Configuration

This step is the most important. Let's make it simple:

  • Open a terminal and run: php artisan config:publish "jmpatricio/easy-google-analytics".
  • Now you have {$projectRoot}/app/config/packages/jmpatricio/easy-google-analytics/config.php file with:
return [
    'client_id'            => 'xxx.apps.googleusercontent.com',
    'service_account_name' => 'xxx@developer.gserviceaccount.com',
    'keyfile'              => storage_path('xxx.p12'),
    'analytics_id'         => 'ga:xxx',
];
  • Now you have to go to your googe developer account and configure a new project. (If you already have a project, ignore this step) Create a new project

  • You need to enable the Analytics API to your project. Inside project, go to APIs & auth and then inside APIs. Enable the analytics

  • Inside the project, on developers console, go to Credentials inside APIs & auth, create a new Service Account

  • Choose a p12 key

  • Save your p12 key inside {$projectRoot}/app/storage.

  • Edit the config file and define the keyfile entry: 'keyfile' => storage_path('Easy-Google-Analytics-da31194a03c6.p12'),

  • Now you have the information about the credentials Click on the email, and the following screen shows up:

  • Add the client id and the email address to the config:

return [
	'client_id'            => '459875649264-vs034lhn7ocddcch0nq1vdurst1mr8bu.apps.googleusercontent.com',
	'service_account_name' => '459875649264-vs034lhn7ocddcch0nq1vdurst1mr8bu@developer.gserviceaccount.com',
	'keyfile'              => storage_path('Easy-Google-Analytics-da31194a03c6.p12'),
	'analytics_id'         => 'ga:xxx',
];
  • Now the only thing missing is the analytics id
  • Go to your analytics dashboard, and inside the admin area select the view settings:
  • Copy the view id and add to the config:

The config will be the following:

return [
    'client_id'            => '459875649264-vs034lhn7ocddcch0nq1vdurst1mr8bu.apps.googleusercontent.com',
    'service_account_name' => '459875649264-vs034lhn7ocddcch0nq1vdurst1mr8bu@developer.gserviceaccount.com',
    'keyfile'              => storage_path('Easy-Google-Analytics-da31194a03c6.p12'),
    'analytics_id'         => 'ga:106917230',
];
  • Now we have to add permissions to the service account inside analytics console:

  • Go to the analytics admin console, and add the user with the respective permissions:

  • The configuration is complete!

Basic usage

$connector = new Jmpatricio\EasyGoogleAnalytics\Connector();

// Total visits for today
$totalVisitors = $connector->getTotalVisits();

// Total visits with from-to dates
$totalVisitors = $connector->getTotalVisits(new Carbon\Carbon('2015-08-01'), new Carbon\Carbon('2015-08-05'));

// Active users
$activeUsers = $connector->getActiveUsers();

// Generic API Access

// GA API
$fromDate = new Carbon\Carbon('2015-08-01');
$toDate = new Carbon\Carbon('2015-08-05');
$serviceResponse = $connector->getGA($fromDate,$toDate,'ga:visitors')

// Realtime API
$serviceResponse = $connector->getRT('rt:activeUsers',['dimensions'=>'rt:country']);
