Percept-flutter

Introducing the official Percept Flutter SDK

Getting Started

1. Install

1. Add the following lines to your package's pubspec.yaml file to include the dependency:

dependencies:
      percept_flutter: ^1.0.0

2. To install the package, use the following command in your command line interface:

$ flutter pub get

3. Import the package in your Dart code to make it available for use:

import 'package:percept_flutter/percept_flutter.dart'

2. Initialize Percept SDK

import 'package:percept_flutter/percept_flutter.dart'

class YourClassState extends State<YourClass> {
  Percept percept;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    percept=Percept(token)
  }
}

Percept constructor takes some optional parameters which are as follows:

Parameter Name	Description	Default Value
autoCaptureAppLifecycleEvents	Auto track app life cycle events or not	true
maxBatchSize	Default batch size of event requests	100
maxDelayMins	Maximum interval between retry requests in case of failure	30 min
maxCacheSizeMb	Maximum cache size used to store failed requests	10 mb
clearAfterDays	Days after which stored failed requests are deleted in case of retry failure	7 days

int maxBatchSize = 100, int maxDelayMins = 30, int maxCacheSizeMb = 10, int clearAfterDays = 7

NOTE: Token is the percept workspace token associated with your app.

3. Set user

After successfully initializing the SDK, On login set current User using the following function.

percept.setUser(userId: "userId",userProperties: {UserProperty.name:"TestUser"}, additionalProperties: {"isVerifiedAccount": true})

4. Set currrent user properties

use setCurrentUserProperties method to set properties on the user profile created by setUser

// first call this method
await percept.setUser(userId: 'U1');

// sets user `deviceToken` and `isPaidUser` property to true
percept.setCurrentUserProperties(userProperties: {UserProperty.deviceToken:"token"}, additionalProperties: {"isPaidUser": true})

UserProperties can only have keys present in the UserProperty enum which are as follows.

User Property Name	Description
userId	UserId associated with the user
name	name of the user
phone	Phone number associated with the user
email	Email ID associated with the user
deviceToken	FCM token for the device

To get your firebase token you can use:

FirebaseMessaging.instance.getToken()

or

FirebaseMessaging.instance.onTokenRefresh.listen((token) => { });

5. Engage

Integration with Firebase Messaging: To streamline push notification functionality and accurately monitor their impact on attribution.

1. Capture when app session is initiated from terminated state by interacting with push notification.

// Get any messages which caused the application to open from a terminated state.
RemoteMessage? initialMessage = await FirebaseMessaging.instance.getInitialMessage();
   if (initialMessage != null) {
      _percept.trackPNTerminated(initialMessage.toMap());
   }

2. Capture when app session is resumed from background state by interacting with push notification.

// Get any messages which caused the application to open from a terminated state.
FirebaseMessaging.onMessageOpenedApp.listen(
   (message) => _percept.trackPNBackground(message.toMap()),
);

2. Capture when the app was in foreground and the push notification was received.

// Get any messages which were received when the app was in foreground.
FirebaseMessaging.onMessage.listen(
   (message) => _percept.trackPNForeground(message.toMap()),
);

This property will be tracked by pi_pn_attribution property in every subsequently tracked event.

pi_pn_attribution	Description
terminated	Interaction with pn initiated current app session from terminated state
background	Interaction with pn resumed current app session from background state
foreground	Notification was received when the app was in foreground state
none	Current session is not attributed to any pn

Along with pi_pn_attribution property following properties are tracked:

Property_name	Description
pi_pn_targetUrl	TargetUrl in the notification payload
pi_pn_campaignId	CampaignId associated with the notificaiton
pi_pn_campaignName	CampaignName associated with the notificaiton
pi_pn_campaignSource	CampaignSource associated with the notificaiton

Note: It is essential to have Firebase Messaging implemented to enable support for these properties.

6. Send Event

You can capture event using the following function. Percept automatically generates a unique ID and stores it in local storage or a cookie.

// Track only event-name
percept.capture('Referral Banner Click');

// Track event-name with property
percept.capture('Screen View', {'screenName': 'Homepage'});

After initializing the library, Percept will automatically track some properties by default

7. Set Global Properties

Set global properties which will be passed with all subsequent events

percept.setGlobalProperties({'global-property-key', 'value'});

8. Get all global properties

Get all global properties

percept.getGlobalProperties();

9. Clear

Call clear function on logout to delete all user related information

percept.clear()
