##Google analytics Data pull
Lightweight Golang library for pulling Google Analytics API data. Built for use with Core Reporting API (v3):
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v3/reference
Is being used for BAU report generation and collation. Pull requests welcome!
Authentication
In order to authenticate this library for use with your Google Analytics account, an oauth2 token needs to be generated. For a new project login to Google Developers Console and Create Project. Add Analytics API to list of APIs, create a new Client ID and download it in JSON format. Place the client_secret.json in the root of your application.
Usage
Example single request flow:
go
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/vly/go-gadata"
)
func main() {
// initialise GAData
gaTest := new(GAData)
// initialise instance incl. authentication
gaTest.Init()
// build a basic GA query, replace your ga ID
testRequest := GaRequest{"ga:43047246", // GA id
"2014-01-01", // start date
"2014-01-02", // end date
"ga:visits", // metrics
"ga:day", // dimensions
"", // filters
"", // segments
"", // sort
100} // results no.
// launch data
result := gaTemp.GetData(1, &testRequest)
fmt.Printf("results: %s\n", result)
}
}
Example multiple requests flow. Returns a sorted slice (array) of results...
go
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/vly/go-gadata"
)
func main() {
// initialise GAData
gaTest := new(gadata.GAData)
// initialise instance incl. authentication
gaTest.Init()
// build a basic GA query, replace your ga ID
for i := 0; i < 5; i++ {
testRequests = append(testRequests, &GaRequest{"ga:43047246",
"2014-01-0" + strconv.Itoa(i+1),
"2014-01-0" + strconv.Itoa(i+2),
"ga:visits",
"ga:day",
"",
"",
"",
100})
}
if results, err := gaTemp.BatchGet(testRequests); err == nil {
for a, b := range results {
log.Printf("results: %d: %s", a, b)
}
}
}
