I'm on Nuxt.js 2.13 and I want to use Google tags in my project.

But there are several things that are not clear to me!

First: there are two packages by pi0 in Nuxt.js community, @nuxtjs/gtm and @nuxtjs/google-gtag. Which one should I use?

Second: How can I use dataLayer.push({'varName':'value'}) with these packages? As in their documentation they only instructed about push('event').

gtag.js google-tag-manager nuxt.js

About the first point:

As explained in the release notes:

This is a major rewrite of @nuxtjs/google-tag-manager after 3 years of contributions and feedback from users.

About the second point, you have to use the $gtm.push method to make your push event or data.

For example, in your pages/index.vue file:

<script>
export default {
  middleware ({ $gtm }) {
    $gtm.push({ 'varName': 'value' })
  }
}
</script>

See another full example with configuration at https://github.com/nuxt-community/gtm-module/tree/master/example.
