react-native-mparticle
Installation
First, download the library from npm:
$ npm install react-native-mparticle --save
Second, install the native dependencies. You can use rnpm
(now part of react-native
core via link
) to add native dependencies automatically:
$ react-native link
Grab your mParticle key and secret from your app's dashboard and move on to the OS-specific instructions below.
iOS
Install the SDK using CocoaPods:
$ # Update your Podfile to depend on 'mParticle-Apple-SDK' version 7.2.0 or later
$ pod install
The mParticle SDK is initialized by calling the startWithOptions
method within the application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:
delegate call. Preferably the location of the initialization method call should be one of the last statements in the application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:
. The startWithOptions
method requires an options argument containing your key and secret and an initial Identity request.
Note that it is imperative for the SDK to be initialized in the
application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:
method. Other parts of the SDK rely on theUIApplicationDidBecomeActiveNotification
notification to function properly. Failing to start the SDK as indicated will impair it. Also, please do not use GCD'sdispatch_async
to start the SDK.
Swift
import mParticle_Apple_SDK
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
let mParticleOptions = MParticleOptions(key: "<<<App Key Here>>>", secret: "<<<App Secret Here>>>")
//Please see the Identity page for more information on building this object
let request = MPIdentityApiRequest()
request.email = "email@example.com"
mParticleOptions.identifyRequest = request
mParticleOptions.onIdentifyComplete = { (apiResult, error) in
NSLog("Identify complete. userId = %@ error = %@", apiResult?.user.userId.stringValue ?? "Null User ID", error?.localizedDescription ?? "No Error Available")
}
mParticleOptions.onAttributionComplete = { (attributionResult, error) in
NSLog(@"Attribution Complete. attributionResults = %@", attributionResult.linkInfo)
}
//Start the SDK
MParticle.sharedInstance().start(with: mParticleOptions)
return true
}
Objective-C
For apps supporting iOS 8 and above, Apple recommends using the import syntax for modules or semantic import. However, if you prefer the traditional CocoaPods and static libraries delivery mechanism, that is fully supported as well.
If you are using mParticle as a framework, your import statement will be as follows:
@import mParticle_Apple_SDK; // Apple recommended syntax, but requires "Enable Modules (C and Objective-C)" in pbxproj
#import <mParticle_Apple_SDK/mParticle.h> // Works when modules are not enabled
Otherwise, for CocoaPods without use_frameworks!
, you can use either of these statements:
#import <mParticle-Apple-SDK/mParticle.h>
#import "mParticle.h"
Next, you'll need to start the SDK:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
MParticleOptions *mParticleOptions = [MParticleOptions optionsWithKey:@"REPLACE ME"
secret:@"REPLACE ME"];
//Please see the Identity page for more information on building this object
MPIdentityApiRequest *request = [MPIdentityApiRequest requestWithEmptyUser];
request.email = @"email@example.com";
mParticleOptions.identifyRequest = request;
mParticleOptions.onIdentifyComplete = ^(MPIdentityApiResult * _Nullable apiResult, NSError * _Nullable error) {
NSLog(@"Identify complete. userId = %@ error = %@", apiResult.user.userId, error);
};
mParticleOptions.onAttributionComplete(MPAttributionResult * _Nullable attributionResult, NSError * _Nullable error) {
NSLog(@"Attribution Complete. attributionResults = %@", attributionResult.linkInfo)
}
[[MParticle sharedInstance] startWithOptions:mParticleOptions];
return YES;
}
Please see Identity for more information on supplying an MPIdentityApiRequest
object during SDK initialization.
Android
-
Grab your mParticle key and secret from your workspace's dashboard and construct an
MParticleOptions
object. -
Call
start
from theonCreate
method of your app'sApplication
class. It's crucial that the SDK be started here for proper session management. If you don't already have anApplication
class, create it and then specify its fully-qualified name in the<application>
tag of your app'sAndroidManifest.xml
.
package com.example.myapp;
import android.app.Application;
import com.mparticle.MParticle;
public class MyApplication extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
MParticleOptions options = MParticleOptions.builder(this)
.credentials("REPLACE ME WITH KEY","REPLACE ME WITH SECRET")
.setLogLevel(MParticle.LogLevel.VERBOSE)
.identify(identifyRequest)
.identifyTask(
new BaseIdentityTask()
.addFailureListener(this)
.addSuccessListener(this)
)
.attributionListener(this)
.build();
MParticle.start(options);
}
}
Warning: It's generally not a good idea to log events in your
Application.onCreate()
. Android may instantiate yourApplication
class for a lot of reasons, in the background, while the user isn't even using their device.
