@vskstudio/takt-angular

Idiomatic Angular wrapper for Takt, privacy-friendly analytics. Standalone APIs for Angular 17+.

Install

pnpm add @vskstudio/takt-angular @vskstudio/takt-core

Setup

Register Takt once at bootstrap with provideTakt. It boots only in the browser, fires the initial pageview, wires up the requested autocapture, and disposes everything when the app is destroyed.

import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { provideTakt } from '@vskstudio/takt-angular'
import { AppComponent } from './app/app.component'

bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {
  providers: [
    provideTakt({
      // domain defaults to location.hostname, endpoint to /api/event
      outbound: true, // auto-track outbound links
      files: true, // auto-track downloads (or pass ['pdf', 'zip'])
      // spa: true, respectDnt: true, excludeLocalhost: true (defaults)
    }),
  ],
})

SSR-safe: on the server provideTakt is inert and TaktService no-ops.

Track events imperatively

Inject TaktService anywhere. Every method is a never-throwing no-op before init or on the server.

import { Component, inject } from '@angular/core'
import { TaktService } from '@vskstudio/takt-angular'

@Component({ /* ... */ })
export class CheckoutComponent {
  private readonly takt = inject(TaktService)

  buy() {
    this.takt.track('Purchase', {
      props: { plan: 'pro' },
      revenue: { amount: '29.00', currency: 'EUR' },
    })
  }

  // takt.pageview(), takt.optOut(), takt.optIn() are also available.
}

Track clicks declaratively

The taktEvent directive resolves the live instance at click time.

import { TaktEventDirective } from '@vskstudio/takt-angular'

@Component({
  standalone: true,
  imports: [TaktEventDirective],
  template: `
    <button
      taktEvent="Signup"
      [taktProps]="{ plan: 'pro' }"
      [taktRevenue]="{ amount: '29.00', currency: 'EUR' }"
    >
      Sign up
    </button>
  `,
})
export class SignupComponent {}

Widgets

Standalone, server-rendered widget components. The badge is an <img> (SVG); the embed is a sandboxed <iframe> (sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin", referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin"). Both lazy-load.

import { TaktBadgeComponent, TaktEmbedComponent } from '@vskstudio/takt-angular'

@Component({
  standalone: true,
  imports: [TaktBadgeComponent, TaktEmbedComponent],
  template: `
    <takt-badge domain="example.com" variant="d" glyph="dash" lang="fr" alt="Visits" />
    <takt-embed domain="example.com" theme="dark" [width]="404" [height]="264" />
  `,
})
export class StatsComponent {}

<takt-badge> inputs: domain (required), variant ('a' | 'b' | 'd'), glyph ('unplug' | 'dash' | 'off' | 'eyeoff'), lang ('fr' | 'en'), host, and alt — an overridable label that defaults to "takt".

<takt-embed> inputs: domain (required), theme ('light' | 'dark' | 'auto'), lang, host, width (404), height (264), title ("takt").

The optional host input must be an absolute http(s) URL — core validates it (throwing on anything else, e.g. a javascript: URL) and reduces a valid host to its origin (dropping any path or query). An empty host targets the same origin. The embed src is built by core's trusted URL builder and only then passed through bypassSecurityTrustResourceUrl, so the sanitizer bypass only ever trusts a scheme-checked URL.

Read public stats programmatically with createStats:

import { createStats } from '@vskstudio/takt-angular'

const stats = createStats({ domain: 'example.com' })
const summary = await stats.summary({ period: '7d' })
const series = await stats.timeseries({ period: '30d' })

Framework-agnostic custom element

For non-Angular pages (or a plain <script> tag), use the self-contained <takt-analytics> element. Privacy attributes are on by default; set them to false to disable.

import { defineTaktElement } from '@vskstudio/takt-angular/element'
defineTaktElement() // also auto-runs on import

<takt-analytics domain="example.com" outbound files></takt-analytics>

Via CDN (bundles core, no build step):

<script type="module" src="https://unpkg.com/@vskstudio/takt-angular/dist/element/index.js"></script>
<takt-analytics></takt-analytics>
