ddl-tools-plugin-event

Events plugin for ddl-tools, a digital data layer helper utility with data layer schema validation for highly-decoupled analytics reporting.

Installation

Via yarn:

yarn add ddl-tools-plugin-event

Via npm

npm install --save ddl-tools-plugin-event

Usage

To use this plugin, you will need to instantiate DDLTools like you would typically do. You will also need to import this plugin, and call the use method to load the plugin into the DDLTools instance.

For example:

import DDLTools from 'ddl-tools';
import DDLValidator from 'ddl-validator';
import eventlugin from 'ddl-tools-plugin-event';
import schema from './path/to/mySchema';

const ddlValidator = new DDLValidator(schema);
const ddlTools = new DDLTools(window.digitalData, ddlValidator);
ddlTools.use(eventPlugin);

Once loaded, additional methods and classes will be present on the DDLTools instance. For example:

const event = new ddlTools.Event();
event.setEventName(evtName);
ddlTools.addEvent(event);

See the Technical Documentation for more detailed information on what methods and classes are added by this plugin.