Usage
Import
Importing the module:
import MParticle from 'react-native-mparticle'
Events
Logging events:
MParticle.logEvent('Test event', MParticle.EventType.Other, { 'Test key': 'Test value' })
Logging commerce events:
const product = new MParticle.Product('Test product for cart', '1234', 19.99)
const transactionAttributes = new MParticle.TransactionAttributes('Test transaction id')
const event = MParticle.CommerceEvent.createProductActionEvent(MParticle.ProductActionType.AddToCart, [product], transactionAttributes)
MParticle.logCommerceEvent(event)
const promotion = new MParticle.Promotion('Test promotion id', 'Test promotion name', 'Test creative', 'Test position')
const event = MParticle.CommerceEvent.createPromotionEvent(MParticle.PromotionActionType.View, [promotion])
MParticle.logCommerceEvent(event)
const product = new MParticle.Product('Test product that was viewed', '5678', 29.99)
const impression = new MParticle.Impression('Test impression list name', [product])
const event = MParticle.CommerceEvent.createImpressionEvent([impression])
MParticle.logCommerceEvent(event)
Logging screen events:
MParticle.logScreenEvent('Test screen', { 'Test key': 'Test value' })
User
Setting user attributes and tags:
Use Identify or currentUser to retrieve the userID for these calls
MParticle.User.setUserAttribute('User ID', 'Test key', 'Test value')
MParticle.User.setUserAttribute('User ID', MParticle.UserAttributeType.FirstName, 'Test first name')
MParticle.User.setUserAttributeArray('User ID', 'Test key', ['Test value 1', 'Test value 2'])
MParticle.User.setUserTag('User ID', 'Test value')
MParticle.User.removeUserAttribute('User ID', 'Test key')
MParticle.Identity.getUserIdentities((userIdentities) => {
console.debug(userIdentities);
});
IdentityRequest
var request = new MParticle.IdentityRequest()
Set a user Alias to be ran anytime the user’s identity changes
request.onUserAlias = (previousUser, newUser) => {
console.debug(previousUser.userID);
console.debug(newUser.userID);
};
Setting user identities:
var request = new MParticle.IdentityRequest();
request.setUserIdentity('example@example.com', MParticle.UserIdentityType.Email);
Identity
MParticle.Identity.getCurrentUser((currentUser) => {
console.debug(currentUser.userID);
});
Using static methods to update and change identity
var request = new MParticle.IdentityRequest();
MParticle.Identity.identify(request, (error, userId) => {
if (error) {
console.debug(error); //error is an MParticleError
} else {
console.debug(userId);
}
});
var request = new MParticle.IdentityRequest();
request.email = 'test email';
MParticle.Identity.login(request, (error, userId) => {
if (error) {
console.debug(error); //error is an MParticleError
} else {
console.debug(userId);
}
});
var request = new MParticle.IdentityRequest();
MParticle.Identity.logout(request, (error, userId) => {
if (error) {
console.debug(error);
} else {
console.debug(userId);
}
});
var request = new MParticle.IdentityRequest();
request.email = 'test email 2';
MParticle.Identity.modify(request, (error, userId) => {
if (error) {
console.debug(error); //error is an MParticleError
} else {
console.debug(userId);
}
});
Attribution
var attributions = MParticle.getAttributions();
In order to listen for Attributions asynchronously, you need to set the proper field in MParticleOptions
as shown in the Android or the iOS SDK start examples.
Kits
Check if a kit is active
var isKitActive = MParticle.isKitActive(kitId);
Check and set the SDK's opt out status
var isOptedOut = MParticle.getOptOut();
MParticle.setOptOut(!isOptedOut);
Push Registration
The method MParticle.logPushRegistration()
accepts 2 parameters. For Android, provide both the pushToken and senderId. For iOS, provide the push token in the first parameter, and simply pass null
for the second parameter
Android
MParticle.logPushRegistration(pushToken, senderId);
iOS
MParticle.logPushRegistration(pushToken, null);
