Function as a gaPlugin option

Some plugins for Google Analytics allow you to specify a function to override certain functionality. Unfortunalty Gatsby calls JSON.stringify on plugin options before passing them into the plugin. This plugin uses special syntax to work around that limitation and pass a function to the Google Analytics plugin.

See the example for eventTracker and we will replicate the plugin options below.

module.exports = {
  // ...
  gaPlugins: {
    config: [
      {
        name: 'eventTracker',
        options: {
          events: [ 'click', 'auxclick', 'contextmenu' ],
          // Key here is specifying an array with a special key
          hitFilter: [
            '@@/ga-function',
            [ 'model', 'element', 'event', `model.set('eventAction', event.type, true)` ],
          ],
        },
      },
    ],
  },
}

In order to transform a key to a function, we specify it as an array. The first item must be @@/ga-function, with the second item being arguments to the Function constructor. All of the items in the array minus the last item, will be the arguments of the function. The last item in the array will be the function body.
