Installation

npm install @jackdbd/eleventy-plugin-plausible

Note: this library was tested on Node.js >=18. It might work on other Node.js versions though.

About

This plugin retrieves analytics data from the Plausible API, caches it, then makes it available using an Eleventy global data key of your choice.

Usage

Configure this plugin with your Plausible API key and site ID, and then the options for analytics and caching.

import { plausiblePlugin } from '@jackdbd/eleventy-plugin-plausible'

export default function (eleventyConfig) {
  // some eleventy configuration...

  eleventyConfig.addPlugin(plausiblePlugin, {
    apiKey: 'YOUR-API-KEY',
    siteId: 'YOUR-SITE-ID',
    cacheDuration: '30m',
    cacheVerbose: true,
    statsBreakdownPeriod: '7d'
  })

  // some more eleventy configuration...
}

Then use it in your Eleventy config...

eleventyConfig.on('eleventy.after', async () => {
  const breakdown = await eleventyConfig.globalData.plausibleStatsBreakdown()
  console.log('stats breakdown from Plausible', breakdown)
})

...or in your templates (here is an example with nunjucks):

<p>Breakdown from Plausible analytics.</p>
<ul>
{%- for item in plausibleStatsBreakdown -%}
  <li>
    <a href="{{ item.page | url }}">
      {% if item.page %}
        <span>{{ item.page | slugify }}</span> <span>({{ item.visitors }} visitors)</span>
      {% else %}
        Untitled page
      {% endif %}
    </a>
  </li>
{%- endfor -%}
</ul>

Troubleshooting
