Javascript Configuration
Initialization#
Both in npm and standalone mode, EventNative accepts the following parameters.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| key * | Required. API key (How to get API key) |
| tracking_host | If not set, EventNative will do the best attempt to detect it automatically |
| cookie_name | Name of tracking cookie (__eventn_id by default) |
| ga_hook | If set to true, EventNative will automatically listen to Google Analytics events and collect them. |
| segment_hook | If set to true, EventNative will automatically listen to Segment's analytics.js event and collect them. |
| randomize_url | If set to true, EventNative will send events on a dynamic endpoint. It allows avoiding ad blockers. |
All parameters with documentation can be in the interface definition file. This file is also bundled with npm package.
Tracking#
If EventNative is not configured to listen to Google Analytics or Segment events, you need to track these events manually. Unlike other analytics providers, EventNative is schema-less by design. You can send any parameters you wish without having to reconfigure the backend.
id() sets the properties of the user (such as name, e-mail, internal id — any parameters are accepted)
eventN.id({
"name": "Man with No Name",
"email": "thegoods@western.com",
"id": "6"
})By default, a user_identification event will be sent. However, it can be changed by setting the second parameter to true.
eventN.id({...}, true);eventN.track() is used to record any event happens with user
eventN.track('{event_name}', {...event data})If id() has been called prior to track(), all user details will be included.
Also, do not include parameters such as page URL and user agent. EventNative collects this automatically!
