Heap is a unique new service that automatically captures all user actions on your site including UI interaction.
This library helps developers integrate Heap analytics_ into their Django
projects.
Install using pip::
pip install django-heap
Add heap to installed apps::
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'heap',
)
There is no need to run manage.py syncdb since django-heap has no database
tables. Add the heap context processor::
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
...
'heap.context_processors.heap',
)
Finally, configure the app ID in settings.py::
HEAP_APP_ID = '12345...'
To enable Heap tracking, you must include the script tag snippet in your template like so::
<head>
....
{% include 'heap/script.html' %}
</head>
Now you are ready to start tracking.
By default, django-heap tracks your site's superusers as well. You can disable
this by setting the HEAP_TRACK_SUPERUSER flag to False. This prevents
the script tag template from rendering when user has is_superuser property
set to True.
django-heap can automatically call heap.identify with data from the
authenticated user. To do that, you need to set the HEAP_AUTO_ID_USER
setting to True (disabled by default). Only authenticated users will be
identify. The User object's get_full_name method will be used to derive the
name parameter for the identify call, and if User object has an
email field, the email parameter will also be passed. There is
currently no handling for the cases where get_full_name returns the user's
email address.
Note This implementation is currently experimental, so please do it
manually in the BODY tag as suggested by Heap documentation if you find it
doesn't work for you.
You can customize django-heap by simply overriding the default template. There is currently no direct support for custom tracking calls, but it is planned for the next release.
