jquery-analytics

Description

jQuery plug-in to provide custom analytics. For those of us who can not use Google Analytics at work or just want to dork with something else.

Easy to use

With just a few lines of code you can easily configure your own web page analytics. Just specify the URI you would like to communicate with and everything is a go.

$(function () {
	$(".trace").analytics({
		url: "http://localhost/trace"
	});
});

Custom tags supported out-of-the-box

Often you want to track more meaningful information along with what is provided. Simply apply any number of custom attributes prefixed with "data-analytics-" and we will take care of the rest!

<a id="myLink" href="#" data-analytics-outfit="pajamas" data-analytics-shoes="slippers">My link</a>

This will send the following information back:

{
	id: "myLink",
	outfit: "pajamas",
	shoes: "slippers"
}

Determining the flow

It is also possible to track the flow a user goes through while visiting your page if you have an uniquely identifier piece of information. This can be done during initialization as such:

$(function () {
    $(".trace").analytics({
        url: "http://localhost/trace",
        client: "unique identifier"
    });
});
