Hey there!
this.dataset returns camelCase, but I'm returning them in kebab-case, so that the event properties reflect exactly how the element had them written, minus the data prefix. e.g.
<div data-foo-bar="baz"></div>Would be:
properties: {
data: {
"foo-bar": "baz"
}
}

Description
This PR allows tracking an element's
dataattributes if they're present.Motivation
Allow easier querying and segmenting of events. For example on 2 different pages:
Adding an id and grouping identifier to them:
Will allow you to both:
Note that you can't rely on the
id, because it might be used for some other JS and might change.Also, Ahoy's
data-sectionis pretty limiting, since you can only use it for one of the above things. That is, either identifying an event across text changes, or grouping multiple links/forms, but not both.Example
Clicking the "Open Github" link above will provide:
Get the events for onboarding:
Get the events for clicks on the "Open Github" link, even if the text changed:
This will work even if the event has other properties on the data attribute.
