@firebase/analytics-types

What is @firebase/analytics-types?

The @firebase/analytics-types package provides TypeScript type definitions for Firebase Analytics. This package is primarily used in TypeScript projects to ensure type safety and to facilitate autocompletion and documentation in code editors when working with Firebase Analytics.

What are @firebase/analytics-types's main functionalities?

Event Parameters and Options Types

Defines TypeScript types for event parameters and options when logging events in Firebase Analytics. This helps in ensuring that the parameters and options passed to the logEvent function adhere to the expected structure.

import { EventParams, AnalyticsCallOptions } from '@firebase/analytics-types';

function logEvent(analytics: FirebaseAnalytics, eventName: string, eventParams?: EventParams, options?: AnalyticsCallOptions) {
  analytics.logEvent(eventName, eventParams, options);
}

Analytics Interface

Provides type definitions for the FirebaseAnalytics interface, which includes methods for interacting with Firebase Analytics, such as setting the current screen, logging events, etc. This ensures that all method calls on the analytics object are type-checked.

import { FirebaseAnalytics } from '@firebase/analytics-types';

function setupAnalytics(analytics: FirebaseAnalytics) {
  analytics.setCurrentScreen('homepage');
}

@types/google.analytics

Provides TypeScript definitions for Google Analytics. Similar to @firebase/analytics-types, it helps in integrating Google Analytics with TypeScript projects by offering type safety and autocompletion. However, it is focused on Google's Universal Analytics, whereas @firebase/analytics-types is tailored specifically for Firebase Analytics.

@types/mixpanel-browser

Offers TypeScript definitions for Mixpanel's browser library. Like @firebase/analytics-types, this package is essential for TypeScript users who want to integrate Mixpanel analytics in their projects with type safety. It differs in that it is specific to Mixpanel, another analytics service, compared to Firebase's offering.
