Track waitlist signup events via NodeJs

Say you have just come up with a great new product idea, and you're seriously considering turning it into a real product. Or maybe you have been working on a product for a while and are almost ready to launch it.

Usually, for both of these cases, developers create a prelaunch landing page before launching the product and set up a waitlist to collect user emails and monitor the demand for the product.

The prelaunch landing page is a great way to get your product idea out to the world and to get people interested in your product or idea. It also allows you to gather user feedback and get their input into your product.

LogSnag makes it easy to set up and track a prelaunch waitlist for your product or idea using NodeJs. It is a simple event tracking tool that allows you to track, analyze and create reports from your waitlist data.

Using NodeJs with Axios

const axios = require('axios');
let data = JSON.stringify({
  "project": "my-saas",
  "channel": "auth",
  "event": "Waitlist Member Added",
  "description": "email: john@doe.com",
  "icon": "⏰",
  "notify": true
});

let config = {
  method: 'post',
  maxBodyLength: Infinity,
  url: 'https://api.logsnag.com/v1/log',
  headers: { 
    'Content-Type': 'application/json', 
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
  },
  data : data
};

axios.request(config)
.then((response) => {
  console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch((error) => {
  console.log(error);
});

Using NodeJs with Native

var https = require('follow-redirects').https;
var fs = require('fs');

var options = {
  'method': 'POST',
  'hostname': 'api.logsnag.com',
  'path': '/v1/log',
  'headers': {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
  },
  'maxRedirects': 20
};

var req = https.request(options, function (res) {
  var chunks = [];

  res.on("data", function (chunk) {
    chunks.push(chunk);
  });

  res.on("end", function (chunk) {
    var body = Buffer.concat(chunks);
    console.log(body.toString());
  });

  res.on("error", function (error) {
    console.error(error);
  });
});

var postData = JSON.stringify({
  "project": "my-saas",
  "channel": "auth",
  "event": "Waitlist Member Added",
  "description": "email: john@doe.com",
  "icon": "⏰",
  "notify": true
});

req.write(postData);

req.end();

Using NodeJs with Request

var request = require('request');
var options = {
  'method': 'POST',
  'url': 'https://api.logsnag.com/v1/log',
  'headers': {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "project": "my-saas",
    "channel": "auth",
    "event": "Waitlist Member Added",
    "description": "email: john@doe.com",
    "icon": "⏰",
    "notify": true
  })

};
request(options, function (error, response) {
  if (error) throw new Error(error);
  console.log(response.body);
});

Using NodeJs with Unirest

var unirest = require('unirest');
var req = unirest('POST', 'https://api.logsnag.com/v1/log')
  .headers({
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
  })
  .send(JSON.stringify({
    "project": "my-saas",
    "channel": "auth",
    "event": "Waitlist Member Added",
    "description": "email: john@doe.com",
    "icon": "⏰",
    "notify": true
  }))
  .end(function (res) { 
    if (res.error) throw new Error(res.error); 
    console.log(res.raw_body);
  });
