npm version Build Status

Features

Install

npm install react-i13n-ga

Usage

You will need to create a instance of react-i13n-ga first, then use getPlugin to get the plugin object, then pass it into setupI13n provided by react-i13n, then it will help to decorate your Top Level Component with i13n react-i13n-ga plugin functionalities.

var reactI13nGoogleAnalytics = require('react-i13n-ga');
var setupI13n = require('react-i13n').setupI13n;
 
var reactI13nGoogleAnalytics = new ReactI13nGoogleAnalytics([your tracking id]); // create reactI13nGoogleAnalytics instance with your tracking id
// or
var reactI13nGoogleAnalytics = new ReactI13nGoogleAnalytics({
    trackingId: [mandatory, your tracking id],
    cookieDomain: [optional, cookie domain name, by default "auto"],
    name: [optional, customized tracker name],
    userId: [optional]
}); // create reactI13nGoogleAnalytics instance with config object
 
// Suppose that Application is your top level component, use setupI13n with this plugin
Application = setupI13n(Application, {}, [reactI13nGoogleAnalytics.getPlugin()]);

Pageview Event

var ReactI13n = require('react-i13n').ReactI13n;
 
// fire pageview at whatever you want, typically we do it at componentDidMount
ReactI13n.getInstance().execute('pageview', {
    tracker: [tracker name], // optional
    location: [page location], // get the page location, or keep empty to let google analytics handle it
    url: [page url], // get the page url, or keep empty to let google analytics handle it
    title: [page title] // get the page title, or keep empty to let google analytics handle it
});
 
// in component (React 0.14+)
this.props.i13n.executeEvent('pageview', {
    tracker: [tracker name], // optional
    location: [page location],
    url: [page url],
    title: [page title]
});

Click Event

  • Integrate event tracking
  • Define the keys in i13nModel:
    • tracker - tracker name, default is undefined.
    • category - Typically the object that was interacted with, default set as all.
    • action - The type of interaction, default set as click.
    • label - Useful for categorizing events, default set as the value of i13nNode.getText.
    • value - Values must be non-negative. Useful to pass counts (e.g. 4 times).
    • nonInteraction - Boolean to indicate a non-interaction event.

You can integrate I13nAnchor provided by react-i13n to track the normal links.

var I13nAnchor = require('react-i13n').I13nAnchor;
 
// in template, will fire event beacon as ga('send', 'event', 'foo', 'click', 'Foo');
<I13nAnchor i13nModel={{category: 'foo', action: 'click'}}>Foo</I13nAnchor>

You can also integrate integrate createI13nNode or I13nMixin to get your custom component be tracked

 
var createI13nNode = require('react-i13n').createI13nNode;
var Foo = React.createClass({
    ...
});
 
Foo = createI13nNode(Foo, {
    isLeafNode: true,
    bindClickEvent: true,
    follow: false
});
 
// in template
<Foo i13nModel={{category: 'foo', action: 'click', label: 'Foo'}}>
    // if Foo is clicked, it will fire event beacon as ga('send', 'event', 'foo', 'click', 'Foo');
    ...
</Foo>
 
var I13nMixin = require('react-i13n').I13nMixin;
var Foo = React.createClass({
    mixins: [I13nMixin],
    // you can set the default props or pass them as props when you are using Foo
    getDefaultProps: {
        isLeafNode: true,
        bindClickEvent: true,
        follow: false
    }
    ...
});
 
// in template
<Foo i13nModel={{category: 'foo', action: 'click', label: 'Foo'}}>
    // if Foo is clicked, it will fire event beacon as ga('send', 'event', 'foo', 'click', 'Foo');
    ...
</Foo>

For better instrumentation integration, you can leverage the inherit architecture, e.g., create a parent and define the category with default tracker, or specify tracker, so that all the links inside will apply it.

 
var createI13nNode = require('react-i13n').createI13nNode;
var I13nAnchor = require('react-i13n').createI13nNode;
var Foo = React.createClass({
    ...
    render: function () {
        return (
            // all the links inside Foo will apply category=foo as their i13n model
            <I13nAnchor href="/foo">...</I13nAnchor>
            <I13nAnchor href="/bar">...</I13nAnchor>
            <I13nAnchor href="/baz">...</I13nAnchor>
        );
    }
});
 
Foo = createI13nNode(Foo, {
    isLeafNode: false,
    bindClickEvent: false,
    follow: false
});
 
// in template
<Foo i13nModel={{tracker: 'myTracker', category: 'foo'}} />

Tracker Settings

You can also use the following methods to set properties of GA like User Id or dimension.

var userId = 'aa4ebd41203df5b8639e9fe48d4c6c7de7c4b053';
var dimension1 = 'administrator';
ReactI13n.getInstance().execute('setUsername', { userId: userId });
ReactI13n.getInstance().execute('setSuperProperties', { dimension1: dimension1 });
ReactI13n.getInstance().execute('setUserProperties', { dimension1: dimension1 });
ReactI13n.getInstance().execute('setUserPropertiesOnce', { dimension1: dimension1 });

ga command queue

You can also execute ga command queue by calling executeEvent. It's also possible to execute command on specific tracker . The following are sample usage:

// send by default tracker
this.props.i13n.executeEvent('command', {
    commandName: 'send',
    arguments: [
        hitType,
        [...fields],
        [fieldsObject])
    ]
});
 
// send by specific tracker
this.props.i13n.executeEvent('command', {
    tracker: 'myTracker', // tracker name: myTracker
    commandName: 'send',
    arguments: [
       ...
    ]
});
 
// require on default tracker
this.props.i13n.executeEvent('command', {
    commandName: 'require',
    arguments: [
        pluginName,
        [pluginOptions]
    ]
});
 
// require plugin for specific tracker
this.props.i13n.executeEvent('command', {
    tracker: 'myTracker',
    commandName: 'require',
    arguments: [
       ...
    ]
});
 
// more and more, such as ga('[myTracker.]set', ...)
// ...
