**Deprecation notice: [Gatsby has been abandoned](https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby/issues/38696) so maintaining this plugin does not make much sense. It will receive occasional dependency updates and will be archived at the end of 2024.**

## Features

Plugin uses sensible defaults prioritizing user experience, performance & privacy:

- include tracking code in all server-side rendered routes
- track all route views as custom events
- load tracking scripts at end of `body` tag
- use image tracking fallback for `noscript`
- don't load anything when visitor has Do Not Track enabled
- don't load anything in non-production environments
- consent mode for privacy
- allow loading tracking script locally
- define paths to be excluded from tracking
- `preconnect` to configured Matomo host url
- dev mode for local development

## Usage

1. First, install the plugin from your project's root:

```bash
cd yourproject/
npm i gatsby-plugin-matomo
```

2. Then load the plugin from your `gatsby-config.js` and set the required variables:

```js
plugins: [
{
resolve: 'gatsby-plugin-matomo',
options: {
siteId: 'YOUR_SITE_ID',
matomoUrl: 'https://YOUR_MATOMO_URL.COM',
siteUrl: 'https://YOUR_LIVE_SITE_URL.COM'
}
}
]
```

3. That's it!

_NOTE: By default, this plugin only generates output when run in production mode. To test your tracking code, run `gatsby build && gatsby serve`, or set `dev` option to `true`_.

### Options

| Option | Explanation |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `siteId` | Your Matomo site ID configured in your Matomo installation. |
| `matomoUrl` | The url of your Matomo installation. |
| `siteUrl` | The url of your site, usually the same as `siteMetadata.siteUrl`. Only used for generating the url for `noscript` image tracking fallback. |
| `matomoPhpScript` | (optional) The name of your Matomo PHP script. Defaults to `matomo.php` |
| `matomoJsScript` | (optional) The name of your Matomo JS script. Defaults to `matomo.js` |
| `exclude` | (optional) Specify an array of pathnames where tracking code will be excluded. The pathname `/offline-plugin-app-shell-fallback/` is excluded by default. |
| `requireConsent` | (optional) If true, tracking will be disabled until you call `window._paq.push(['setConsentGiven']);`. |
| `requireCookieConsent` | (optional) If true, no cookies will be stored or used until you call `window._paq.push(['setCookieConsentGiven']);`. |
| `disableCookies` | (optional) If true, no cookie will be used by Matomo. |
| `cookieDomain` | (optional) Specify cookie domain. |
| `localScript` | (optional) If set, load local `matomo.js` script from the given path, instead of loading it from your `matomoUrl`. |
| `trackLoad` | (optional) If true, it will track the loading of the matomo library. Defaults to `true`. |
| `respectDnt` | (optional) If false, will load all scripts without respecting user preference to `Do Not Track` on browsers. Defaults to `true`. |
| `dev` | (optional) Activate dev mode by setting to `true`. Will load all scripts despite not running in `production` environment. Ignores your local browser's DNT header too. Outputs some information in console about what it is doing. Useful for local testing but careful: all hits will be send like in production. |
| `enableJSErrorTracking` | (optional) Enable basic JavaScript error tracking and reporting in Matomo by setting to `true`. |
| `additionalTrackers` | (optional) An array of additional trackers to track on different Matomo servers. Additional trackers are objects with the keys `siteId` and `trackerUrl` containing the full URL to the Matomo PHP script. Defaults to `[]`. |
