gtm_rails Build Status Gem Version git.legal

Simply embed Google Tag Manager container snippet into Rails application.

Installation

Add these lines to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'gtm_rails'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Configuration

Create config/google_tag_manager.yml in your Rails application.

staging:
  foo: GTM-YourGtmId1
  bar: GTM-YourGtmId2
  baz: GTM-YourGtmId3
production:
  foo: GTM-YourGtmId4
  bar: GTM-YourGtmId5
  baz: GTM-YourGtmId6

The above is a sample. foo, bar, baz are arbitrary label names, and replacing GTM-XXXX with your container ID.

In view, use two helper methods.

  1. google_tag_manager_script_tag(label_name)
  2. google_tag_manager_noscript_tag(label_name)

These method arguments are a label name specified in config/google_tag_manager.yml.

First, following method as close to the opening <head> tag as possible on every page of your website.

<%= google_tag_manager_script_tag(:foo) %>

Google Tag Manager container snippet will be expanded based on Rails.env and label name. If there is no match, a blank string is returned.

<!-- Google Tag Manager -->
<script>(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start':
new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],
j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src=
'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);
})(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-YourGtmId1');</script>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager -->

Second, following method immediately after the opening <body> tag on every page of your website.

<%= google_tag_manager_noscript_tag(:foo) %>

Google Tag Manager container snippet will be expanded based on Rails.env and label name. If there is no match, a blank string is returned.

<!-- Google Tag Manager (noscript) -->
<noscript><iframe src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/ns.html?id=GTM-YourGtmId1"
height="0" width="0" style="display:none;visibility:hidden"></iframe></noscript>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager (noscript) -->
