Steps to Complete

• Find out the exact structure of the idm metrics sent by the SDKs
• Update the Server Side Implementation to accept the idm metrics
• Update/Create the relevant tests

Additional Context

Once the SDK implementation of the idm/self defence metrics is complete, the client payload sent to the server will look like this:

{

  "clientId": "453de743207a0232a339a23e5d64b289",

  "timestamp": "8377194421",

  "data": {

    "app": {

      "id": "com.example.someApp",

      "sdkVersion": "2.4.6",

      "appVersion": "256"

    },

    "device": {

      "platform": "android",

      "platformVersion": "27"

    },

    "idm": {

      .. // idm metrics

    }

  }

}

The entire data field in the payload is saved as a JSONB column in the database, however it is first parsed into a Golang struct in the app metrics service. Any fields not defined in the struct are lost. The Metric struct is defined here: https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-app-metrics/blob/master/pkg/mobile/types.go

The MetricData struct maps to the data field in the payload. This should be updated to look something like:

type MetricData struct {

	App    *AppMetric    `json:"app,omitempty"`

	Device *DeviceMetric `json:"device,omitempty"`

        IDM    *IDMMetric    `json: "idm,omitempty"`

}

Where IDMMetric is a new struct that defines the structure of the IDM metrics sent by the clients
