include segmentio/analytics-php

Documentation

The bulk of the documentation is stored in the Resources/doc folder in this bundle

Installation

Installing the bundle via packagist is the quickest and simplest method of installing the bundle. Here are the steps:

Step 1: Composer require

$ php composer.phar require "farmatholin/segment-io-bundle":"^1.3"

Step 2: Enable the bundle in the kernel (Symfony < 3.4)

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = array(
        // ...
        new Farmatholin\SegmentIoBundle\SegmentIoBundle(),
        // ...
    );
}

That's it! You are ready to use Segment.io with symfony2.

Configuration

Required segment write key:

Symfony 4.X || 5.X || 6.X :

# config/packages/segment_io.yaml

segment_io:
    write_key: "%env(SEGMENTIO_KEY)%"  # add your key
    guest_id: "guest" # default guest. Guest id for annotation Track and Page
    env: prod #default prod. Can be prod (sending to segment) and dev (not sending)
    data_residency: Oregon #default Oregon. Can be Oregon, Dublin, Signapore or Sydney. Overwritten by host option
    options:
        consumer: socket #default
        debug: false #default
        ssl: false #default
        max_queue_size: 10000 #default
        flush_at: 100 #default
        timeout: 0.5 #default
        filename: null #default
        host:  #default not set - uses segment default api

Symfony 2.X || 3.X

# app/config/config.yml

    segment_io:
        write_key: "%your_key%" #add your key
        guest_id: "guest" # default guest. Guest id for annotation Track and Page
        env: prod #default prod. Can be prod (sending to segment) and dev (not sending)
        data_residency: Oregon #default Oregon. Can be Oregon, Dublin, Signapore or Sydney. Overwritten by host option
        options:
            consumer: socket #default
            debug: false #default
            ssl: false #default
            max_queue_size: 10000 #default
            flush_at: 100 #default
            timeout: 0.5 #default
            filename: null #default
            host: #default not set - uses segment default api.

Data Residency

Segment allows the usage of regional infrastructure. If your Segment plan supports this, you can set the data_residency option to either Oregon, Dublin, Singapore or Sydney. If you set the option.host value, the data_residency setting is ignored and the host option is used.

Usage

Get segment_io.analytics service from the service container and start using it:

$analytics = $this->get('segment_io.analytics');
$analytics->page([]);

Or using Annotations (Page and Track)

User for annotations is getting from TokenStorage. If user doesn't exit, id set to guest or from configuration 'guest_id'

use Farmatholin\SegmentIoBundle\Configuration\Page;
use Farmatholin\SegmentIoBundle\Configuration\Track;

/**
     * @Route("/", name="homepage")
     *
     * @Page(
     *     name="index",
     *     category="page",
     *     properties={"foo":"bar"}
     * )
     * @Track(
     *     event="visit homepage",
     *     properties={"bar":"foo"},
     *     useTimestamp=true,
     *     context={"aa":"bb"}
     * )
     */
    public function indexAction(Request $request)
    {
        // your code
    }

Or using dependency injection:

use Farmatholin\SegmentIoBundle\Util\SegmentIoProvider;
    
    /**
     * @Route("/", name="homepage", methods={"GET"})
     *
     * @param SegmentIoProvider $segmentIoProvider
     */
    public function index(SegmentIoProvider $segmentIoProvider) {
        $segmentIoProvider->track([
            'userId' => 123, // or 'guest' if not available
            'event' => 'visit homepage',
            'properties' => [
                'foo' => 'bar'
            ] 
        ]);
        $segmentIoProvider->flush();
        
        // your code
    }
