DESCRIPTION

Installs piwik using nginx and php-fastcgi either on a single server or on a cluster of server for high traffic sites.

REQUIREMENTS

Cookbooks

  • mysql-client (to enable piwik to connect to it's MySQL server)
  • runit (for managing nginx and php-fastcgi)
  • nginx (the web server)
  • iptables (for locking down the piwik machine)
  • logrotate (for rotating nginx log files)

Platform

Debian or Ubuntu though may work where 'build-essential' works, but other platforms are untested.

ATTRIBUTES

All node attributes are set under the piwik namespace.

  • version - The piwik version to install (e.g. 1.5.1). It will upgrade the installation, if you change that value later

  • install_path - The path where the web server will expect the piwik dir to live

  • php_fcgi_memory_limit - The memory limit for PHP

  • php_fcgi_children - The number of concurrent PHP processes

  • php_fcgi_max_requests - Kill each PHP process after it served the given amount of requests to avoid memory bloat

  • php_fcgi_bind_path - The URL or socket to let nginx talk to PHP (for fastcgi's config)

  • php_fcgi_pass - The URL or socket to let nginx talk to PHP (for nginx's config)

The following attributes are only used by the 'piwik::slave' recipe to connect it to an existing piwik installation

  • config - superuser - login - The username of the piwik superuser
  • config - superuser - password - The MD5 hash of the password of the piwik superuser
  • config - superuser - email - The email address of the piwik superuser
  • config - superuser - salt - The salt generated by piwik on installation
  • config - database - host - The database server, where the piwik DB lives
  • config - database - port - The port of the database
  • config - database - username - The username to connect to the database
  • config - database - password - The database password
  • config - database - dbname - The name of the database with the existing piwik installation
  • config - database - adapter - The PHP database adapter to be used
  • config - database - tables_prefix - The prefix of the existing piwik tables
  • config - database - charset - The charset of the existing piwik tables

USAGE

For low traffic sites

Just add 'recipe[piwik]' to your node's run list. This will download and install piwik on the host. It will ask you for
superuser and database connection params when you first hit /index.php on your new piwik server.

For high traffic sites

If you run a medium to high traffic site (> 100.000 visits/day) you should use the 'piwik::master' and 'piwik::slave'
recipes. The 'piwik::master' will install piwik on the host using the default recipe. You'll need to do the manual
piwik configuration hitting /index.php as described above.

Additionally the 'piwik::master' recipe will install an hourly cron job to run the piwik archive.sh script to
pre-calculate reports. You should disable report generation on hitting the frontend in the piwik settings.

If you want to setup a cluster of piwik tracking servers, all connected to the very same piwik DB, you can setup
additional tracking servers using the 'piwik::slave' recipe. To be able to use it, go to your (manually configured)
master and take all required values from piwik/config/config.ini.php and overwrite the attributes of the piwik
cookbook with those values. Then a new server using the 'piwik::slave'recipe will automatically connect to the existing
piwik installation. You can now use a load balancer to distribute tracking requests to all of your piwik servers.
