Problem/Motivation

We track page views, but people do more than view pages. We should track more actions and allow custom actions.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Create an additional table to track visitors' actions (visitors_action)

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

  • Page views
  • Page refresh
  • Site Search
  • External Link
  • Ecommerce Carts change Add/Remove
  • Ecommerce abandoned cart
  • Ecommerce cart checkout complete
  • File download
  • Media play, seek, etc
  • User logout
  • Account Switch
  • Form submit
    • form:form_name
    • form:user_login_form

API changes

plugin: Entity
action: defined by route; collection, canonical
plugin_int_1: entity id
plugin_int_2: revision id
plugin_var_1: entity_type
plugin_var_2: bundle or config entity id
plugin_var_3: base form id
plugin_var_4: form id

plugin: Form
action: view/validate/submit
plugin_int_1
plugin_int_2
plugin_var_1
plugin_var_2
plugin_var_3: base form id
plugin_var_4: form id

Data model changes

Rename visitors_view table to visitors_action

Add these columns to visitors_action:

plugin
action
plugin_int_1
plugin_int_2
plugin_var_1
plugin_var_2
plugin_var_3
plugin_var_4
