Warning: This crate is still under development and is not recommended for production use yet.

Installation

Install the posthog-rs crate by adding it to your Cargo.toml.

[dependencies]
posthog-rs = "0.2.0"

Usage

To setup the client, all you need to do is pass your PostHog project key.

let client = posthog_rs::client(env!("POSTHOG_API_KEY"));

Note: Currently, there is no way to customize the host that events are sent to, and we default to app.posthog.com

Capturing events

Currently, the only functionality this library supports is sending events, which can be done using the capture and capture_batch methods. User properties and groups can both be set as props on events.

let mut event = Event::new("<event_name>", "<distinct_id>");

event.insert_prop("key1", "value1").unwrap();
event.insert_prop("key2", vec!["a", "b"]).unwrap();

client.capture(event).unwrap();

let event1 = posthog_rs::Event::new("event 1", "1234");
let event2 = posthog_rs::Event::new("event 2", "1234");

client.capture_batch(vec![event1, event2]).unwrap();
