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.

Installation

This plugin is available for installation via Composer.

After installing the plugin you will need to run the migrations and (if you are using a public folder) republish your public directory.

Configuration

Configure the API

To get started using Google Analytics API, you need to first create or select a project in the Google Developers Console and enable the API. Using this link guides you through the process and activates the Google Analytics API automatically.

Alternatively, you can activate the Google Analytics API yourself in the Developers Console by doing the following:

  1. Open the Credentials page.

  2. Select the Overview menu item and enable the Analytics API.

In either case, you should end up on the Credentials page and can create your project's credentials from here.

Create a client ID

  1. Open the Service accounts section of the Developers Console's Permissions page.

  2. Click Create service account.

  3. In the Create service account window, type a name for the service account, eg: Winter CMS Analytics.

  4. Place a tick in the box Furnish a new private key and select JSON for the Key type.

  5. Then, click Create.

  6. A .json file will be generated, this is the private key for your account. Accept the download and save it to your computer.

  7. Click Close.

  8. You should see an email ending with iam.gserviceaccount.com, if not select the Permissions tab. Copy this address to your clipboard.

Configure Google Analytics

  1. In a new tab, navigate to the main Google Analytics site and select the property you want to track.

  2. Click the Admin main menu tab at the top. Select the Property > User Management menu item.

  3. Paste the email address from the clipboard in to the field Add permissions for and make sure the permission is set to Read & Analyse. Click Add.

  4. Click the Admin main menu tab again and select View > View Settings from the menu. Copy to your clipboard the Profile ID (should be a number).

Configure Winter CMS back-end area

  1. Open your Winter CMS back-end administration area and open Settings > Google Analytics.

  2. Paste the Property ID from the clipboard in to the field Analytics Property ID number.

  3. Upload the previously downloaded .json private key file to the Private key field.

  4. Specify the Tracking ID (eg G-1234ABCDEF) and Domain name values if you are going to use the plugin's built-in tracking component. To find this code, select Admin > Property > Property Settings from the Google Analytics menu.

  5. If Tracking is not working initially, enter the value auto for the Domain name field. This is a fix for newborn Google Analytics accounts.

Adding the tracking code

Using the tracking code provided by the plugin is optional - the reporting part does not depend on whether you track your traffic with the built-in tracker or with a custom code generated by Google Analytics tools.

To add the plugin's tracking code to your website just drop the Google Analytics Tracker component to your CMS layout and add this code to the layout code after the page tag:

Troubleshooting

Fix for Windows / XAMPP

cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

  2. Open your php.ini file insert or edit the following line:

  3. Restart Apache

Popup message simply saying "error" when trying to add the JSON key file.

Some ad-blockers (such as Chrome's uBlock Origin extension or Firefox's own built-in algorithms) may prevent the uploading of the JSON file key. Disabling these, or whitelisting the Winter CMS website, may resolve this issue for you.
