

• The integration entry
• Generated files
• All banner logic

No orphaned config. No hidden state.

---

🔧 Astro Integration Usage

import astroConsent from "astro-consent";

export default {
  integrations: [
    astroConsent({
      siteName: "My Website",
      policyUrl: "https://example.com/privacy-policy",
      consent: {
        days: 30,
        storageKey: "astro-cookie-consent"
      },
      categories: {
        analytics: false,
        marketing: false
      }
    })
  ]
};

Configuration notes

• policyUrl
  A full, public URL to your Privacy or Cookie Policy page.
  This is linked directly from the consent banner.

• consent.days
  How long (in days) consent is stored before the user is asked again.

• consent.storageKey
  The localStorage key used to persist consent.
  You may change this freely if you need per-site or per-environment isolation.

• categories.analytics
  Allows analytics scripts to load only after consent.
  Typical use: Plausible, self-hosted analytics, Google Analytics.

• categories.marketing
  Allows marketing and advertising scripts to load only after consent.
  Typical use: ad pixels, remarketing tags, embedded social trackers.

Scripts outside the essential category must be conditionally loaded.

---

🧠 Frontend API

window.cookieConsent.get();
window.cookieConsent.set({ essential: true, analytics: true });
window.cookieConsent.reset();

🧾 TypeScript

TypeScript declarations are included in the package.

No separate @types install is required.

---

🎨 Theming

All visuals are controlled via:

src/cookiebanner.css

You must ensure this file is included globally.

Recommended import (Astro)

Import the stylesheet once in your main layout or entry file:

import "../cookiebanner.css";

This guarantees the banner styles are available on every page.

• This file is never overwritten
• All colours, spacing, radius, and animations are controlled via CSS variables
• Full visual control with zero JavaScript theming

---

🔐 Privacy

• No cookies before consent
• No tracking without permission
• No external requests
• Stored locally with TTL
