Manual Installation

Installation iOS

  1. npm install react-native-mixpanel --save
  2. Install Mixpanel iOS SDK via either Cocoapods or manually more info here
  3. In XCode, in the project navigator, right click LibrariesAdd Files to [your project's name]
  4. Go to node_modulesreact-native-mixpanel and add RNMixpanel.xcodeproj
  5. In XCode, in the project navigator, select your project. Add libRNMixpanel.a to your project's Build PhasesLink Binary With Libraries
  6. Click RNMixpanel.xcodeproj in the project navigator and go the Build Settings tab. Make sure 'All' is toggled on (instead of 'Basic'). Look for Header Search Paths and make sure it contains both $(SRCROOT)/../react-native/React and $(SRCROOT)/../../React - mark both as recursive.

Installation Android

  • In android/setting.gradle
...
include ':RNMixpanel', ':app'
project(':RNMixpanel').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-mixpanel/android')
  • In android/app/build.gradle
...
dependencies {
    ...
    compile project(':RNMixpanel')
}
  • register module (in MainActivity.java)

On newer versions of React Native register module (MainApplication.java):

import com.kevinejohn.RNMixpanel.*;  // <--- import

public class MainActivity extends ReactActivity {
  ......

  /**
   * A list of packages used by the app. If the app uses additional views
   * or modules besides the default ones, add more packages here.
   */
    @Override
    protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
      return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
        new RNMixpanel(), // <------ add here
        new MainReactPackage());
    }
}

Usage

//Require the module
var Mixpanel = require('react-native-mixpanel');

//Init Mixpanel SDK with your project token
Mixpanel.sharedInstanceWithToken(YOUR_PROJECT_TOKEN);

//Send and event name with no properties
Mixpanel.track("Event name");

//Track event with properties
Mixpanel.trackWithProperties('Click Button', {button_type: 'yellow button', button_text: 'magic button'});

//Create Alias from unique id
Mixpanel.createAlias(UNIQUE_ID)

//Identify
Mixpanel.identify(UNIQUE_ID)

//Set People properties
Mixpanel.set({"$email": "elvis@email.com"});

//Set People Properties Once
Mixpanel.setOnce({"$email": "elvis@email.com", "Created": new Date().toISOString()});

// Timing Events
// Sets the start time for an action, for example uploading an image
Mixpanel.timeEvent("Image Upload");
// to be followed by a tracking event to define the end time
Mixpanel.track("Image Upload");

// Register super properties
Mixpanel.registerSuperProperties({"Account type": "Free", "User Type": "Vendor"});

// Register super properties Once
Mixpanel.registerSuperPropertiesOnce({"Gender": "Female"});

// track Revenue
Mixpanel.trackCharge(399);

// track with properties
Mixpanel.trackChargeWithProperties(399, {"product": "ACME Wearable tech"});

// increment property
Mixpanel.increment("Login Count", 1);

// send push notifications token to Mixpanel
Mixpanel.initPushHandling("token_from_apple_or_google");

// Mixpanel reset method
Mixpanel.reset();

// get the last distinct id set with identify or, if identify hasn't been
// called, the default mixpanel id for this device.
Mixpanel.getDistinctId(function(id){})
