How to use Google Analytics with AngularFire?

Question

I have an Angular app build with AngularFire and hosted on Firebase. How should I be using Analytics SDK to set the user ID, track page loads and log custom events?

AngularFire is now supporting Firebase Analytics since version 5.3.0.

You can update your dependencies :

"@angular/fire": "^5.2.3",
"firebase": "^7.8.0"

As mentioned by AngularFire Docs, you just have to add AngularFireAnalyticsModule :

import { AngularFireAnalyticsModule } from '@angular/fire/analytics';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    AngularFireModule.initializeApp(environment.firebase),
    AngularFireAnalyticsModule
  ]
})
export class AppModule { }

Be sure to add your appId and measurementId to your config file. (retrieve from Firebase Console, after enabling Analytics).
