Ruby access to the Mixpanel web analytics tool.
gem install mixpanel_client
or if you use a Gemfile
gem 'mixpanel_client'
require 'rubygems'
require 'mixpanel_client'
client = Mixpanel::Client.new(
api_secret: 'changeme'
timeout: 240, # Default is 60 seconds, increase to reduce timeout errors.
# Optional URI overrides (e.g. https://developer.mixpanel.com/reference/overview)
base_uri: 'api-eu.mixpanel.com',
data_uri: 'example-data.com',
import_uri: 'example-import.com'
)
data = client.request(
'events/properties',
event: 'Product Clicked',
name: 'product-clicked',
values: '["value1", "value2"]',
type: 'unique',
unit: 'day',
limit: 5,
from_date: '2013-12-1', #<- Date range
to_date: '2014-3-1' #<-
)
The API also supports passing a time interval rather than an explicit date range.
data = client.request(
'events/properties',
event: 'Product Clicked',
name: 'product-clicked',
values: '["value1", "value2"]',
type: 'unique',
unit: 'day',
limit: 5,
interval: 7 #<- Interval
)
Use the Import API to specify a time in the past. You'll need to include your API token in the data (docs).
To import, encode the data as JSON and use Base64. Encode the data like this:
data_to_import = {
'event' => 'firstLogin',
'properties' => {
'distinct_id' => guid,
'time' => time_as_integer_seconds_since_epoch,
'token' => api_token
}
}
encoded_data = Base64.encode64(data_to_import.to_json)
Then make a request to the API with the given API key, passing in the encoded data:
data = client.request('import', {:data => encoded_data, :api_key => api_key})
You can only import one event at a time.
The option to make parallel requests has been removed (in v5) so that there are no runtime dependencies.
