However, you can handle errors and warnings in the way that you require. To do this, implement a callback function performing the required actions and assign it to the onIncidentOccurred option. Within this function, you can use information about the incident that occurred. This information can be accessed from the target field of the object passed to the callback function as a parameter. This information includes the following.

  • id
    Contains the ID of the incident. The full list of IDs can be found in the Errors and Warnings section.

    Contains the type of the incident. This field equals "error" for errors or "warning" for warnings.

    Contains the text passed to the browser console. This text includes the content of the args field, if there are any.

Default Value: undefined

By default, the widget occupies the entire area of the container. If you need to set a particular size for the widget, different from the container's size, assign a height and width in pixels to height and width properties of the size object.

Using the size object, you can hide the widget. For this purpose, simply assign 0 to both the height and width of the widget.

The size configuration object reserves space for the main widget elements, while displaying a tooltip may require extra space. To reserve the area around the widget for the tooltip, you can apply a margin to the widget's container.
