flask-matomo2 is a library which lets you track the requests of your Flask website using Matomo (Piwik).

Forked from LucasHild/flask-matomo.

Installation

pip install flask-matomo2

Using flask-matomo2 in your project

Simply add flask-matomo2 to your dependencies:

# pyproject.toml
dependencies = [
  "flask-matomo2",
]

Using Poetry

poetry add flask-matomo2

Using PDM

pdm add flask-matomo2

Usage

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

app = Flask(__name__)
matomo = Matomo(
    app, 
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5, token_auth="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX")

@app.route("/")
def index():
  return jsonify({"page": "index"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

In the code above:

  1. The Matomo object is created by passing in the Flask application and arguments to configure Matomo.
  2. The matomo_url parameter is the url to your Matomo installation.
  3. The id_site parameter is the id of your site. This is used if you track several websites with one Matomo installation. It can be found if you open your Matomo dashboard, change to site you want to track and look for &idSite= in the url.
  4. The token_auth parameter can be found in the area API in the settings of Matomo. It is required for tracking the ip address.

Adding details to route

You can provide details to a route in 2 ways, first by using the matomo.details decorator:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5, token_auth="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX")
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
@matomo.details(action_name="Foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

Here the Matomo object is created before the Flask object and then calling init_app. Or by giving details to the Matomo constructor:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

app = Flask(__name__)
matomo = Matomo(
  app,
  matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
  id_site=5,
  token_auth="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  routes_details={
    "/foo": {
      "action_name": "Foo"
    }
  }
)

@app.route("/foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

Adjusting the tracked url

If your app is behind a proxy and you don't adjust the url in any other way, you can adjust the tracked url by setting base_url without trailing / in either the constructor:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5,
    base_url="https://mydomain.com/apps")
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
@matomo.details(action_name="Foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

Or a call to activate:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo.activate_later()

matomo.activate(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5, 
    base_url="https://mydomain.com/apps"
)
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
@matomo.details(action_name="Foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

The result is that a request to /foo will be tracked as https://mydomain.com/apps/foo.

Using a custom client

By default, Matomo uses httpx.Client to make the tracking call. You can override this by setting client as long as the client uses the same api as httpx:s Client.

Ignoring a route

You can ignore tracking a route by decorating the route with @matomo.ignore():

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5,
)
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
@matomo.ignore()
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

Or ignore the route in the matomo constructor:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5,
    ignored_routes=["/foo"]
)
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

Ignore routes by patterns

You can also ignore routes by giving a list of regexes to the constructor:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5,
    ignored_patterns=["/fo.*"]
)
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()

Ignore requests by User-Agent patterns

You can supply regex patterns to ignore request based on User-Agent:

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from flask_matomo2 import Matomo

matomo = Matomo(
    matomo_url="https://matomo.mydomain.com",
    id_site=5,
    ignored_ua_patterns=[".*bot.*"]
)
app = Flask(__name__)
matomo.init_app(app)

@app.route("/foo")
def foo():
  return jsonify({"page": "foo"})

if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run()
