How to work with Ampli & Amplitude?

In Boldare Radar we are using Amplitude as an Analytics Software. With Amplitude we are also testing Ampli which is a new tool that allows us to verify if all defined events are used in Application.

What is Ampli?

Ampli allows us to generate code to track the events more easily, by using abstraction called ampli, which gives us option to treat all Analytics Events as methods, example:

ampli.openRadar();
ampli.viewItem({ name: "Microfrontends", quadrant: "Techniques", ring: "Scaling" });

How I can use Ampli?

Ampli is defined as dev-dependency in Boldare Radar. You can call the ampli by using methods:

ampli pull

And to verify if all events tracked in Amplitude are implemented in source code, you can run:

ampli status -u

How to run Amplitude on Dev Environment?

In order to run the Amplitude on dev environment you need to create .env file in your local repository. Inside that .env file create variable:

REACT_APP_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY = key

Replace the key with Development key that You can generate from Amplitude or obtain from Maintainers.
