Usage

Parse the cookies (currently supports utma and utmz):, _(*6)

<?php

use Jflight\GACookie\GACookie;

$utma = GACookie::parse('utma');
$utmz = GACookie::parse('utmz');

Or directly parse strings:, _(*7)

<?php

$utma = GACookie::parseString('utma', '177910838.254655113.1474876189.1482142331.1482148790.58');
$utmz = GACookie::parseString('utmz', '177910838.1481550491.52.15.utmcsr=newsletter|utmccn=campaign-2016|utmcmd=email');

You can now access cookie variables:, _(*8)

For utma, _(*9)

<?php

$utma->time_of_first_visit; // DateTime
$utma->time_of_last_visit; // DateTime
$utma->time_of_current_visit; // DateTime
$utma->session_count // Integer

For utmz, _(*10)

<?php

$utmz->timestamp; // DateTime
$utmz->session_count // Integer
$utmz->campaign_number // Integer
$utmz->source // string
$utmz->medium // string
$utmz->campaign // string
$utmz->term // string
$utmz->content // string

Because all time related properites return DateTime objects, this sort of thing is possible:, _(*11)

<?php

echo $utma->time_of_first_visit->format('Y'); // e.g. 2014

Also if you are so inclined, properties can be accessed via ArrayAccess:, _(*12)

<?php

echo $utmz['source']; // e.g. google
