@greenwood/plugin-google-analytics v0.29.3

@greenwood/plugin-google-analytics

Overview

A Greenwood plugin adding support for Google Analytics JavaScript tracker. It assumes you already have your own Tracking ID(s) and can either filter out tracking for everything but your production environment so that local testing doesn't interfere with production data, or use a conditional based analyticsId using an environment variable, ex.

const analyticsId = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'xxx' ? 'UA-123...' : 'UA-345...';

Usage
