ReactGA.event sends event title with first letter captitalised

[sakshambhatt]

ReactGA initialize, gives options to make the titleCase boolean false. Could such an option be added in react-ga4 as well?

So that following code, leads to add_to_cart and not in Add_to_cart?

ReactGA.initialize( process.env.GA_MEASUREMENT_ID, { gaOptions: { titleCase: false } } );
ReactGA.event({
      category: "shopping",
      action: "add_to_cart",
      label: "name",
});

You can use the following code for add_to_cart.

ReactGA.event("add_to_cart", {
  items: [{ item_name: "name" }],
});

Thank you for the above comment. The above link has many relevant events, and that certainly helps. But what if I were to create a custom event like for example, price_compared or view_certificate? It becomes increasingly difficult with custom events if there is existing data as I will have both Price_compared and price_compared.

I don't understand what you meant. If you use ReactGA.event(name, params) method signature you won't have titleCase.

@sakshambhatt, I have the same issue. Maybe the suggestion of Codler is not clear. You can do like this:

ReactGA.event("add_to_cart", {
      event_category: "shopping",
      event_label: "name",
});

It'll result in no titleCase as you expected.

Thank you @quyctd , I tried this and it works. @codler , it would be really appreciated if a sample were added to README like the one suggested by @quyctd in above comment. In fact, I will raise a PR myself.

I think the bigger issue here is presumptively adding title case. Shouldn't user input be kept as is?
