Vue.js (Vite / Client-Side)

Add OnyxMetric analytics to your Vue app

A client-side Vue app from Vite (npm create vue@latest, or the vue template of npm create vite@latest) has one index.html at the root. Add the tag there and it loads on every route.

Copy your tracking snippet

In OnyxMetric, open your site's Site Settings and copy the tracking script. It looks like this:

<script src="https://app.onyxmetric.com/api/script.js?siteId=YOUR_SITE_ID" async></script>

YOUR_SITE_ID is the numeric ID of your site.

Add the snippet to Vue.js (Vite / Client-Side)

Open index.html and add the tag inside <head>:

index.html
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8" />
  <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
  <title>My Vue App</title>
  <script src="https://app.onyxmetric.com/api/script.js?siteId=YOUR_SITE_ID" async></script>
</head>

Before </body> also works, but <head> starts loading sooner.

Check that it works

Load your live site and click through a few pages. Pageviews show up in the OnyxMetric dashboard within seconds.

If nothing arrives:

  • View the page source and search for script.js?siteId= to confirm the tag is present.
  • In the browser's Network tab, check that script.js returns 200 and that requests go to /api/track.
  • Turn off ad blockers, or proxy the script through your own domain.
  • Read script troubleshooting for other causes.

Track custom events

src/components/ActionButton.vue
<template>
  <button @click="trackAction">Track action</button>
</template>

<script setup>
function trackAction() {
  window.onyx?.event("custom_vue_action", { detail: "User performed an action" });
}
</script>

Troubleshooting

  • Missing pageviews after navigation: Vue Router navigation is tracked automatically, so test that first. If a route change is still missed, add an afterEach guard:

    src/router/index.js
    router.afterEach(() => {
      window.onyx?.pageview();
    });
