Matomo (formerly Piwik) is the leading open-source analytics platform that gives you more than just powerful analytics:

• Free open-source software
• 100% data ownership
• User privacy protection
• User-centric insights
• Customisable and extensible

You can run the Matomo container and service like so:

docker run -d --link some-mysql:db matomo

This assumes you've already launched a suitable MySQL or MariaDB database container.

Use a Docker volume to keep persistent data:

docker run -d --link some-mysql:db -v matomo:/var/www/html matomo

Once you're up and running, you'll arrive at the configuration wizard page. If you're using the compose file, at the Database Setup step, please enter the following:

• Database Server: db
• Login: MYSQL_USER
• Password: MYSQL_PASSWORD
• Database Name: MYSQL_DATABASE

And leave the rest as default.

Then you can continue the installation with the super user.

The following environment variables are also honored for configuring your Matomo instance:

• MATOMO_DATABASE_HOST
• MATOMO_DATABASE_ADAPTER
• MATOMO_DATABASE_TABLES_PREFIX
• MATOMO_DATABASE_USERNAME
• MATOMO_DATABASE_PASSWORD
• MATOMO_DATABASE_DBNAME

A minimal set-up using docker-compose is available in the .examples folder, a more complete example can be found at IndieHosters/piwik.

If you want to use the import logs script, you can then run the following container as needed, in order to execute the python import logs script:

docker run --rm --volumes-from="matomo_app_1" --link matomo_app_1 python:2-alpine python /var/www/html/misc/log-analytics/import_logs.py --url=http://ip.of.your.matomo --login=yourlogin --password=yourpassword --idsite=1 --recorders=4 /var/www/html/logs/access.log

Pull requests are very welcome!
