Usage
Goal Tracking
License

Install

npm install gatsby-plugin-fathom

Usage

By default, this plugin only generates output when run in production mode. To test your tracking code, run gatsby build && gatsby serve.

Options

Option	Explanation
`trackingUrl`	Your Fathom custom domain (optional)
`siteId`	Fathom site ID

Example

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: 'gatsby-plugin-fathom',
      options: {
        // Your custom domain, defaults to `cdn.usefathom.com`
        trackingUrl: 'your-fathom-instance.com',
        // Unique site id
        siteId: 'FATHOM_SITE_ID'
      }
    }
  ]
}

Example using environment variables

You may want to use different site ids across different deployments. This is best achieved by defining config in environment variables. The value will be read on build-time, e.g. during CI.

# .env.production
FATHOM_SITE_ID=ABCDEF

// gatsby-config.js
require('dotenv').config({
  path: `.env.${process.env.NODE_ENV}`
})

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: 'gatsby-plugin-fathom',
      options: {
        siteId: process.env.FATHOM_SITE_ID
      }
    }
  ]
}

Goal Tracking

You can import a hook for tracking goals in any component like so:

import { useGoal } from 'gatsby-plugin-fathom'

export default function Foo() {
  // can pass true as the 2nd param in order to console log the tracked goal's ID
  // useful for debugging in development
  const handleGoal = useGoal('GOAL-ID')

  return <button onClick={handleGoal}>Click me</button>
}
