Analytics for Botpress provides an interface to view graphs and data of your chatbot typical usage. By using this module, you can have a look to your total users, retention, daily active users, busy hours and a lot more...

Installation

npm install --save @botpress/analytics

Usage

This module has some built-in analytics available from the box but also allows you to set up your own custom analytics.

For latter you need to:

1. Register graphs by calling bp.analytics.custom.addGraph
2. Calling bp.analytics.custom.increment(name, count=1) and bp.analytics.custom.set(name, count=1) to register events that get displayed in analytics

bp.analytics.custom.addGraph accepts an object with following keys:

• name (String)
• type (one of 'count', 'countUniq', 'percent', 'piechart', 'table')
• description (String)
• variables (String),
• fn: (Function that is used to calculate result)
• fnAvg: (Function) => that gets used for 'percent' type to calculate average value

Examples

If you need some statistics about the satisfaction of your users, you can create 3 graphs : 2 counts and 1 table.

Read events

To generate your graphs, create a new file inside src folder called analytics.js. Inside this file, call the addGraph() function :

module.exports = async bp => {
    bp.analytics.custom.addGraph({
        name: '😃 users',
        type: 'count',
        description: 'Happy users',
        variables: ['happy']
    })

    bp.analytics.custom.addGraph({
        name: '😕 users',
        type: 'count',
        description: 'Mad users',
        variables: ['mad']
    })

    bp.analytics.custom.addGraph({
        name: 'Unsatisfied reasons',
        type: 'table',
        description: 'Why your users are mad?',
        variables: ['reason']
    })
}

and then you can call the analytics.js file inside the index.js file :

const registerAnalytics = require('./analytics')

module.exports = async bp => {

    // ...
    // register functions
    // ...

    await registerAnalytics(bp)
}

Send events

To send events, create nodes that passes inside functions that calls the botpress customs analytics functions :

Examples of functions inside the actions.js file :

module.exports = {
    userIsHappy: async (state, { bp, user }, params) => {
        await bp.analytics.custom.increment(`happy~${user.id}`);
    },

    userIsMad: async (state, { bp, user }, params) => {
        await bp.analytics.custom.increment(`mad~${user.id}`);
    },

    satisfactionReason: async (state, event, { bp, user }) => {
        await bp.analytics.custom.set(`${event.text}~reason~${user.id}`);
    }
}
