Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

react-google-tag-manager

This repository contains a react based implementation for Google's Tag Manager snippet.

Motivation & Expectation

We like to use Google's Tag Manager in our React Stack. We wrap it into a component because it makes it testable. And based on our agreement every component needs to be tested.

Other requirements for the GTM implementation are:

  1. provide a GTM-ID
  2. provide additional events on script initialization (optional)
  3. provide a name for the dataLayer (optional)
  4. can be used for server-side-rendering and client-side-rendering
  5. contains tests
  6. installable via npm

How to use

To use it in your project run npm i react-google-tag-manager. It could be used like the following example:

import React from 'react';
import gtmParts from 'react-google-tag-manager';

class GoogleTagManager extends React.Component {
    componentDidMount() {
        const dataLayerName = this.props.dataLayerName || 'dataLayer';
        const scriptId = this.props.scriptId || 'react-google-tag-manager-gtm';

        if (!window[dataLayerName]) {
            const gtmScriptNode = document.getElementById(scriptId);

            eval(gtmScriptNode.textContent);
        }
    }

    render() {
        const gtm = gtmParts({
            id: this.props.gtmId,
            dataLayerName: this.props.dataLayerName || 'dataLayer',
            additionalEvents: this.props.additionalEvents || {},
            previewVariables: this.props.previewVariables || false,
        });

        return (
            <div>
                <div>{gtm.noScriptAsReact()}</div>
                <div id={this.props.scriptId || 'react-google-tag-manager-gtm'}>
                    {gtm.scriptAsReact()}
                </div>
            </div>
        );
    }
}

GoogleTagManager.propTypes = {
    gtmId: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
    dataLayerName: React.PropTypes.string,
    additionalEvents: React.PropTypes.object,
    previewVariables: React.PropTypes.string,
    scriptId: React.PropTypes.string
};

export default GoogleTagManager;

You can render this later simply by

// inside the render method where you want to include the tag manager
<GoogleTagManager gtmId='GTM-12345' />

// or with all optional parameters
const event = { platform: 'react-stack' }

<GoogleTagManager gtmId='GTM-12345' scriptId='gtm-script-container' dataLayerName='dl-backup' additionalEvents={event} previewVariables='' />

In this example the google tag manager id, the dataLayer name, additional events and the script id where gtm script should be mounted are configurable through props:

| prop | required | default value | | ------------------- | ------------- |-------------------------------- | | gtmId | yes | | | dataLayerName | no | dataLayer | | additionalEvents | no | {} | | scriptId | no | react-google-tag-manager-gtm | | previewVariables | no | false |

Notes:

  • The componentDidMount part is required as the script contents itself would not be executed otherwise on the client side
  • As eval can be used to do harm, make sure that you are understanding what you are doing here and read through the script that is evaluated
  • Additionally this module exports noScriptAsHTML() and scriptAsHTML() which return a simple HTML string
  • gtmParts takes the following arguments:

| argument keys | required | default value | | ------------------- | ------------- | ------------- | | id | yes | | | dataLayerName | no | dataLayer | | additionalEvents | no | {} |
