This Pageflow Plugin will render the Piwik JavaScript snippet in your stories. This allows you to have your own analytics engine and not rely on third parties. At Scrollytelling we use this because we wish not having to show a cookie warning. Naturally, we also do not wish to track our visitors for anything more than just counting them.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'scrollytelling-piwik'

Bundle the plugin with your application by typing this on the command line:

$ bundle

Register this plugin in your Pageflow initializer.

# config/initializers/pageflow.rb
config.plugin(Scrollytelling::Piwik::Plugin.new url: "//example.com/analytics/", site_id: 1)

Furthermore after installing any Pageflow plugin it's a good idea to change your asset version. This will invalidate all server-side cache, most notably the cache that i18n-js uses to render the editor UI.

# config/initializers/assets.rb
Rails.application.config.assets.version = 'x.x.x'

Then restart your application server.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release to create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
