Django-google-optimize
Django-google-optimize is a Django application designed to make running Google Optimize A/B tests easy.
Here is a tutorial on the Google Optimize basics and how to use this Django application.
Installation
Install django-google-optimize with pip:
pip install django-google-optimize
Add the application to installed Django applications:
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
"django_google_optimize",
...
]
Add the middleware:
MIDDLEWARE = [
...
"django_google_optimize.middleware.google_optimize",
...
]
Getting started
Head over to the Django admin and add a new Google Optimize experiment. Add an experiment variant with the index 1 and the alias "new_design". Set the experiment cookie's active variant index to 1. Now the active variant index for that experiment is 1 which is the experiment variant with the alias "new_design" that you created.
Now you can access the experiment in templates by the experiment alias and the variant alias:
{% if request.google_optimize.redesign == "new_design" %}
{% include "jobs/jobposting_list_new.html" %}
{% else %}
{% include "jobs/jobposting_list_old.html" %}
{% endif %}
Or use it inline:
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-dark
{% if request.google_optimize.redesign == "new_design" %} navbar-redesign{% endif %}">
Note: The experiment cookie only works in DEBUG mode and is used to avoid interacting with the session to add the _gaexp
cookie making it possible to test the experiment variants through the Django admin.
