This is a simple setup of Piwik and a few plugins, suitable for running on dokku.
Piwik Version: 3+
Composer config and other things borrowed from creativecoder/piwik-heroku.
Install script from nebev/piwik-cli-setup.
Install MariaDB, create the app, and its DB:
# on your server
$ dokku apps:create piwik
$ dokku plugin:install https://github.com/dokku/dokku-mariadb.git mariadb
$ dokku mariadb:create piwikdb
$ dokku mariadb:link piwikdb piwik
Before deploying, update the config settings for your app:
# on your server
$ dokku config:set piwik \
USERNAME='user' \
USER_PASSWORD='pass' \
USER_EMAIL='me@me.com' \
SITE_NAME='My Company' \
SITE_URL='https://mycompany.com' \
BASE_DOMAIN='piwik.mycompany.com'
Now push Piwik:
# on your local box
$ git clone git@github.com:rebolyte/dokku-piwik.git
$ cd dokku-piwik
$ git remote add dokku dokku@yourserver.me:piwik
$ git push dokku master
Start the archiver process (this step is only needed once):
# on your server
$ dokku ps:scale piwik archive=1
Now visit the URL you deployed to! Note that if you are getting a problem with JavaScript bundles loading correctly, it could be a DNS issue that hasn't resolved yet or it could be the browser or an extension blocking anything with "piwik" in the domain name.
Note that some settings made from the Piwik web UI (e.g. changing plugins) won't persist between launches unless you add those changes to this repository as well.
The Procfile includes a process responsible for running the core:archive task. It's set to run every 3600 seconds by default, but this interval can be changed using the env var ARCHIVE_INTERVAL.
You can use composer to install additional plugins. See https://github.com/composer/installers and the examples in composer.json.
This is optional but recommended, so that your connection to your Piwik admin is secure and you can access the Piwik tracker JS over HTTPS. Install the letsencrypt plugin:
sudo dokku plugin:install https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt.git
Set the config:
dokku config:set --no-restart piwik DOKKU_LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=YOUREMAIL@WHATEVER
Generate the SSL certificate:
dokku letsencrypt piwik
Enable the letsencrypt job:
dokku letsencrypt:cron-job --add
MIT
