Add API for setting user, default to pulling from request

[hlo2109]

Hello, I would like to add the user id based on a url but I don't see how to do it.

if ($project) {
$ userId = $ project-> user_id;
}

Hi @hlo2109

The package doesn't provide an API for that right now. The only way around it is to either:

• Change $request->user() to return the user you want (but this may effect other areas of your application)
• Add a event listener to the Analytics model and change the user_id property before the model is saved

See this line for how the user is set currently: https://github.com/ohseesoftware/laravel-server-analytics/blob/master/src/LaravelServerAnalytics.php#L240
