usage_data

This module is intended for internal site analytics, treating things like page views, clicks and downloads as events which are recorded to a table, possibly to replace Drupal core's Statistics module.

Please be responsible when collecting data from your users.

Version 2.0

Usage type plugins are used to create specific tracking tables for whatever needs you may have. Plugins can define what is tracked and additional table schema if needed to store additional data.

.htaccess alteration

In order for this module to work, you need to allow the custom controller in your .htaccess. Below the Statistics module's rule add similar condition:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/modules/contrib/usage_data/usage_data\.php$

Features

• A pluggable system to allow endless tracking abilities based on any event
• A default "Generic" plugin that will track the most common page views from:
  • Node
  • Media
  • Taxonomy Terms
  • Commerce Products
  • Routes
  • Views Pages
• JS-triggered tracking for click events (View README)
• Custom Data Structures
• Queue support to prevent DB stampeding (use via Redis, etc)
• Track Downloads via hook_download()

Version 1.0

You can then pull your data out with Views Database Connector or by writing your own queries. You can add your own columns to the usage_data table by writing your own install hook (hook_install()) in a custom module.

See the README for the default table structure.
