Set up ahoy app

[furilo]

Repo: https://github.com/TrackDons/web-analytics

Things:

• I modified the .js so it listens on localhost:4000 https://github.com/TrackDons/web-analytics/blob/master/public/ahoy.js#L24
• I included this in trackdons (not comitted):

  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:4000/ahoy.js"></script>
  <script>
    ahoy.trackAll();
  </script>

• When loading TrackDons, I get a CORS error:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://localhost:4000/ahoy/events. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:3000' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 404.

• I tried with this http://leopard.in.ua/2012/07/08/using-cors-with-rails/ and this http://demisx.github.io/rails-api/2014/02/18/configure-accept-headers-cors.html - without success.

Any hint @ferblape ?

Could you try adding Access-Control-Request-Method in the header? Something like this:

headers['Access-Control-Allow-Origin'] = '*'
headers['Access-Control-Allow-Methods'] = 'GET, POST, PATCH, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, HEAD'
headers['Access-Control-Request-Method'] = '*'
headers['Access-Control-Allow-Headers'] = 'Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept, Authorization'
headers['Access-Control-Max-Age'] = '86400'

I could not try it, I'm getting an error bootstrapping the analytics app when rake db:setup:

ArgumentError: Invalid route name, already in use: 'ahoy_engine'

Problem with routes, maybe its what I added in routes.rb which is not needed?

And that's one of the things I tried (although maybe incorrectly...)

Sorry, I've never fighted against CORS. I'll take a look in the weekend!

I have fixed the issue in web-analytics repo, but I can't commit!

Now you can

Thanks.

Now it worked for me. It looks like the OPTIONS route is mandatory, or at
least that's what I found in the internet.

I haven't had time to play with Ahoy, but it looks like is recording the
analytics, despite that is not tracing any request in the log of the
application!
