How i use Splitbee to measure web traffic on my website

Mmontsheng Maoto — Sat, 16 Jul 2022 11:54:04 +0000

Splitbee is a lightweight and easy to use web analytics tool. It allows you to collect stats about your website, such as where visitors came from, how long they stayed, how they found the site and their country.

1. Get started

Heard over to splitbee to create your free account. Sign up for a free account, and add your website on the dashboard.

2. Add Splitbee to your website.

Adding Splitbee to your website is easy. Add the following script tag to the

of your website.

<script async src="https://cdn.splitbee.io/sb.js"></script>

Ensure your script tag has the async or defer attribute.
Navigate to your website, you should now some some stats on your Splitbee dashboard.

Or even better, if you use NPM or Yarn, Splitbee has package called @splitbee/web.

Installation with npm

npm i @splitbee/web

Installation with yarn

yarn add @splitbee/web

Initialize splitbee in your main.js or entry point of your application.

splitbee.init();

3. Event tracking

Splitbee also supports custom events, you can track user actions within your app, such as sign up button click, product purchase/adding to cart.
It is as easy as

splitbee.track("Sign Up")

If you want to add custom data,

splitbee.track('CART', {
  name: 'Added product to cart',
});

splitbee.track('CART', {
  name: 'Removed product from cart',
});

Thank you for reading, for more information, see the Splitbee documentation.

My tech stack

What is a Tech stack?

Tech stack is essentially a curated list of technologies used to build, run and manage applications.

I am very comfortable to use:

Java/Spring Boot
Node.js/Express.js
Vue.js
Flutter
Docker
PostgreSQL
MySQL
Python, with google of course, take the internet away, I'm not a python developer 😝
Bash scripting
GitHub/GitLab

Servers/Routing/Hosting

I prefer digital ocean , as of writing this I am currently using the 2GB droplet.

I have docker setup on the droplet, this allows me to run my applications as docker containers.

To manage all the traffic and routing, I use traefik. A very easy to setup reverse proxy. I hope to write a post on how to set it up.

Upon signing up on digital ocean, you get a public IP address to your server, something like 216.58.223.142, That is so hard to remember, now to link that up with my domain. I bought the domain through Google domains and transferred it to Cloudflare and manange it from there. This allows me to create create a DNS entry for the IP I got from Digital Ocean.

I love CI/CD, so GitLab was my go to, I use their CI/CD tools, basically create a file, .gitlab-ci.yml with a list of jobs/steps amongst other things. In a nutshell, CI/CD involves automated testing and release/deploying of source code to users.
I will write more about this.

That's about it my tech stack.
