FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Fathom Analytics for Craft CMS

Statistics and chart widgets for Fathom Lite.

A word about privacy & Fathom

If you care about privacy and website-analytics, I encourage you to read some of my toughts about it, explaining why I made the move from Google Analytics to Fathom.

TL;DR

Fathom is a Google Analytics alternative. They offer Fathom Lite, which is free and you can self-host. Thereby no data is being shared with third party services.

Although Fathom Lite does not collect any personally identifiable information (and is GDPR compliant), it currently still uses a cookie (and is not PECR compliant without a cookie notice). If you need a cookie-free solution, I suggest switching to Fathom Pro. Fathom Lite might become cookie-free in a future update though 🤞.

Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 3.0.0-beta.23 or later and Fathom Lite

Installation

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

  1. Open your terminal and go to your Craft project:

    cd /path/to/project

  2. Then tell Composer to load the plugin:

    composer require stenvdb/craft-fathom-analytics
  3. In the Control Panel, go to Settings → Plugins and click the “Install” button for Fathom Analytics.

Fathom Analytics Overview

This plugin only works with Fathom Lite, the self-hosted open source version. Reasons being Fathom does not have an official documented API. Once Fathom releases a documented API (which might be in the works), I'll consider providing support for Fathom Pro. In the meantime, this plugin uses Fathom's already great internal API.

Configuring Fathom Analytics

This plugin obviously requires Fathom running on one of your servers. Once it is up and running (which is super easy), configure Fathom Analytic's settings in a config/fathom-anaytics.php file (multi-site config is supported). See an example below:

Tracking Code Snippet

When enabling injectTracking setting, the tracking snippet (editable in the plugin settings) will automatically be injected into the head section of your site. This is disabled by default.

Alternatively you can use the following code snippet to force the code injection in your template:
