Laravel Stats Tracker

Latest Stable Version License Downloads

Tracker gathers a lot of information from your requests to identify and store:

Index

Why?

Storing user tracking information, on indexed and normalized database tables, wastes less disk space and ease the extract of valuable information about your application and business.

Usage

As soon as you install and enable it, Tracker will start storing all information you tell it to, then you can in your application use the Tracker Facade to access everything. Here are some of the methods and relationships available:

Current Session/Visitor

$visitor = Tracker::currentSession();

Most of those methods return an Eloquent model or collection, so you can use not only its attributes, but also relational data:

var_dump( $visitor->client_ip );

var_dump( $visitor->device->is_mobile );

var_dump( $visitor->device->platform );

var_dump( $visitor->geoIp->city );

var_dump( $visitor->language->preference );

Sessions (visits)

$sessions = Tracker::sessions(60 * 24); // get sessions (visits) from the past day
foreach ($sessions as $session)
{
    var_dump( $session->user->email );

    var_dump( $session->device->kind . ' - ' . $session->device->platform );

    var_dump( $session->agent->browser . ' - ' . $session->agent->browser_version );

    var_dump( $session->geoIp->country_name );

    foreach ($session->session->log as $log)
    {
    	var_dump( $log->path );
    }
}

Online Users

Brings all online sessions (logged and unlogged users)

$users = Tracker::onlineUsers(); // defaults to 3 minutes

Users

$users = Tracker::users(60 * 24);

User Devices

$users = Tracker::userDevices(60 * 24, $user->id);

Events

$events = Tracker::events(60 * 24);

Errors

$errors = Tracker::errors(60 * 24);

PageViews summary

$pageViews = Tracker::pageViews(60 * 24 * 30);

PageViews By Country summary

$pageViews = Tracker::pageViewsByCountry(60 * 24);

Filter range

You can send timestamp ranges to those methods using the Minutes class:

$range = new Minutes();

$range->setStart(Carbon::now()->subDays(2));

$range->setEnd(Carbon::now()->subDays(1));

Tracker::userDevices($range);

Routes By Name

Having a route of

Route::get('user/{id}', ['as' => 'user.profile', 'use' => 'UsersController@profile']);

You can use this method to select all hits on that particular route and count them using Laravel:

return Tracker::logByRouteName('user.profile')
        ->where(function($query)
        {
            $query
                ->where('parameter', 'id')
                ->where('value', 1);
        })
        ->count();

And if you need count how many unique visitors accessed that route, you can do:

return Tracker::logByRouteName('tracker.stats.log')
        ->where(function($query)
        {
            $query
                ->where('parameter', 'uuid')
                ->where('value', '8b6faf82-00f1-4db9-88ad-32e58cfb4f9d');
        })
        ->select('tracker_log.session_id')
        ->groupBy('tracker_log.session_id')
        ->distinct()
        ->count('tracker_log.session_id');

Manually log things

If your application has special needs, you can manually log things like:

Events

Tracker::trackEvent(['event' => 'cart.add']);
Tracker::trackEvent(['event' => 'cart.add', 'object' => 'App\Cart\Events\Add']);

Routes

Tracker::trackVisit(
    [
        'name' => 'my.dynamic.route.name',
        'action' => 'MyDynamic@url'
    ],
    ['path' => 'my/dynamic/url']
);

Requirements

For Laravel 4+ please use version 2.0.10.

Installing

Require the tracker package by executing the following command in your command line:

composer require pragmarx/tracker

Add the service provider to your app/config/app.php:

 PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\ServiceProvider::class,

Add the alias to the facade on your app/config/app.php:

'Tracker' => 'PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Facade',

Publish tracker configuration:

Laravel 4

php artisan config:publish pragmarx/tracker

Laravel 5

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\ServiceProvider"

Enable the Middleware (Laravel 5)

Open the newly published config file found at app/config/tracker.php and enable use_middleware:

'use_middleware' => true,

Add the Middleware to Laravel Kernel (Laravel 5)

Open the file app/Http/Kernel.php and add the following to your web middlewares:

\PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Middlewares\Tracker::class,

Enable Tracker in your config.php (Laravel 4) or tracker.php (Laravel 5)

'enabled' => true,

Publish the migration

php artisan tracker:tables

This is only needed if you are on Laravel 4, because vendor:publish does it for you in Laravel 5.

Create a database connection for it on your config/database.php

'connections' => [
    'mysql' => [
        ...
    ],
    
    'tracker' => [
    	'driver'   => '...',
    	'host'     => '...',
    	'database' => ...,
        'strict' => false,    // to avoid problems on some MySQL installs
    	...
    ],
],

Migrate it

If you have set the default connection to tracker, you can

php artisan migrate

Otherwise you'll have to

php artisan migrate --database=tracker

If you are planning to store Geo IP information, also install the geoip package:

composer require "geoip/geoip":"~1.14"

or

composer require "geoip2/geoip2":"~2.0"

And make sure you don't have the PHP module installed. This is a Debian/Ubuntu example:

sudo apt-get purge php5-geoip

Everything Is Disabled By Default

Tracker has a lot of logging options, but you need to decide what you want to log. Starting by enabling this one:

'log_enabled' => true,

It is responsible for logging page hits and sessions, basically the client IP address.

Multiple authentication drivers

You just have to all your auth IOC bidings to the array:

'authentication_ioc_binding' => ['auth', 'admin'],

Stats Panel

To use the stats panel on your website you'll need to download the sb-admin 2 sources to your public folder:

git clone https://github.com/BlackrockDigital/startbootstrap-sb-admin-2.git public/templates/sb-admin-2
cd public/templates/sb-admin-2
git checkout tags/v3.3.7+1
git checkout -b v3.3.7+1

And enabled in your config file:

'stats_panel_enabled' => true,

Set the web middleware for stats routes (Laravel 5)

'stats_routes_middleware' => 'web',

Only admins can view the stats, so if you don't have an is_admin attribute on your user model, you'll have to add one:

public function getIsAdminAttribute()
{
    return true;
}

It can be 'admin', 'is_admin', 'root' or 'is_root'.

Troubleshooting

Is everything enabled?

Make sure Tracker is enabled in the config file. Usually this is the source of most problems.

Tail your laravel.log file

tail -f storage/logs/laravel.log

Usually non-trackable IP addresses and other messages will appear in the log:

[2018-03-19 21:28:08] local.WARNING: TRACKER (unable to track item): 127.0.0.1 is not trackable.

SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1067 Invalid default value for 'field name'

This is probably related to SQL modes on MySQL, specifically with NO_ZERO_IN_DATE and NO_ZERO_DATE modes:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36882149/error-1067-42000-invalid-default-value-for-created-at

Because Laravel's defaults to

set session sql_mode='ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION'

You may need to change your Tracker database connection configuration to

'connections' => [
    ...

    'tracker' => [
        ...

        'strict'    => false,
    ],
],

Not able to track users?

If you get an error like:

Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'tracker.users' doesn't exist

You probably need to change:

'user_model' => 'PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Models\User',

To create (or use a current) a User model:

'user_model' => 'App\TrackerUser',

And configure the Connection related to your users table:

protected $connection = 'mysql';

Not able to track API's?

In your kernel

protected $middlewareGroups = [
    'web' => [
        .......
        \PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Middlewares\Tracker::class,
    ],

    'api' => [
       .......
        \PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Middlewares\Tracker::class,
    ],
];
