LogoGitHub - Evntaly/evntaly-ruby: Evntaly official library for your ruby projectsGitHub

Installation

To install the SDK using bundler:

 gem 'evntaly', '~> 1.0'

and then run:

bundle install

or install directly using:

gem install evntaly

Initialization

Initialize the SDK with your developer secret and project token:

sdk = Evntaly::SDK.new(
    developer_secret: 'YOUR_DEVELOPER_SECRET',
    project_token: 'YOUR_PROJECT_TOKEN'
)

Tracking Events

To track an event, use the track method with an associative array containing the event details.

 event = Evntaly::Event.new(
  title: 'User Signed Up',
  description: 'A new user signed up to the platform.',
  message: 'Welcome email sent to the user.',
  data: { plan: 'pro', referrer: 'campaign_xyz' },
  tags: ['signup', 'email', 'marketing'],
  notify: true,
  icon: "💰",
  apply_rule_only: false,
  user: { id: '12345' },
  type: 'user_event',
  session_id: 'session_abc',
  feature: 'onboarding',
  topic: 'user_activity'
)

begin
  sdk.track(event)
rescue => e
  # error handling logic
end

Identifying Users

To identify user details, use the identifyUser method. This helps link events to specific users and enriches your analytics.

user = Evntaly::User.new(
  id: 'u123',
  email: 'user@example.com',
  full_name: 'John Doe',
  organization: 'Example Org',
  data: { role: 'admin' }
)

begin
  sdk.identify_user(user)
rescue => e
  # error handling logic
end

Enabling and Disabling Tracking

You can globally enable or disable event tracking for the current SDK instance. This might be useful for development/testing or respecting user consent.

Evntaly::SDK.disable_tracking  # Disables tracking
Evntaly::SDK.enable_tracking   # Enables tracking

Best Practices

  • Initialize early: Always initialize the SDK as early as possible.

  • Avoid sensitive data: Do not pass sensitive personal data directly to the SDK.

  • Monitor API limits: Regularly check API limits to avoid missing critical events.

Troubleshooting

  • Events not appearing: Check if the SDK is initialized correctly and the API tokens are valid.

  • Network errors: Ensure your network allows requests to https://evntaly.com.
