+======================================
+ Google Analytics (gtag.js) -- traffic analysis
+======================================
+
+`Google Analytics`_ is the well-known web analytics service from
+Google.  The product is aimed more at marketers than webmasters or
+technologists, supporting integration with AdWords and other e-commence
+features.
+This uses the gtags.js version of google analytics.
+
+.. _`Google Analytics`: https://developers.google.com/analytics/
+
+
+.. google-analytics-installation:
+
+Installation
+============
+
+To start using the Google Analytics integration, you must have installed
+the django-analytical package and have added the ``analytical``
+application to :const:`INSTALLED_APPS` in your project
+:file:`settings.py` file. See :doc:`../install` for details.
+
+Next you need to add the Google Analytics template tag to your
+templates. This step is only needed if you are not using the generic
+:ttag:`analytical.*` tags.  If you are, skip to
+:ref:`google-analytics-configuration`.
+
+The Google Analytics tracking code is inserted into templates using a
+template tag.  Load the :mod:`google_gtag_js` template tag library and
+insert the :ttag:`google_gtag_js` tag.  Because every page that you
+want to track must have the tag, it is useful to add it to your base
+template.  Insert the tag at the top of the HTML head::
+
+    {% load google_gtag_js %}
+    <html>
+    <head>
+    {% google_gtag_js %}
+    ...
+
+    </head>
+    ...
+
+
+.. _google-analytics-configuration:
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+Before you can use the Google Analytics integration, you must first set
+your website property ID. Then you can set any analytics config variables
+you wish Google Analytics to track.
+
+
+.. _google-analytics-property-id:
+
+Setting the property ID
+-----------------------
+
+Every website you track with Google Analytics gets its own property ID,
+and the :ttag:`google_gtag_js` tag will include it in the rendered
+Javascript code.  You can find the web property ID on the overview page
+of your account.  Set :const:`GOOGLE_GTAG_JS_PROPERTY_ID` in the
+project :file:`settings.py` file::
+
+    GOOGLE_GTAG_JS_PROPERTY_ID = 'UA-XXXXXX-X'
+
+If you do not set a property ID, the tracking code will not be rendered.
+
+
+Google Analytics Tracking Config
+---------------------
+
+:ttag:`google_gtag_js` works by letting you use gtag.js 's
+'set' and 'config' `javascript commands
+<https://developers.google.com/gtagjs/reference/api>`_
+.  
+The 'set' gtag commands are inserted before the 'config' commands.  
+
+You are given the option to 'set' gtag values for a request
+via context variable ``google_gtag_js_set_data``. If used, this should be
+a json serializable object, to be used like ``gtag('set', <value>)``.
+
+Additionally, you can use ``google_gtag_js_set1`` though
+``google_gtag_js_set5``, which should each be key value pairs, to be
+used like ``gtag('set', <key>, <value>)``.  
+Key should be a string, and value a json serializable object (which includes strings).
+
+
+At the present, :ttag:`google_gtag_js` only supports
+configuring one 'GA_MEASUREMENT_ID' property.  
+The options for this config can be set in the following ways:
+
+1. Via setting: :const:`GOOGLE_GTAG_JS_DEFAULT_CONFIG` - which should
+   be a json serializable dictionary of all default config
+   options. This value will be used as the default config on all pages.
+2. Via the context variable ``google_gtag_js_config_data``, again a
+   json serializable dictionary.  
+   The resultant config options will be made from the default config
+   updated with the values of this 'per request' config.
+
+Note re config options:
+Provided you find the right key name, you should be able to configure
+the gtag tracking however you need it.  
+You can use :file:`settings.py` options such as::
+
+    GOOGLE_GTAG_JS_DEFAULT_CONFIG = {
+        'anonymize_ip': True,
+        'send_page_view': False,
+        'custom_map': {
+            'dimension<Index>': 'dimension_name',
+        },
+    }
+
+
+
+You may also like to create a context processor for setting the gtag
+'set' and 'config' options per request, that you add to the
+:data:`TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS` list in :file:`settings.py`, eg::
+
+    def process_google_gtag_options(request):
+        google_gtag_options = {}
+        google_gtag_options['google_gtag_js_set1'] = ('dimension1', request.some_data)
+        google_gtag_options['google_gtag_js_config_data'] = {
+            'currency': 'USD',
+            'country': 'US',
+            'custom_map': {'metric5': 'avg_page_load_time'},
+        }
+        return google_gtag_options
+
+
+
+Internal IP addresses
+---------------------
+
+Usually you do not want to track clicks from your development or
+internal IP addresses.  By default, if the tags detect that the client
+comes from any address in the :const:`GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_INTERNAL_IPS`
+setting, the tracking code is commented out.  It takes the value of
+:const:`ANALYTICAL_INTERNAL_IPS` by default (which in turn is
+:const:`INTERNAL_IPS` by default).  See :ref:`identifying-visitors` for
+important information about detecting the visitor IP address.
+
+
