#+TITLE: Python google analytics library
* Introduction
This library is a simple server side implementation of google analytics it is based on the documentation here.
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/devguide
It uses the requests library to send requests directly to google with out any javascript which may be blocked client side.
* Installation
#+BEGIN_SRC shell :results silent
pip install pygass
#+END_SRC
The code is also available at this location for bug fixes or to pull from master.
https://gitlab.com/python-open-source-library-collection/pygass
* Development
When testing its usefull to use the analytics hit builder to check the correct format.

* Examples
** Simple Page tracking event
The below example sends a page view event to google, you will need to provide an anonymous client id and the page url as a minimum.
#+NAME: Page tracking example
#+BEGIN_SRC python :results output code :exports code
import random
import pprint
import constants as st
import pygass as an
# set your analytics code
st.ANALYTICS_CODE = "UA-10000000-1"
# use the test api for json responses
st.ANALYTICS_URL = "https://www.google-analytics.com/debug/collect"
# show the response
pprint.pprint(
an.track_pageview(client_id=123, page="/test/client/pageview"), width=1
)
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS: Page tracking example
#+BEGIN_SRC python

The below example demonstrates how to track a transaction with analytics, you will need to send an anonymous client id with the requests.
