pyramid_customerio 1.0.0

Opinionated Pyramid integration with Customer.io, a customer engagement platform.

Integrate your Pyramid app with Customer.io

Opinionated Customer.io integration

The reason this package exists is to provide sane defaults when integrating with Customer.io. Instead of chasing down event name typos and debugging why tracking does not work, you can focus on building meaningful customer relationships.

• You never have typo-duplicated events in Customer.io, because every event name comes from a dataclass, never from a string that can be miss-typed by mistake.
• Same for properties. Like events, properties are hardcoded as dataclasses.
• All "special" and "reserved" events and properties are already provided, no need to chase them down in various Customer.io docs.
• Your app never stops working if Customer.io is down, but you still get errors in your logs so you know what is going on.
• You never forget to call flush() on the events buffer, since pyramid_customerio hooks into the request life-cycle and calls flush() at the end of the request processing.
• You defer sending events until the entire request is processed successfully, i.e. never send events like "User added a thing" if adding the thing to DB failed at a later stage in the request life-cycle.

Getting started

Install the package:

pip install pyramid_customerio

Or if you're using Poetry:

poetry add pyramid_customerio

Include the package in your Pyramid app configuration:

config.include('pyramid_customerio')

Configure your Customer.io credentials:

customerio.tracking.site_id = <your-site-id>
customerio.tracking.api_key = <your-api-key>
customerio.tracking.region = us  # or 'eu'

Start tracking events and identifying users:

def my_view(request):
    # Track an event
    request.customerio.track(
        request.customerio.events.user_signed_up,
        {request.customerio.event_properties.path: request.path}
    )

    # Identify a user
    request.customerio.identify({
        request.customerio.profile_properties.email: '[e-mail]',
        request.customerio.profile_properties.name: 'John Doe'
    })
