React Tracking Facebook
Un-official module to easily add Facebook pageview tracking to react apps. It functions as a tiny wrapper for the native script tag and window api. After initialization the Facebook script is injected into the document.
Installation
With npm:
npm install react-tracking-facebook --save
Usage
Before tracking any page views or events the tracker needs to be imported and initialized with the custom tracking id:
import FacebookTracking from 'react-tracking-facebook';
FacebookTracking.initialize('TRACKING_ID');
After initializing page views can be tracked like this:
FacebookTracking.trackPageview();
There is the option to track standard events with event action and event args:
FacebookTracking.trackEvent(eventAction, eventArgs);
There is also the option to track custom events with event action and event args:
FacebookTracking.trackCustomEvent(eventAction, eventArgs);
There is also a method to expose the raw fbq tracking object api from the window:
FacebookTracking.getTracker();
How this works
This modules takes care of injecting the provider specific tracking script into the document and provides a tiny wrapper for the tracking api. It also exposes the tracker object api for direct access.
Documentation for the raw tracker api can be found here.
