meteor-mixpanel

Client and Server wrapper for MixPanel with optional user tracking

Quick Start

1. meteor add yogiben:mixpanel
2. Include your token in the public object in your settings.json.

{
  "public": {
    "mixpanel": {
      "token": "18c8346c615ee36b40d3d5c267285ad0"
    }
  }
}

Easy Tracking of users

MixPanel lets you track users. If you set identifyUsers to true, users will be identified with the following code (modified from Percolate Studio's package)

{
  "public": {
    "mixpanel": {
      "token": "18c8346c615ee36b40d3d5c267285ad0",
      "identifyUsers": true
    }
  }
}

// Client
Tracker.autorun(function() {
    var user = Meteor.user();
    if (!user) return;
    mixpanel.identify(user._id);
    mixpanel.people.set({
        "Name": user.profile.firstName + ' ' + user.profile.lastName,
        // special mixpanel property names
        "$first_name": user.profile.firstName,
        "$last_name": user.profile.lastName,
        "$email": user.emails[0].address,
        "$created": user.createdAt.toISOString()
    });
});

This is a 'one size fits all' solution. You pay want to modify this code and include it in your Meteor.startup functions instead of setting the identifyUsers property to true.
