\title Usage

\section1 Introduction

The analytics plugin works with either a recent Matamo Server or Google Analytics. For both setup it is assumed the credentials and logins are available.

To avoid having configuration information inside the UI code the plugin looks up a configuration file. The configuration is stored by default into a \c {:/analytics.json} document. This location can be overridden using the \c {ANALYTICS_CONFIG} environment variable.

The config file must have at least a \c {tracker} key and the corresponding builder configuration.

For example for a google tracker you specify

\code
{
    "tracker": "google"
    "tid": "UA-555555555-5",
    "cid": "555",
    "deviceResolution": "1280x800",
    "domain": "http://example.org",
}
\endcode

\list
\li \c tracker - the tracker backend to be used
\li \c tid - the tracker id
\li \c cid - the client id
\li \c deviceResolution - a custom variable to be send with the tracker
\li \c domain - the URI the application will identify
\endlist


See \l {Concepts} for more information.
