Installation

Require gordalina/mixpanel-bundle using composer

$ php composer.phar require gordalina/mixpanel-bundle:~5.0

Or require gordalina/mixpanel-bundle to your composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        "gordalina/mixpanel-bundle": "~5.0"
    }
}

// config/bundles.php
    return [
        // ...
        Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\GordalinaMixpanelBundle::class => ['all' => true],
    ];
}

Enable the bundle's configuration in app/config/config.yml:

# app/config/config.yml

gordalina_mixpanel:
    projects:
        default:
            token: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Usage

This bundle registers a gordalina_mixpanel.default, mixpanel.default and mixpanel service which is an instance of Mixpanel (from the official library). You'll be able to do whatever you want with it.

NOTE: This bundle sends your client's ip address automatically. If you have a reverse proxy in you servers you should set it in your front controller public/index.php:

// public/index.php
Request::setTrustedProxies(
    // the IP address (or range) of your proxy
    ['192.0.0.1', '10.0.0.0/8'],
    Request::HEADER_X_FORWARDED_ALL
);

You can find more documentation on Symfony website: How to Configure Symfony to Work behind a Load Balancer or a Reverse Proxy

Killer Feature

Track an event with a single annotation

<?php
// CheckoutController.php

use Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\Annotation as Mixpanel;

class CheckoutController
{
    /**
     * @Mixpanel\Track("View Checkout")
     */
    public function view(Request $request)
    {
        // ...
    }

Sending people information to Mixpanel

Mixpanel allows you to track your user's behaviours, but also some user information. When using annotations which require the distinct_id, this will be set automatically. This is done automatically provided you have configured it properly. You are able to override this value if you wish.

# config/packages/gordalina_mixpanel.yaml

gordalina_mixpanel:
    projects:
        default:
            token: xxxxxxxxxx
    users:
        Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\UserInterface:
            id: username
            $email: email

        # All possible properties
        YourAppBundle\Entity\User:
            id: id
            $first_name: first_name
            $last_name: last_name
            $email: email
            $phone: phone
            extra_data:
                - { key: whatever, value: test }

This bundle uses property access to get the values out of the user object, so event if you dont have a first_name property, but have a getFirstName method it will work.

NOTE: extra_data corresponding non-default properties in Mixpanel user profile

<?php
// UserController.php

use Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\Annotation as Mixpanel;

class UserController
{
    /**
     * @Mixpanel\UpdateUser()
     */
    public function userUpdated(User $user, Request $request)
    {
        // ...
    }

In the following example, we call UpdateUser, which sends all information registered in the configuration above, but we override the id property with an expression that evaluates the user id. The @Expression annotation uses ExpressionLanguage for evaluation.

<?php
// OrderController.php

use Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\Annotation as Mixpanel;

class OrderController
{
    /**
     * @Mixpanel\Track("Order Completed", props={
     *      "user_id": @Mixpanel\Expression("user.getId()")
     * })
     * @Mixpanel\TrackCharge(
     *      id=324"),
     *      amount=@Mixpanel\Expression("order.getAmount()")
     * )
     */
    public function orderCompleted(Order $order, Request $request)
    {
        // ...
    }

Annotations

Mixpanel Actions

Events

@Mixpanel\Register(prop="visits", value=3)
@Mixpanel\Track(event="name", props={ "firstTime": true })
@Mixpanel\Unregister(prop="$email")

Engagement

@Mixpanel\Append(id=324, prop="fruits", value="apples" [, ignoreTime=false])
@Mixpanel\ClearCharges(id=324 [, ignoreTime=false])
@Mixpanel\DeleteUser(id=324 [, ignoreTime=false])
@Mixpanel\Increment(id=324, prop="visits", value=3 [, ignoreTime=false])
@Mixpanel\Remove(id=324, prop="$email")
@Mixpanel\Set(id=324, props={ "firstTime": true } [, ignoreTime=false])
@Mixpanel\SetOnce(id=324, props={ "firstTime": true } [, ignoreTime=false])
@Mixpanel\TrackCharge(id=697, amount="20.0" [, ignoreTime=false])

Custom Annotations

@Mixpanel\Id()
@Mixpanel\Expression(expression="<expression>")
@Mixpanel\UpdateUser()

Note: The first argument is not required to specify the name explicitly, e.g: @Mixpanel\Expression("<expression>") or @Mixpanel\Set("<property>", value="<value>").

Note: All id properties can be omitted, as they will be set with the id of the current user in security.context

Send an event based on a condition

In all annotations, you can add conditions with Expression Language

/**
* @Mixpanel\Track("Your event", condition="request.getMethod() in ['GET']")
*/
public function yourAction()
{
  // ...
}

Note: By default condition is true and is not required.

MixpanelEvent

You can also send an event through symfony events when the annotations are not sufficient like this:

#In controller
namespace myNamespace;

use Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\Annotation as Annotation;
use Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\Mixpanel\Event\MixpanelEvent;
use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\EventDispatcherInterface;

// ...

public function edit(User $user, EventDispatcherInterface $eventDispatcher, Request $request)
{
    // Your code
    $annotation = new Annotation\Track();
    $annotation->event = 'My event';
    $annotation->props = [
        'prop 1' => 'data 1',
        'prop 2' => 'data 2',
    ];

    $eventDispatcher->dispatch(new MixpanelEvent($annotation, $request));
    // Rest of your code
}

Override Props in all Annotations

In all your annotations, you can have something like this:

    /**
     * @Mixpanel\Track("Your event", props={
     *      "user_id": @Mixpanel\Expression("user.getId()")
     * })
     */
    public function yourAction()
    {
        // ...
    }

It can be annoying to always have to put the same properties in your annotations. The functioning of the events allows us to avoid that.

namespace YourNamespace;

use Doctrine\Common\Annotations\Reader;
use Gordalina\MixpanelBundle\Annotation;
use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\ControllerEvent;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Security;

class MixpanelListener
{
    private $annotationReader;
    private $security;

    public function __construct(Reader $annotationReader, Security $security)
    {
        $this->annotationReader = $annotationReader;
        $this->security         = $security;
    }

    public function onKernelController(ControllerEvent $event)
    {
        if (!\is_array($controller = $event->getController())) {
            return;
        }

        $className = \get_class($controller[0]);
        $object    = new \ReflectionClass($className);
        $method    = $object->getMethod($controller[1]);

        $classAnnotations  = $this->annotationReader->getClassAnnotations($object);
        $methodAnnotations = $this->annotationReader->getMethodAnnotations($method);

        foreach ([$classAnnotations, $methodAnnotations] as $collection) {
            foreach ($collection as $annotation) {
                if ($annotation instanceof Annotation\Annotation && property_exists($annotation, 'props')) {
                    $annotation->props['user_id'] = $this->security->getUser()->getId();
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

And in your config:

    YourNamespace\MixpanelListener:
        tags:
            - { name: kernel.event_listener, event: kernel.controller, method: onKernelController, priority: -200 }

Symfony Profiler Integration

Mixpanel bundle additionally integrates with Symfony2 profiler. You can check number of events and engagements sent, total execution time and other information.
