Wrapper for Matomo (aka. Piwik) analytics tracker for applications based on Angular 11. This is a fork based on Arnaud73/ngx-matomo
Use npm
or yarn
to add the module to your current project:
npm install --save ngx-matomo-revived
You can add Matomo either via script tag or using the MatomoInjector in your root component.
Bootrapping this application is easy. Import MatomoModule
into your root NgModule
.
...
import { MatomoModule, MatomoModuleConfiguration, MATOMO_CONFIGURATION } from 'ngx-matomo-revived';
@NgModule({
...
imports: [MatomoModule, ...],
providers: [
{
provide: MATOMO_CONFIGURATION,
useValue: {
trackers: [{ trackerUrl: YOUR_MATOMO_URL, siteId: YOUR_SITE_ID }],
} as MatomoModuleConfiguration,
},
],
})
export class AppModule {}
To enable Matomo via your root component you can now inject the MatomoInjector in your root component.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { MatomoInjector } from 'ngx-matomo-revived';
@Component({
selector: 'app',
template: `<router-outlet></router-outlet>`,
})
export class AppComponent {
constructor(private matomoInjector: MatomoInjector) {
this.matomoInjector.init();
}
}
Once that's done you can import MatomoTracker
into any component in your application.
// component
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { MatomoTracker } from 'ngx-matomo-revived';
@Component({
selector: 'app',
template: `<router-outlet></router-outlet>`,
})
export class AppComponent {
constructor(private matomoTracker: MatomoTracker) {}
ngOnInit() {
this.matomoTracker.setUserId('UserId');
this.matomoTracker.setDocumentTitle('ngx-matomo-revived Test');
}
}
To illustrate the set up, here's the code to inject into your header to initialize Matomo in your application. Matomo's site has the detailed documentation on how to set up communication between Matomo and your application. Make sure you replace the $MATOMO_URL with your Matomo server and $SITE_ID with your site id.
<!-- Matomo -->
<script type="text/javascript">
var _paq = _paq || [];
_paq.push(['trackPageView']);
_paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
(function () {
var u = '//$MATOMO_URL/';
_paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u + 'matomo.php']);
_paq.push(['setSiteId', $SIE_ID]);
var d = document,
g = d.createElement('script'),
s = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
g.type = 'text/javascript';
g.async = true;
g.defer = true;
g.src = u + 'matomo.js';
s.parentNode.insertBefore(g, s);
})();
</script>
<!-- End Matomo Code -->
To track pages automatically use the following code snippet in your app.component.ts
:
...
export class AppComponent {
constructor(
private matomoTracker: MatomoTracker,
private matomoInjector: MatomoInjector,
private router: Router,
) {
this.matomoInjector.init();
this.router.events.subscribe((val) => {
if (val instanceof NavigationEnd) {
this.matomoTracker.setCustomUrl(val.urlAfterRedirects);
this.matomoTracker.trackPageView();
this.matomoTracker.setReferrerUrl(val.urlAfterRedirects);
}
});
}
}
For now tracking events and actions is manual and is not injected into the html.
<button (click)="whatHappensOnClick(1)"></button>
// component
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { MatomoTracker } from 'ngx-matomo-revived';
@Component({
selector: 'app',
templateUrl: './myButton.html',
})
export class MyComponent {
constructor(private matomoTracker: MatomoTracker) {}
whatHappensOnClick(someVal) {
/*
* some code...
*/
this.matomoTracker.trackEvent('category', 'action', 'name', someVal);
}
}
This module is lousily inspired from Angular2Piwik, which was also inspired from Angulartics 2.
Matomo's site has the detailed documentation on how to use Matomo and integrate it in an application. See also:
