<title>Piwik</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Piwik is a real-time web analytics application.
|
|
This module configures php-fpm as backend for piwik, optionally configuring an nginx vhost as well.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
An automatic setup is not suported by piwik, so you need to configure piwik itself in the browser-based piwik setup.

<title>Database Setup</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
You also need to configure a MariaDB or MySQL database and -user for piwik yourself,
|
|
and enter those credentials in your browser.
|
|
You can use passwordless database authentication via the UNIX_SOCKET authentication plugin
|
|
with the following SQL commands:
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
# For MariaDB
|
|
INSTALL PLUGIN unix_socket SONAME 'auth_socket';
|
|
CREATE DATABASE piwik;
|
|
CREATE USER 'piwik'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH unix_socket;
|
|
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON piwik.* TO 'piwik'@'localhost';
|
|
|
|
# For MySQL
|
|
INSTALL PLUGIN auth_socket SONAME 'auth_socket.so';
|
|
CREATE DATABASE piwik;
|
|
CREATE USER 'piwik'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH auth_socket;
|
|
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON piwik.* TO 'piwik'@'localhost';
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
Then fill in <literal>piwik</literal> as database user and database name, and leave the password field blank.
|
|
This authentication works by allowing only the <literal>piwik</literal> unix user to authenticate as the
|
|
<literal>piwik</literal> database user (without needing a password), but no other users.
|
|
For more information on passwordless login, see
|
|
<link xlink:href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/unix_socket-authentication-plugin/" />.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Of course, you can use password based authentication as well, e.g. when the database is not on the same host.

<title>Backup</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
You only need to take backups of your MySQL database and the
|
|
<filename>/var/lib/piwik/config/config.ini.php</filename> file.
|
|
Use a user in the <literal>piwik</literal> group or root to access the file.
|
|

Piwik's file integrity check will warn you.
|
|
This is due to the patches necessary for NixOS, you can safely ignore this.

Piwik will warn you that the JavaScript tracker is not writable.
|
|
This is because it's located in the read-only nix store.
|
|
You can safely ignore this, unless you need a plugin that needs JavaScript tracker access.

<title>Using other Web Servers than nginx</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
You can use other web servers by forwarding calls for <filename>index.php</filename> and
|
|
<filename>piwik.php</filename> to the <literal>/run/phpfpm-piwik.sock</literal> fastcgi unix socket.
|
|
You can use the nginx configuration in the module code as a reference to what else should be configured.
