# Java SDK

The FancyAnalytics platform is still in development. Expect breaking changes in the future.

If you are a Java developer, who wants to track metrics about your Java application, without being in the Minecraft ecosystem, you can use our Java SDK. The Java SDK is a general purpose SDK which can be used to track metrics about any Java application.

# Include the Java SDK

# Gradle

repositories {
    maven("https://repo.fancyinnovations.com/releases")
}

dependencies {
    implementation("de.oliver.fancyanalytics:java-sdk:VERSION")
}

# Maven

<repository>
    <id>fancyplugins-releases</id>
    <name>FancyPlugins Repository</name>
    <url>https://repo.fancyinnovations.com/releases</url>
</repository>

<dependency>
    <groupId>de.oliver.FancyAnalytics</groupId>
    <artifactId>java-sdk</artifactId>
    <version>VERSION</version>
</dependency>

Make sure to shade the API into your app! You can use the Shade plugin for this.

# Use the API

# Initialize the ApiClient

First you need to create an instance of the ApiClient class.

ApiClient fancyAnalytics = new ApiClient("https://api.fancyanalytics.net", "", "YOUR API TOKEN");

# Send metric data

You can send metric data to the server using the record service.

Record record = new Record("unique sender id", "project id", timestamp, new HashMap<>());
record.withEntry("metric name", "metric value");

fancyAnalytics.getRecordService().createRecord("project id", record);

# Send events

You can also send events to the server using the event service.

Event event = new Event("event name", new HashMap<>());
event.withProperty("prop key", "prop value");

fancyAnalytics.getEventService().createEvent("project id", event);
