Window is not defined.

Hi,

First off, thanks for making this 👏 . Unforntelay I have some problems making this work. Would love to get some help.

I am trying to run this

import { FullStoryClient } from 'react-fullstory-component';

const client = new FullStoryClient({
    host: 'www.fullstory.com',
    orgKey: 'fake',
    iframe: true
});

client.render();
client.setSession('mysessionId', {
    displyName: 'visual identifier in list',
    address_str: 'some address string',
    returnVisit_bool: true,
    personId_int: '1234'
});

But window is not defined.

Do you know why?

I am using react 15.4.1

Sorry for the delay on this, did not see the email. What is happening is the transpiled code is assuming a window object will be provided through constructor and does not happen so it is undefined. Line 75 should get the global but it I admit it is confusing code. I will add in a fix that changes the variable names and does a check for global window vs local window object. It's bad practice to name locally scoped variables similar to browser globals and I missed it.

If you have not solved this, you can simply add window to the constructor call to force the global window object down. I will add this to the documentation also.

const client = new FullStoryClient({
    host: 'www.fullstory.com',
    orgKey: 'fake',
    iframe: true
}, window);

Thanks for the feedback 👍. This may be a dumb question, but do you need to pass window to FullStoryClient? Can't you use the global window value directly?

you can but the hoisting of the same named variable is causing the problem.
