Unofficial PostHog SDK for Symfony

This is the unofficial Symfony SDK for PostHog.

Getting Started

Using this posthog-symfony SDK provides you with the following benefits:

  • Quickly integrate and configure PostHog for your Symfony app
  • Out of the box, each event will contain the following data by default
    • The currently authenticated user
    • The Symfony environment

Install

To install the SDK you will need to be using Composer in your project. To install it please see the docs.

composer require sanderverkuil/posthog-symfony

Enable the Bundle

If you installed the package using the Flex recipe, the bundle will be automatically enabled. Otherwise, enable it by adding it to the list of registered bundles in the Kernel.php file of your project:

class AppKernel extends \Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles(): array
    {
        return [
            // ...
            new \PostHog\PostHogBundle\PostHogBundle(),
        ];
    }

    // ...
}

The bundle will be enabled in all environments by default. To enable event reporting, you'll need to add a key (see the next step).

Configure

Add the PostHog key of your project. Add the key to your config/packages/posthog.yaml file.

Keep in mind that by leaving the key value empty (or undeclared), you will disable the PostHog integration:.

post_hog:
    key: "<ph_project_api_key>"
    host: "https://app.posthog.com/" # Or https://eu.posthog.com/ for EU

Optional: use custom HTTP factory/transport

This uses HTTPlug to remain transport-agnostic, you need to install two packages that provide php-http/async-client-implementation and psr/http-message-implementation.

The suggested packages are:

  • the Symfony HTTP Client (symfony/http-client)
  • Guzzle's message factory (http-interop/http-factory-guzzle)

Maintained versions

  • 0.x is actively maintained and developed on the master branch, and uses PostHog SDK 3.0;

Contributing to the SDK
