react-ab
Simple declarative and universal A/B testing component for React.
Demo
Install
npm install react-ab --saveor
bower install react-ab --saveExamples
Using Mixpanel.
var Experiment = require("react-ab").Experiment
, Variant = require("react-ab").Variant;
var App = React.createClass({
choice: function (experiment, variant, index) {
mixpanel.register({
"tagline": variant
});
}
, click: function (e) {
mixpanel.track("click");
}
, render: function () {
return (
<div>
<Experiment onChoice={this.choice} name="tagline">
<Variant name="normal">
<h1> A A/B testing component for React </h1>
</Variant>
<Variant name="enterprise">
<h1> A vertically integrated React component </h1>
</Variant>
<Variant name="lies">
<h1> One weird React component that will increase your metrics by 100%! </h1>
</Variant>
</Experiment>
<a onClick={this.click} href="//github.com/olahol/react-ab">React AB component</a>
</div>
);
}
});Using Google Universal Analytics. Requires a Custom Dimension.
var Experiment = require("react-ab").Experiment
, Variant = require("react-ab").Variant;
var randomGoogle = function () {
// base randomness off analytics.js client id.
// https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/platform/user-id#clientid-userid
var clientId = tracker.get("clientId");
return (parseFloat(clientId, 10) % 100) / 100;
};
var App = React.createClass({
choice: function (experiment, variant) {
var dimension = 1; // Index of your custom dimension.
ga("set", "dimension" + dimension, experiment + ": " + variant);
}
, click: function (e) {
ga("send", "event", "click", "link");
}
, render: function () {
return (
<div>
<Experiment onChoice={this.choice} random={randomGoogle} name="tagline">
<Variant name="normal">
<h1> A A/B testing component for React </h1>
</Variant>
<Variant name="enterprise">
<h1> A vertically integrated React component </h1>
</Variant>
<Variant name="lies">
<h1> One weird React component that will increase your metrics by 100%! </h1>
</Variant>
</Experiment>
<a onClick={this.click} href="//github.com/olahol/react-ab">React AB component</a>
</div>
);
}
});Universality is achieved by setting get, set, clear. Here is an example
server side with Express.js and using ES6:
import express from "express";
import cookieParser from "cookie-parser";
import React from "react/addons";
import { Experiment, Variant } from "react-ab";
var App = React.createClass({
choice: function (experiment, variant, index) {
console.log(experiment, variant, index);
}
, render: function () {
return (
<div>
<Experiment {...this.props} onChoice={this.choice} name="tagline">
<Variant name="normal">
<h1> A A/B testing component for React </h1>
</Variant>
<Variant name="enterprise">
<h1> A vertically integrated React component </h1>
</Variant>
<Variant name="lies">
<h1> One weird React component that will increase your metrics by 100%! </h1>
</Variant>
</Experiment>
</div>
);
}
});
var app = express();
app.use(cookieParser());
app.get("/", function (req, res) {
res.send(React.renderToString(<App
get={(x) => req.cookies[x]}
set={(x, y) => res.cookie(x, y)}
clear={res.clearCookie}
/>));
});
app.listen(3000);API
