Testing the Android SDK for Piwik

[mattab]

The goal of this project is to build a SDK for Android to measure your apps with Piwik. We have started implementing the SDK. We are now looking for help from the community to review and test our Android SDK!

If you are:

• familiar with SDK app development
• familiar with Java
• and you can spare a bit of time to help us review the SDK and test it on your Android App

please leave a comment in this issue.

With your help we can make the official Android SDK for Piwik a success :+1: Thank you!

(we will notify you here as soon as the SDK is ready to be reviewed and tested!)

Hi, I'm available for the review and testing task. I'm OK with the first two bullet points, I'll try to gain the third...

Perfect timing. I have time, talent, and the immediate need for this.

[adamstyrc]

Hello, I could make code review and some tests

@ceskobassman @adamstyrc Please take a look at #2 and #3 pull requests.

[mattab]

@adamstyrc @shoon if you have some time already, feel free to take a look at #2 and #3 and we appreciate your review and feedback!

Hello I can help in testing Android SDK. Can I have SDK tested using a self hosted version of PIWIK?

Thank you

[dotsbb]

@Euphrates-Media Take a look at 2_demo_app branch. You should overwrite only 3 methods in order to connect Your apk with self hosted piwik instance.

@dotsbb Thanks, I started loving PIWIK :)

[a-v-ebrahimi]

@dotsbb You mean these 3?

I just added a website to piwik panel, how to get these 3 numbers from panel?

thank you

public String getTrackerUrl() { return ""; }

public String getAuthToken() {
    return "";
}

public Integer getSiteId() {
    return 1;
}

@Euphrates-Media TrackerUrl - Tracking HTTP API endpoint, for example: http://your-piwik-domain.tld/piwik.php authToken - http://piwik.org/faq/general/#faq_114 siteId - id of created website. Could be found here: Settings -> Website -> Value in ID column

[a-v-ebrahimi]

Thank you for quick reply.

Good job. Got this up and running in my app pretty quickly. Will probably be making a couple comments on the pull requests if you don't mind.

[mattab]

Kuddos @dotsbb for the early release of the SDK!

and great to hear you are making progress @lttldrgn @Euphrates-Media

of course, we would love to hear your feedback on the pull requests and the SDK in general! :+1:

[a-v-ebrahimi]

@dotsbb I started using SDK, seems working fine. Just a little problem, it seems all saved geolocations are location of server, not of location of mobile device?! Or may be it can't reverse geoloc my device ip and says it's US, right?

[mattab]

@Euphrates-Media Check these few things:

• in Visitors>Visitor Log whether the IP of your visitors are set properly. Maybe all your visitors have the IP of your server?
• check you are using Piwik 2.7.0
• Also what Geo location provider are you using? Only the PECL and the PHP providers will be able to correctly detect the geo-location information for a custom IP. Could you maybe check?

[mattab]

Hi guys, have you had a chance to test the Android SDK on one of your app? Did it work for you?

[a-v-ebrahimi]

Hi Yes, we've test it in our app and it's working great. Thank you :)

[dotsbb]

Hi guys, please take a look at our SDK documentation and let us know if it clean and understandable.

• Getting started with SDK
• JavaDoc API reference
• Detailed documentation

Please comment all typos, errors and suggestions in #12 pull request.

[mattab]

Hi guys, the documentation was merged here: https://github.com/piwik/piwik-sdk-android

Please report if you have any suggestion or feedback. We hope you enjoy Mobile App Analytics with Piwik and our Android SDK!

@mattab this could also be closed so people create new issues for any more changes or concerns they have.

[mattab]

sounds good, the SDK has been publicly released so this issue can be closed. Well done @dotsbb and now also you @d4rken :)
