Svelte

Svelte analytics with Stickybeak starts by adding its script to your rendered pages; this guide shows you where it belongs and how to track page views, goals and purchase revenue. It is a lighter alternative to Google Analytics for Svelte, with live visitors, goals and revenue attribution in one script.

#Add the script

1. #Copy your snippet

   In Stickybeak, open Settings, pick your site and copy the HTML snippet.

2. #Paste it into index.html

   It's at the project root. Paste it before </head>.

   <!doctype html>
   <html lang="en">
     <head>
       <meta charset="UTF-8" />
       <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
       <title>My app</title>
       <script
         defer
         data-site="YOUR_SITE_ID"
         data-domain="example.com"
         src="https://app.usestickybeak.com/_cfw/s.js"
       ></script>
     </head>
     <body>
       <div id="app"></div>
       <script type="module" src="/src/main.ts"></script>
     </body>
   </html>

   Keep it a plain <script>, without type="module".

3. #Build and deploy

   Visits appear once the new build is live. Local development on localhost isn't counted.

To keep the ID out of the file, put VITE_STICKYBEAK_SITE_ID=YOUR_SITE_ID in .env.production and write data-site="%VITE_STICKYBEAK_SITE_ID%". Vite fills it in at build time.

#Check it's working

Test the deployed site, then verify your install.

#Track goals

Add data-goal to rendered links or buttons. For other events, use the typed queued helper below. See Custom goals.

<button data-goal="initiate_checkout" data-goal-plan="pro" onclick={openCheckout}>Upgrade</button>

type GoalProps = Record<string, string | number | boolean>;
type Stickybeak = ((goal: string, props?: GoalProps) => void) & { q?: unknown[][] };

declare global {
  interface Window {
    stickybeak?: Stickybeak;
  }
}

export function track(goal: string, props?: GoalProps): void {
  if (typeof window === "undefined") return; // on the server: nothing to do
  if (!window.stickybeak) {
    // Hold calls made before the script loads; it sends them when it arrives.
    const queue: Stickybeak = (...args) => {
      (queue.q ??= []).push(args);
    };
    window.stickybeak = queue;
  }
  window.stickybeak(goal, props);
}

<script lang="ts">
  import { track } from "./stickybeak";

  let { url }: { url: string } = $props();

  async function share() {
    await navigator.clipboard.writeText(url);
    track("share_link_copied");
  }
</script>

<button type="button" onclick={share}>Copy link</button>

#Track purchases

After confirming an order in the browser, send:

window.stickybeak?.("purchase", { revenue: 49, currency: "USD", order_id: "ORDER_ID" });

Use real values; see Revenue.

#Page changes

History routers such as svelte-routing count new paths. Hash routers such as svelte-spa-router appear as one page. See Single-page apps.

#If it isn't working

Check the production site ID and domain, then see Troubleshooting.
