metricstory v0.0.4

MetricStory

This provides a straightforward way to integrate MetricStory analytics into your web application.

Usage

Before using the SDK, ensure you have generated an API token from MetricStory.ai. This token is required for authorizing requests to MetricStory's API.

For added security, you can add a domain in MetricStory.ai as well

Initializing MetricStory

Install the module

npm install metricstory

Import the MetricStory provider and initialize it with your API token.

import { MetricStoryProvider } from 'metricstory';

export default function App() {
  return (
      <MetricStoryProvider apiKey='key-XXXXX'>
          <BrowserRouter />
      </MetricStoryProvider>
  )
} 

Identifying Users

To associate events and page views with a user, call the identify method. This makes it easier to track user actions across your application.

metricStory.identify({ userId: "user's unique ID", first_name: "First Name", last_name: "Last Name" });

It's a good practice to call this method right after a user logs in or when the user information is updated.

Tracking Events

You can track custom events using the track method. This is useful for understanding the actions users are taking in your web application.

metricStory.track({ event: "USER_SIGNED_UP", properties: { plan: "Pro" } });

Automatic Page Load Tracking

The SDK automatically tracks page loads when the MetricStory class is first initialized. However, if you need to track page views manually (e.g., in single-page applications), you can use the page method as shown below.

metricStory.page({ page: '/home', properties: { plan: 'Free' } });
