Build with Node.js ( 18 - 20) and Rush.

npm install -g @microsoft/rush
git clone https://github.com/snowplow/snowplow-javascript-tracker.git
rush update
`

Package Installation

With npm:

`bash
npm install @snowplow/browser-plugin-link-click-tracking
`

Usage

Initialize your tracker with the LinkClickTrackingPlugin:

`js
import { newTracker } from '@snowplow/browser-tracker';
import { LinkClickTrackingPlugin } from '@snowplow/browser-plugin-link-click-tracking';

newTracker('sp1', '{{collector}}', { plugins: [ LinkClickTrackingPlugin() ] }); // Also stores reference at module level
`

Then use the available functions from this package to track to all trackers which have been initialized with this plugin:

`js
import { enableLinkClickTracking } from '@snowplow/browser-plugin-link-click-tracking';

enableLinkClickTracking({ options: { ... }, psuedoClicks: true });
`

You can also explicitly track a click without installing listeners:

`js
import { trackLinkClick } from '@snowplow/browser-plugin-link-click-tracking';

trackLinkClick({ element: document.querySelector("a, area") });
trackLinkClick({ targetUrl: "http://example.com/" });
``
