Plugin for [Gatsby](https://www.gatsbyjs.org) to add tracking with the open-source analytics platform [Matomo](https://matomo.org) (formerly Piwik) onto a site, prioritizing user experience & privacy with sensible defaults.
## Features
- 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
- dev mode for local development
## Usage
First, install the plugin from your project's root:
```bash
cd yourproject/
npm i gatsby-plugin-matomo
```
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'
}
}
]
```
