Tealium IQ tag manager

FastBoot Ready!

For more information about this addon, please visit the Ember Tracker website.

Minimum Requirements

  • Ember 3+
  • Ember CLI
  • IE9+ (When using the Tealium mixin with the onload setting.

Use With Ember 2.x

For use with Ember 2.x, use version 0.5.2.

For versions less than 2.3, you'll need to install the ember-getowner-polyfill addon.

Setup

First, install the addon via:

ember install ember-tracker

Configuring Google Analytics

After you've installed the addon, open your config file located in config/environment.js. Next, add a new object to the ENV variable called emberTracker. Finally, add an object on it called analyticsSettings with your trackingId. Your config should look something similar to:

[...]
module.exports = function(environment) {
    var ENV = {
        [...]
        APP: {
            // Here you can pass flags/options to your application instance
            // when it is created
        },
        emberTracker: {
            analyticsSettings: {
                trackingId: 'UA-########-#',
            },
        },
    };
[...]

Feel free to change your trackingId based on the environment you're in.

Now, you can add the GoogleAnalyticsRoute mixin to your Router to start tracking pageviews and inject the service into your controllers/components. Learn how!

Options

There are three options available for Google Analytics you may want to use in your environment.js file. They are:

  • LOG_PAGEVIEW (boolean) - Logs all pageview events to the console.
  • LOG_EVENTS (boolean) - Logs all event, timing and network (social) requests to the console.
  • onload (boolean) - Lazy loads Google Analytics after the window.onload function fires.
  • createOptions (object) - This will get JSON.stringify encoded and passed to the create object as the last parameter.
  • afterCreate (string) - Appended to the JavaScript after the call to ga('create', 'UA-####');. Use this to run JavaScript after the "create" function, such as Optimizely's "activeUniversalAnalytics" call. Although this is a string, yit must represent valid JavaScript.

Configuring Tealium IQ

To allow Tealium, simply open the config/environment.js file and add a new object to the ENV variable called emberTracker. Finally, add an object called tealiumSettings with a your accountName as an additional property. Your config should look something similar to:

[...]
module.exports = function(environment) {
    var ENV = {
        [...]
        APP: {
            // Here you can pass flags/options to your application instance
            // when it is created
        },
        emberTracker: {
            tealiumSettings: {
                accountName: 'myAccName',
            },
        },
    };
[...]

Options

There is one option available for Tealium you may wish to use in your environment.js file. It is:

  • onload (boolean) - Loads Tealium after the window.onload event fires. It uses addEventListener which requires >= IE9.

Notes

That's it! The addon will take care of using the dev, qa or production environments for you. For reference, it determines which environment to use in Tealium based on the following conditions:

You're now ready to add the TealiumRoute mixin to your Router to start updating Tealium on new routes. Learn how!

Ember Environment Tealium Environment
development dev
production prod
all others qa

Additional Reading

I've put together more documentation on the ember-tracker website on how to use both the Google Analytics services as well as updating Tealium during route transitions.
