Introduction

https://www.npmjs.com/package/mobify-analytics-sdk

Analytics SDK standardize how we capture analytics across different Mobify platform. It contains a few parts:

• Config file
• Debug experience
• Test framework
• Deployment tool

To get started

npm i
npm run build
npm run test

This will run the necessary tests.

To hot reload test in browser:

npm run build:watch &
npm run start:cold &
open http://localhost:8443/webpack-dev-server/test/index.html

Building the analytics SDK javascript

The analytics SDK will read a specific config file that can be bundled.

To build the SDK, run:

npm run build

Which will generate the analytics-sdk/index.js. The SDK can then be loaded on any webpage by doing:

<script src='analytics-sdk/index.js'></script>

Note: this is for temporary demo but eventually this will be loaded by a.js directly

Side loading script via bookmarklet

One can side-load the script in any page by running:

npm start

And you can load the script from https://localhost:8443/public/bundle/index.js which will have the hot-reload available.

Note that https is required for side-loading on https site.

And then use the following

AnalyticSDK

Just drag and drop this into the toolbar.

Publishing

https://www.npmjs.com/package/mobify-analytics-sdk

This is published on merge to master branch.

To publish manually:

npm run build

# Remember to bump version in package.json

npm publish

Note that assets bundling should be the responsibility of the library requirer.

Analytics SDK config file

The config file is responsible for specifying what to capture on the client.

• The config file schema is defined in sdkschema.js
• Example config file is in config/config.js.

To validate a config file, run:

npm run build
bin/validate-sdk.js config/config.js

These files also are responsible for generated the documents for config.

Generated Documentation

npm run docs:build

There are 2 main parts of documentation:

• Main docs generated from src/*
• Configuration specific docs generated from config/config.js
  • The config file serves as both validation test and documentation to ensure config is up to date.

The source of these docs are documented in package.json docs:build script.

The docs is generated into both Markdown (via jsdoc2md) and HTML format (via jsdoc - not checked into repo)
