# Legato

Legato provides query access through the official [Google Analytics Reporting API v4](https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4/)

## Installation

[Available in Hex](https://hex.pm/packages/legato), the package can be installed as:

1. Add `legato` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
[{:legato, "~> 0.2.0"}]
end
```

2. Ensure `legato` is started before your application:

```elixir
def application do
[applications: [:legato]]
end
```

Get an oauth access token from Google

"Authorization: Bearer token_here"

HTTPoison.post "https://analyticsreporting.googleapis.com/v4/reports:batchGet", "{}", [{"Authorization", "Bearer token_here"}]

* [x] Collect data into Query struct
* [x] Convert query into Request JSON, encode with Poison
* [x] Send request to GA
* [x] Decode response
* [x] Parse data into struct
* [x] support metric expression strings
* [x] add filters to Query
* [x] add date ranges to Query
* [x] add order by to Query
* [x] add segment_id to Query
* [x] add Sampling
* [x] put report struct into named struct
* [ ] add segments to Query (long goal)

```elixir
profile = %Legato.Profile{access_token: oauth2_access_token, view_id: view_id}
```

```elixir
defmodule ExitReport do
defstruct :exits, :pageviews, :country
end
```

```elixir
import Legato.Query

alias Legato.Request
alias Legato.Report

profile |>
metrics([:exits, :pageviews]) |>
dimensions([:country]) |>
filter(:exits, :gt, 10) |>
between(start_date, end_date) |> # first date range for the query
between(another_start_date, another_end_date) |> # adds subsequent date ranges
order_by(:pageviews, :descending) |>
segment(-3) |>
sampling(:small) |>
Request.all |>
Report.as(ExitReport)
```

If you'd like to use relative dates, I suggest trying `timex`.
`segment` with an integer will clear any segments, cannot be mixed with dynamic segments.
