How to integrate Hyrax's Google Analytics user stats into your Rails app

THIS DOCUMENT IS DEPRECATED (BECAUSE OUTDATED AND UNTESTED ON HYRAX)

See the Hyrax Management Guide for more information on setting up Google Analytics.

Deprecated:

== Setup & Configuration

Run the generators $ rails g hyrax:models:usagestats $ rails g hyrax:models:cached_stats
Run the migrations $ rake db:migrate
Edit config/initializers/hyrax.rb
- Set config.analytics = true
- Set the config.analytic_start_date
- Set the config.google_analytics_id to your tracking ID (The tracking ID typically looks like UA-99999999-1)
Edit config/analytics.yml as described in the {README}[https://github.com/projecthydra/hyrax/blob/master/README.md#analytics]
Run the rake task to build the cache in the user_stats table, and schedule it as a nightly background job
- $ rake hyrax:stats:user_stats
- Schedule a nightly job to run that rake task so that user stats will update once a day
Update views

If your Rails app overrides the app/views/dashboard/_index_partials/_stats.html.erb file from Hyrax, then you may want to update it to display the user's combined file views & downloads stats.
