Analytics dispatcher and configuration management for custom usage

I am looking for a component that would act as an event dispatcher for Android Analytics or for a whole custom Analytics solution.

I found some pretty neat code from the recently released Parse Android SDK.
I will use some part of it, if no other solution will appear.
But maybe there is something simpler.

Ideally, I would like to have something similar to what ARAnalytics is, plus some custom analytics/usage sender pointing to my service.

Are there any production-ready components for that?

you can do like this

// Set the dispatch period in seconds.
GoogleAnalytics.getInstance(this).setLocalDispatchPeriod(30);

and also Google has introduced Firebase analytics google now recommends developer to use firebase refer: https://firebase.google.com/docs/analytics/

If I understand correctly, you need to send extra events and perform custom post-processing on those events.

You could use something like PIWIK to track your custom events locally. Then you'd need to write a glue between your server and PIWIK (or write the functionality you desire as a PIWIK module).

Alternatively, you could sent events to Mixpanel and export them periodically to your server (e.g. in a cronjob). Then, your server can do whatever post-processing it needs to do.

As a side note, when I was experimenting with Google Analytics and Mixpanel, I wrote an (opinionated) analytics wrapper with specific methods (e.g. sendError(...), sendTimeDelta(...)).
