Storing user tracking information, on indexed and normalized database tables, wastes less disk space and ease the extract of valuable information about your application and business.
As soon as you install and enable it, Tracker will start storing all information you tell it to, then you can in your application use the Tracker Facade to access everything. Here are some of the methods and relationships available:
$visitor = Tracker::currentSession();
Most of those methods return an Eloquent model or collection, so you can use not only its attributes, but also relational data:
var_dump( $visitor->client_ip );
var_dump( $visitor->device->is_mobile );
var_dump( $visitor->device->platform );
var_dump( $visitor->geoIp->city );
var_dump( $visitor->language->preference );
$sessions = Tracker::sessions(60 * 24); // get sessions (visits) from the past day
foreach ($sessions as $session)
{
var_dump( $session->user->email );
var_dump( $session->device->kind . ' - ' . $session->device->platform );
var_dump( $session->agent->browser . ' - ' . $session->agent->browser_version );
var_dump( $session->geoIp->country_name );
foreach ($session->session->log as $log)
{
var_dump( $log->path );
}
}
Brings all online sessions (logged and unlogged users)
$users = Tracker::onlineUsers(); // defaults to 3 minutes
$users = Tracker::users(60 * 24);
$users = Tracker::userDevices(60 * 24, $user->id);
$events = Tracker::events(60 * 24);
$errors = Tracker::errors(60 * 24);
$pageViews = Tracker::pageViews(60 * 24 * 30);
$pageViews = Tracker::pageViewsByCountry(60 * 24);
You can send timestamp ranges to those methods using the Minutes class:
$range = new Minutes();
$range->setStart(Carbon::now()->subDays(2));
$range->setEnd(Carbon::now()->subDays(1));
Tracker::userDevices($range);
Having a route of
Route::get('user/{id}', ['as' => 'user.profile', 'use' => 'UsersController@profile']);
You can use this method to select all hits on that particular route and count them using Laravel:
return Tracker::logByRouteName('user.profile')
->where(function($query)
{
$query
->where('parameter', 'id')
->where('value', 1);
})
->count();
And if you need count how many unique visitors accessed that route, you can do:
return Tracker::logByRouteName('tracker.stats.log')
->where(function($query)
{
$query
->where('parameter', 'uuid')
->where('value', '8b6faf82-00f1-4db9-88ad-32e58cfb4f9d');
})
->select('tracker_log.session_id')
->groupBy('tracker_log.session_id')
->distinct()
->count('tracker_log.session_id');
The views above are available in this package, but you need to install the sb-admin
panel on your public folder, please look at the instructions below.
All tables are prefixed by tracker_
, and here's an extract of some of them, showing columns and contents:

If your application has special needs, you can manually log things like:
Tracker::trackEvent(['event' => 'cart.add']);
Tracker::trackEvent(['event' => 'cart.add', 'object' => 'App\Cart\Events\Add']);
Tracker::trackVisit(
[
'name' => 'my.dynamic.route.name',
'action' => 'MyDynamic@url'
],
['path' => 'my/dynamic/url']
);
For Laravel 4+ please use version 2.0.10.
tracker
package by executing the following command in your command line:composer require pragmarx/tracker
PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\ServiceProvider::class,
'Tracker' => 'PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Facade',
Laravel 4
php artisan config:publish pragmarx/tracker
Laravel 5
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\ServiceProvider"
Open the newly published config file found at app/config/tracker.php
and enable use_middleware
:
'use_middleware' => true,
Open the file app/Http/Kernel.php
and add the following to your web middlewares:
\PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Middlewares\Tracker::class,
'enabled' => true,
php artisan tracker:tables
This is only needed if you are on Laravel 4, because vendor:publish
does it for you in Laravel 5.
config/database.php
'connections' => [
'mysql' => [
...
],
'tracker' => [
'driver' => '...',
'host' => '...',
'database' => ...,
'strict' => false, // to avoid problems on some MySQL installs
...
],
],
If you have set the default connection to tracker
, you can
php artisan migrate
Otherwise you'll have to
php artisan migrate --database=tracker
composer require "geoip/geoip":"~1.14"
or
composer require "geoip2/geoip2":"~2.0"
sudo apt-get purge php5-geoip
Tracker has a lot of logging options, but you need to decide what you want to log. Starting by enabling this one:
'log_enabled' => true,
It is responsible for logging page hits and sessions, basically the client IP address.
You just have to all your auth IOC bidings to the array:
'authentication_ioc_binding' => ['auth', 'admin'],
To use the stats panel on your website you'll need to download the sb-admin 2 sources to your public folder:
git clone https://github.com/BlackrockDigital/startbootstrap-sb-admin-2.git public/templates/sb-admin-2
cd public/templates/sb-admin-2
git checkout tags/v3.3.7+1
git checkout -b v3.3.7+1
And enabled in your config file:
'stats_panel_enabled' => true,
Set the web middleware for stats routes (Laravel 5)
'stats_routes_middleware' => 'web',
Only admins can view the stats, so if you don't have an is_admin attribute on your user model, you'll have to add one:
public function getIsAdminAttribute()
{
return true;
}
It can be 'admin', 'is_admin', 'root' or 'is_root'.
Make sure Tracker is enabled in the config file. Usually this is the source of most problems.
tail -f storage/logs/laravel.log
Usually non-trackable IP addresses and other messages will appear in the log:
[2018-03-19 21:28:08] local.WARNING: TRACKER (unable to track item): 127.0.0.1 is not trackable.
This is probably related to SQL modes on MySQL, specifically with NO_ZERO_IN_DATE
and NO_ZERO_DATE
modes:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36882149/error-1067-42000-invalid-default-value-for-created-at
Because Laravel's defaults to
set session sql_mode='ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION'
You may need to change your Tracker database connection configuration to
'connections' => [
...
'tracker' => [
...
'strict' => false,
],
],
If you get an error like:
Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'tracker.users' doesn't exist
You probably need to change:
'user_model' => 'PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Models\User',
To create (or use a current) a User model:
'user_model' => 'App\TrackerUser',
And configure the Connection related to your users table:
protected $connection = 'mysql';
In your kernel
protected $middlewareGroups = [
'web' => [
.......
\PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Middlewares\Tracker::class,
],
'api' => [
.......
\PragmaRX\Tracker\Vendor\Laravel\Middlewares\Tracker::class,
],
];
