Check out the demo here. The Keen IO Explorer is an open source point-and-click interface for querying and visualizing your event data. It's maintained by the team at Keen IO.
Read on for instructions on how to use the Explorer on your website or in your web app and how to get set up to develop with the Explorer.

You'd need to include all of the same assets as those listed in the CDN example above. You can download the Explorer source code to get the keen-explorer.js
and keen-explorer.css
files (as well as the minified versions). And you can choose to include jQuery and Bootstrap however you wish, from CDNs or using downloaded copies.
This is as easy as npm install keen-explorer
If you haven’t done so already, login to Keen IO to create a project for your app. You'll need a Keen IO account to create a project. The Project ID and API Keys are available on the Project Overview page. You will need these for the next steps.
Somewhere on the page that you want to show Explorer you'll need to configure a Keen.js client and pass that into the initialization of a new Explorer. Here's how you do it:
<div id="keen-explorer"></div>
<script>
const myExplorer = new KeenExplorer('#keen-explorer')
.client({
projectId: 'PROJECT_ID',
readKey: 'READ_KEY',
masterKey: 'MASTER_KEY'
})
.persistence(true)
.fetch();
</script>
And that's it. You're done!
- Clone our repo
git clone https://github.com/keen/explorer.git
- Configure the Keen.js client in the demo file at test/demo/demo-config.js with your project ID and Keen IO API keys.
- Install the dependencies with
npm install
. - Run the development script with
npm run start
. - You can now view the demo locally at
http://localhost:8080/
or your specified port.
The project is built with Webpack.
- Run
npm run build
from the root directory of the project to build ALL files, including the minified versions for production use.
Run Unit Tests
- Run
npm run test
to run all the tests. Currently there are only unit tests.
Is this open source Keen Explorer different than the one on keen.io? Nope! We have recently moved all our development on the Keen Explorer to this open source version.
I have questions about using the project! Where/who do I ask? If you have any questions about using this project, Explorer feel free to contact us anytime at [email protected].
To contribute to this project:
- Fork the repo.
- Submit a Pull Request with test coverage.
- Follow our PR template, which includes the following sections:
## What does this PR do? How does it affect users?
## How should this be tested?
Step through the code line by line. Things to keep in mind as you review:
- Are there any edge cases not covered by this code?
- Does this code follow conventions (naming, formatting, modularization, etc) where applicable?
Fetch the branch and/or deploy to staging to test the following:
- [ ] Does the code compile without warnings (check shell, console)?
- [ ] Do all tests pass?
- [ ] Does the UI, pixel by pixel, look exactly as expected (check various screen sizes, including mobile)?
- [ ] If the feature makes requests from the browser, inspect them in the Web Inspector. Do they look as expected (parameters, headers, etc)?
- [ ] If the feature sends data to Keen, is the data visible in the project if you run an extraction (include link to collection/query)?
- [ ] If the feature saves data to a database, can you confirm the data is indeed created in the database?
