Google Analytics Integration with Nova

Installation

You can install the package in to a Laravel app that uses Nova via composer:

composer require tightenco/nova-google-analytics

For now, follow the directions on Spatie's Laravel Google Analytics package for getting your credentials, then put them here:

yourapp/storage/app/analytics/service-account-credentials.json

Also add this to the .env for your Nova app:

ANALYTICS_VIEW_ID=

Usage

You must register the cards you want to display with Nova. This is typically done in the cards method of the Main dashboard.

// in app/Nova/Dashboards/Main.php

// ...

public function cards()
{
    return [
        // ...
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\PageViewsMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\VisitorsMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\MostVisitedPagesCard,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\ReferrersList,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\OneDayActiveUsersMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\SevenDayActiveUsersMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\FourteenDayActiveUsersMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\TwentyEightDayActiveUsersMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\SessionsMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\SessionDurationMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\SessionsByDeviceMetric,
        new \Tightenco\NovaGoogleAnalytics\SessionsByCountryMetric,
    ];
}

Testing

First, copy your .env.example file to a new file called .env.testing:

cp .env.example .env.testing

Make sure, in that file, to define the following variables to run all tests:

ANALYTICS_VIEW_ID
ANALYTICS_PROJECT_ID
ANALYTICS_PRIVATE_KEY_ID
ANALYTICS_PRIVATE_KEY
ANALYTICS_CLIENT_EMAIL_KEY
ANALYTICS_CLIENT_ID
ANALYTICS_CLIENT_CERT_URL

Add the .env.testing file in .gitignore so you can safely use the same analytics view ID to run the tests that you use for the card.
