Analytics

Suggest Edits

The OWAnalytics protocol in the OpenWeb iOS SDK allows you to track analytics events and set custom business intelligence data. 



public protocol OWAnalytics {
    var customBIData: OWCustomBIData { get set }
    func addBICallback(_ callback: @escaping OWBIAnalyticEventCallback)
}

With a callback, you can handle specific analytics events, allowing you to integrate with your BI or analytics systems.


var manager: OWManagerProtocol = OpenWeb.manager

// Analytics

var analytics: OWAnalytics = OpenWeb.manager.analytics
// Set custom BI
let data: OWCustomBIData = ...
analytics.customBIData = data

// Set callback for the events
let analyticClosure: OWBIAnalyticEventCallback = { event, additionalInfo, postId in
    switch element {
      case .sortTypeChanged(let type):
        // Send your own BI/analytics here
      case .default:
        break
    }
}
analytics.addBICallback(analyticBIClosure) // Allow multiple callbacks
