Add Google Analytics to Github wiki pages
github, google-analytics, javascript
Solution
You could leverage the Google Analytics for Mobile strategy.
The draw backs are that :
- You would only be able to manually publish static image urls in for each wiki page.
- You would need to host the Google Analytics for Mobile server-side file on another server. Somewhat negating the whole exercise.
Problem
I have a couple of Github projects that I want to be able to track the traffic to. I have done this in the past by adding Google Analytics tracking code to each wiki page. However, the Github wiki upgrade in September broke this and I don't seem to be able to add Javascript code to my wiki pages anymore. A couple of random other points: 1) I'm aware that Github probably blocked JS on the wiki for security reasons. 2) I know Github provides its own very basic traffic graph but I would like all the power of GA. Is there any way for me to restore Google Analytics tracking to my Github wiki? If not, is there an alternative?
