Supported libraries

Skene knows the call shape of each library. It tracks event name, properties, and where in the control flow the call sits. The list is short on purpose. If your library is not here, open an issue.

PostHog

posthog.capture(event, properties)
posthog.identify(distinctId, properties)
posthog.group(groupType, groupKey, properties)
posthog.alias(alias)

Both the browser SDK (posthog-js) and the Node SDK (posthog-node) are covered. Same call shapes, different runtimes.

Mixpanel

mixpanel.track(event, properties)
mixpanel.identify(distinctId)
mixpanel.people.set(properties)
mixpanel.register(properties)

Browser and Node SDKs both covered.

Segment

analytics.track(event, properties)
analytics.identify(userId, traits)
analytics.page(category, name, properties)
analytics.screen(name, properties)
analytics.group(groupId, traits)

Works with analytics-node and the browser analytics.js.

Amplitude

amplitude.track(eventName, eventProperties)
amplitude.identify(identifyObject)
amplitude.setUserId(userId)
amplitude.groupIdentify(groupType, groupName, identifyObject)

The newer @amplitude/analytics-browser and @amplitude/analytics-node SDKs.

Heap

heap.track(event, properties)
heap.identify(identity)
heap.addUserProperties(properties)

Both the browser SDK and the server SDK.

Snowplow

trackSelfDescribingEvent({ event, context })
trackStructEvent({ category, action, label, property, value })

Both @snowplow/browser-tracker and @snowplow/node-tracker.
