Flask Analytics is an extension for Flask which generates analytics snippets for inclusion in templates.
$ pip install Flask-Analyticsapp.py
from flask import Flask, render_template
from flask_analytics import Analytics
app = Flask(__name__)
Analytics(app)
app.config['ANALYTICS']['GAUGES']['SITE_ID'] = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXX'
@app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template('index.html')index.html
{{ analytics }}
result
$ curl http://localhost:5000/
<script type="text/javascript">
var _gauges = _gauges || [];
(function() {
var t = document.createElement('script');
t.type = 'text/javascript';
t.async = true;
t.id = 'gauges-tracker';
t.setAttribute('data-site-id', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXX');
t.src = '//secure.gaug.es/track.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);
})();
</script>Flask-Analytics uses keys defined in app.config['ANALYTICS'] to determine which for which services analytics snippets should be generated.
| Service | Keys Required |
|---|---|
| Google Analytics (ga.js) | ['GOOGLE_CLASSIC_ANALYTICS']['ACCOUNT'] |
| Universal Analytics (analytics.js) | ['GOOGLE_UNIVERSAL_ANALYTICS']['ACCOUNT'] |
| Piwik | ['PIWIK']['BASE_URL']['PIWIK']['SITE_ID'] |
| Gaug.es | ['GAUGES']['SITE_ID'] |
| Chartbeat | ['CHARTBEAT']['UID']['CHARTBEAT']['DOMAIN'] |
| GoSquared | ['GOSQUARED']['UID'] |
Individual services can be disabled by setting the ENABLED key for that service (e.g. ['ANALYTICS']['PIWIK']['ENABLED']). Analytics as a whole can be disabled by setting the ENABLED key at the top (e.g. ['ANALYTICS']['ENABLED']).
When a service, or analytics as a whole, is disabled, it returns an empty string, so it's safe to keep {{analytics}} in your template.
When the configuration changes, the source for the analytics code will automatically be rebuilt the next time it's called.
