FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

// tracking an event
Analytics::trackEvent('category', 'action');
// tracking a custom line
Analytics::trackCustom("ga('send', ......"); // this line will be added within the tracking scriptIn your view or layout template (e.g. a blade template) use the following statement:
{{ Analytics::render() }}For Google Analytics you should place the statement right behind the body tag
<body>{{ Analytics::render() }}How to use
The GoogleAnalytics Provider automatically controls the local environment behaviour for testing purposes.
See https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/advanced#localhost for details.
There is a builtin provider called NoAnalytics. This is for testing environments and tracks nothing. So you do
not have to rewrite your code, simple select this provider in analytics configuration for your special environment
configurations.
Track a measurement without having javascript
-
Log in to Google Analytics and create custom definition. There you create a custom metrics. For example: Email opens, Integer type, min: 0 and max: 1 This will be available as
metric1. -
Within your mail template (or page template) you have to create a tracking image
<img src="{{ Analytics::trackMeasurementUrl('metric1', '1', new Event, new Campaign, md5($user)) }}" width="1" height="1" style="background-color: transparent; border: 0 none;" /> - That's it
