=======================

Cordova (PhoneGap) 7.0+ Plugin to connect to Google's native Universal Analytics SDK

Comments

This is a fork of google-analytics-pligin by Dan Wilson. I removed all platfoms but iOS and Android and fixed google-play-services issue appling this PR.

Prerequisites:
* A Cordova 7.0+ project for iOS or Android
* A Mobile App property through the Google Analytics Admin Console
* (Android) Google Play Services SDK installed via Android SDK Manager

Installing

This plugin follows the Cordova 7.0+ plugin spec, so it can be installed through the Cordova CLI in your existing Cordova project:
``bash
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-google-analytics-fluxit
`

Release note

v1.0.0 -- api change from `window.analytics` to `window.ga`, 'analytics' is deprecated since 1.0.0 and you should use the new api 'ga',
because in the next release we are removing the analytics.

v1.7.x -- since this version there are new parameters in some of the old methods like startTrackerWithId('UA-XXXX-YY', 30)
and this is causing errors for those who are using the ionic 2(ionic-native) or ionic 1 (ngCordova);
these wrapper interfaces don't have the new parameters at the time we did the changes; so please update you ionic framework to the lastest version.

v1.7.11 -- since this version there is back compatibility with the new and old parameters in the method startTrackerWithId('UA-XXXX-YY', 30) to avoid loading issues reported.

v1.9.0 -- since this version the windows platform is supported.

JavaScript Usage

All the following methods accept optional success and error callbacks after all other available parameters.

`js
//In your 'deviceready' handler, set up your Analytics tracker:
window.ga.startTrackerWithId('UA-XXXX-YY', 30)
//where UA-XXXX-YY is your Google Analytics Mobile App property and 30 is the dispatch period (optional)

//To track a Screen (PageView):
window.ga.trackView('Screen Title')

//To track a Screen (PageView) w/ campaign details:
window.ga.trackView('Screen Title', 'my-scheme://content/1111?utm_source=google&utm_campaign=my-campaign')

//To track a Screen (PageView) and create a new session:
window.ga.trackView('Screen Title', '', true)

//To track an Event:
window.ga.trackEvent('Category', 'Action', 'Label', Value)// Label and Value are optional, Value is numeric

//To track an Event and create a new session:
window.ga.trackEvent('Category', 'Action', 'Label', Value, true)// Label, Value and newSession are optional, Value is numeric, newSession is true/false

//To track custom metrics:
//(trackMetric doesn't actually send a hit, it's behaving more like the addCustomDimension() method.
// The metric is afterwards added to every hit (view, event, error, etc...) sent, but the defined scope of the custom metric in analytics backend
// (hit or product) will determine, at processing time, which hits are associated with the metric value.)
window.ga.trackMetric(Key, Value) // Key and value are numeric type, Value is optional (omit value to unset metric)

//To track an Exception:
window.ga.trackException('Description', Fatal)//where Fatal is boolean

//To track User Timing (App Speed):
window.ga.trackTiming('Category', IntervalInMilliseconds, 'Variable', 'Label') // where IntervalInMilliseconds is numeric

//To add a Transaction (Ecommerce) -- Deprecated on 1.9.0 will be removed on next minor version (1.10.0).
window.ga.addTransaction('ID', 'Affiliation', Revenue, Tax, Shipping, 'Currency Code')// where Revenue, Tax, and Shipping are numeric

//To add a Transaction Item (Ecommerce) -- Deprecated on 1.9.0 will be removed on next minor version (1.10.0).
window.ga.addTransactionItem('ID', 'Name', 'SKU', 'Category', Price, Quantity, 'Currency Code')// where Price and Quantity are numeric

//To add a Custom Dimension
//(The dimension is afterwards added to every hit (view, event, error, etc...) sent, but the defined scope of the custom dimension in analytics backend
// (hit or product) will determine, at processing time, which hits are associated with the dimension value.)
window.ga.addCustomDimension(Key, 'Value', success, error)
//Key should be integer index of the dimension i.e. send 1 instead of dimension1 for the first custom dimension you are tracking. e.g. window.ga.addCustomDimension(1, 'Value', success, error)
//Use empty string as value to unset custom dimension.

//To set a UserId:
window.ga.setUserId('my-user-id')

//To set a specific app version:
window.ga.setAppVersion('1.33.7')

//To get a specific variable using this key list https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/parameters:
//for example to get campaign name:
window.ga.getVar('cn', function(result){ console.log(result);})

//To set a specific variable using this key list https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/parameters:
//for example to set session control:
window.ga.setVar('sc', 'end', function(result){ console.log(result);})

//To manually dispatch any data (this is not implemented in browser platform):
window.ga.dispatch()

//To set a anonymize Ip address:
window.ga.setAnonymizeIp(true)

//To set Opt-out:
window.ga.setOptOut(true)

//To enabling Advertising Features in Google Analytics allows you to take advantage of Remarketing, Demographics & Interests reports, and more:
window.ga.setAllowIDFACollection(true)

To enable verbose logging:
window.ga.debugMode()
// set's dry run mode on Android and Windows platform, so that all hits are only echoed back by the google analytics service and no actual hit is getting tracked!
// Android quirk: verbose logging within javascript console is not supported. To see debug responses from analytics execute
// adb shell setprop log.tag.GAv4 DEBUG and then adb logcat -v time -s GAv4 to list messages
// (see https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/analytics/Logger)

//To enable/disable automatic reporting of uncaught exceptions
window.ga.enableUncaughtExceptionReporting(Enable, success, error)// where Enable is boolean
`

Example use ionic (Ionic Native)


`shell
npm i --save @ionic-native/google-analytics
`
`javascript
import { GoogleAnalytics } from '@ionic-native/google-analytics';
import { Platform } from 'ionic-angular';

...

constructor(private ga: GoogleAnalytics, private platform: Platform) { }

initializeApp() {
this.platform.ready().then(() => {
this.ga.startTrackerWithId('UA-00000000-0')
.then(() => {
console.log('Google analytics is ready now');
//the component is ready and you can call any method here
this.ga.debugMode();
this.ga.setAllowIDFACollection(true);
})
.catch(e => console.log('Error starting GoogleAnalytics', e));
});
}
`

Issue for using trackMetric in Ionic: currently @ionic-native/google-analytics defines the typescript signature with trackMetric(key: string, value?: any).
So be aware to pass the metric index as a string formatted integer and a non empty string as a value, like window.ga.trackMetric('1', 'Value', success, error)!

Installing Without the CLI

Copy the files manually into your project and add the following to your config.xml files:
`xml



`
`xml



`
`xml



`

You also will need to manually add the Google Analytics SDK files:
* Download the Google Analytics SDK 3.0 for iOS and/or Android
* For iOS, add the downloaded Google Analytics SDK header files and libraries according to the Getting Started documentation
* For Android, add libGoogleAnalyticsServices.jar to your Cordova Android project's /libs directory and build path
* For Windows Phone, add the GoogleAnalyticsSDK package via NuGet
* For Windows 10 (UWP), add the UWP.SDKforGoogleAnalytics.Native package via NuGet


`javascript
var analyticsService = require('app/data/AnalyticsService');

analyticsService.trackView('Home');
