Drupal

The Drupal integration relies on a contributed module called "PartyTown", which can either be installed manually, or by using composer.

Install

Using Composer

1. Use composer to download the Drupal module

composer require drupal/partytown

2. Add the following code to your composer.json in the repositories section

 
partytown": {
    "type": "package",
    "package": {
        "name": "quikdev/partytown",
        "version": "0.11.0",
        "type": "drupal-library",
        "dist": {
            "url": "https://registry.npmjs.org/@qwik.dev/partytown/-/partytown-0.11.0.tgz",
            "type": "tar"
        },
        "license": "MIT"
    }
}
 

3. Install the PartyTown JS library

composer require quikdev/partytown

Using The Composer Merge Plugin

1. Use composer to download the Drupal module

composer require drupal/partytown

2. If not already installed, install Merge Plugin:

composer require wikimedia/composer-merge-plugin

3. Merge the PartyTown library from the module's composer.json:

composer config extra.merge-plugin.include --json '[ "web/modules/contrib/partytown/composer.libraries.json" ]'

Manually

Note: this method does not install the PartyTown JS library for you and may be a little more difficult to manage. However, it is provided as a fallback because some Drupal web sites are not managed using composer but may still benefit from this module. You will need to refer to the HTML integration instructions or that of your favorite JS framework in order to make use of these instructions. In this context, the Drupal module will simply act as a GUI for managing your integration settings. Furthermore, you will need to configure the "Lib Path" setting in the Drupal module to point at your installation location.

1. Download and unzip the Drupal module from the PartyTown release page

2. Install the partytown module in the Drupal modules directory (usually <webroot>/modules or <webroot>/modules/contrib)

3. Visit the Admin > Extend page of your Drupal installation and enable the PartyTown module

4. Install the PartyTown JS library in whatever method you deem appropriate

5. Ensure that the "Lib Path" setting points to your PartyTown installation location

Note: Because the Drupal module and PartyTown integration in this method are essentially de-coupled, you will need to ensure that the PartyTown JS library loads after the module-provided partytown/config library. This ensures that PartyTown can use the settings you set in the Drupal admin. You also may need to implement a Drupal hook that prevents the default partytown/lib library from being loaded by Drupal.

Configure

All configuration for the PartyTown module takes place in the Drupal admin interface. You can manage most of the PartyTown API settings graphically at /admin/config/development/partytown.

Managing Scripts With PartyTown

Google Tag Manager

The PartyTown module for Drupal comes with a submodule called "PartyTown Google Tag" for PartyTown-ing Google Tag Manager. Once installed, you will probably want to configure the PartyTown module to forward dataLayer.push.

Other scripts

Other scripts can be PartyTown-ed by setting the type to be text\partytown. Using a *.libraries.yml this can be achieved with something similar to:

foo:
  js:
    js/foo.js: { attributes: { type: "text/partytown"} }
