Integrating Google Analytics
Prerequisites:
A Google Analytics account is required.
A KMM project set up.
Android Setup:
Obtain Google Services JSON: Acquire the
google-services.json
file provided by Google.Place the File: Place the
google-services.json
file in the root directory of your Android application module.
KMM Integration:
Dependency: Include the appropriate Google Analytics library in your shared module. The specific library might vary depending on your development environment (e.g.,
firebase-analytics-ktx
for Firebase).
Logging Events:
The provided anal()
function serves as a convenient way to log events in your KMM code:
Kotlin
Explanation:
This function accepts two arguments:
data
: An object containing the event-specific data to be logged (e.g., user ID, product details).event
: An optionalTag.Event
enum value (defaults toTag.Event.Select
) that categorizes the event.
It utilizes the
Analytics.log
function (implementation details depend on the chosen library) to send the event data to Google Analytics.
Additional Notes:
Consider creating custom event types in your
Tag.Event
enum for more specific tracking.The actual implementation of the
Analytics
object and itslog
function will depend on the specific Google Analytics library you choose for your KMM project.Refer to the chosen library's documentation for detailed information on available functionalities and configuration options.
Benefits of KMM Integration:
Unified Tracking: Track user behavior consistently across Android and potentially other platforms you might target with your KMM application.
Simplified Code: The
anal()
function provides a concise way to log events, reducing boilerplate code.
By integrating Google Analytics with your KMM application, you gain valuable insights into user engagement and app usage, enabling data-driven decisions to improve your app's effectiveness.
