Ember CLI addon for Mixpanel

An Ember-CLI addon that eases integration between your application and Mixpanel. This is a close port of rahim's ember-segmentio.

Usage

Add ember-cli-mixpanel as a dependency to your package.json or just run ember install:addon ember-cli-mixpanel.

There are two manual steps

• Extend your Router with tracking_mixin.js.
• Add a {{content-for 'mixpanel'}} to your index.html to include the mixpanel script.

Configuration

There are some options available to configure the mixpanel addon. Only token is a mandatory option otherwise

mixpanel: {
  enabled: false,
  LOG_EVENT_TRACKING: false,
  token: 'b619c413e0d49a362236388a4f5ec679',
  disable_auto_tracking: true // default: false
}

Tracking Page Views

Once included your router will automatically send a page view event to Mixpanel everytime the URL changes. This behavior can be disabled with disable_auto_tracking: true.

Tracking Additional Events

You can track addinional events as well. Let's say we would like to track play events on our controller.

import Ember from 'ember'
import TrackingMixin from './mixin/tracking_mixin'

var VideoController = Ember.Controller.extend(
  TrackingMixin, {

  actions: {
    play: function() {
      // ...
      // this.trackEvent(event, properties, options, callback)
      this.trackEvent('Play video');
      // or
      this.trackEvent('Play video', {
        title: 'Never gonna give you up'
      }
    });
  }
});

The mixin can be applied to any Ember object.

identifyUser, aliasUser

TBD

Logging

For debugging purposes you can enable logging for all events. Events are still send to Mixpanel but you will get an additional output in your console.

Add LOG_EVENT_TRACKING = true|false to your config file
