Reactive intercom integration for Meteor

Meteor Intercom

A package to use intercom.io easily with Meteor.

Installation

Intercom can be installed with Meteorite. From inside a Meteorite-managed app:

$ mrt add intercom

API

Ensure you have Meteor.settings.intercom.secret and Meteor.settings.public.intercom.id defined to the values provided to you by Intercom.

By default, the package will send up the user's id, creation date, and hash (if defined, see below). To send custom data, set:

IntercomSettings.userInfo = function(user, info) {
  // add properties to the info object, for instance:
  if (user.services.google) {
    info.email = user.services.google.email;
    info['Name'] = user.services.google.given_name + ' ' + user.services.google.family_name;
  }
}

Notes

If you want to use Intercom's secure mode (you do), you need to add a intercomHash property to your user objects. To make new users get such a property, you can do something like:

Accounts.onCreateUser(function(options, user) {
  user.intercomHash = IntercomHash(user);

  if (options.profile)
    user.profile = options.profile;

  return user;
});  

If you need to update your existing users, you could use Meteor Migrations.
