Google analytics for any router

This doesn't have any depency on react-router. You can use it with any router you like. See the example for how to use it with react-router

How to use

  1. npm install ga-react-router
  2. In your webpack.config.js add new webpack.DefinePlugin({GA_TRACKING_CODE: JSON.stringify('XXXXXXXX')})
  3. Use analytics in your Router.run code.

Example

import ga from 'ga-react-router'
import createBrowserHistory from 'history/lib/createBrowserHistory'
const history = createBrowserHistory()

// Listen for changes to the current location. The
// listener is called once immediately.
const unlisten = history.listen(location => {
  ga('send', location);
});

React.render(<Router history={history}>{routes}</Router>, el)

// When you're finished, stop the listener.
unlisten()

Advanced setup

You can pass more information to ga.create() by adding a GA_CONFIG object to webpack.DefinePlugin like so:

new webpack.DefinePlugin({
  GA_TRACKING_CODE: JSON.stringify('XXXXXXXX'),
  GA_CONFIG: {
    'name': 'myTracker'
  }
})
