Analytics

This package is part of the SurfGear toolkit made by Surf.

Description

Interface for working with analytic services.
The library is supposed to unify work with various analytic services. The main actors are:

• AnalyticAction — any action that is valuable for analytics. Usually it is a "button pressed" or "screen opened" type of event but the main criterion is a possibility to be handled by AnalyticActionPerformer.
• AnalyticActionPerformer — a performer of specific actions used to incapsulate work with a certain analytics service. Typically implemented by transforming AnalyticAction into a required format as well as calling send() of a third-party library.
• AnalyticService — a unified entry point for several AnalyticActionPerformers.

Example

The easiest interaction with the library is as follows:

1. Determine the actions that ought to be recorded in the analytics service:

   class MyAnalyticAction implements AnalyticAction {
       final String key;
       final String value;
   
       MyAnalyticAction(this.key, this.value);
   }
   
   class ButtonPressedAction extends MyAnalyticAction {
       ButtonPressedAction() : super("button_pressed", null);
   }
   
   class ScreenOpenedAction extends MyAnalyticAction {
       ScreenOpenedAction({String param}) : super("screen_opened", param);
   }
   

2. Implement action performer:

   class MyAnalyticActionPerformer
       implements AnalyticActionPerformer<MyAnalyticAction> {
       final SomeAnalyticService _service;
   
       MyAnalyticActionPerformer(this._service);
   
       @override
       bool canHandle(AnalyticAction action) => action is MyAnalyticAction;
   
       @override
       void perform(MyAnalyticAction action) {
           _service.send(action.key, action.value);
       }
   }
   

3. Add performer to the service:

       final analyticService = DefaultAnalyticService();
       analyticService.addActionPerformer(
           MyAnalyticActionPerformer(SomeAnalyticService()),
       );
   

Usage:

    analyticService.performAction(ButtonPressedAction());
