Closed tiagojsag closed 6 years ago

tiagojsag commented 6 years ago

Reviewed the GA tracking implementation

Added new events for data portal
Moved tracking logic from reducers and into dedicated middleware (could be DRYer, but that's for another day)
Retested the previous events and fixed the broken ones
Added new event to track context changes in sankey

Full event reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11Pufihk7VuxvvHWs5CxKNIklazEcKsu7lRPL50InFg0/edit#gid=0

DRYed the middleware code. Maybe not fix for now but worth raising a flag: this generates a lot of noise GA events. For instance, a context switch will generate two other events that are not meaningful:

{hitType: "event", eventCategory: "Sankey", eventAction: "Select contextual layers", eventLabel: "brazil_biomes"}
{hitType: "event", eventCategory: "Sankey", eventAction: "Update node selection", eventLabel: ""}

yeah, there are also many actions generating calls to the "node selection" event. we'll have to take care of that at some point, but not the goal right now
