R client library to access the Matomo web service API

Description

The package provides client access to the web service API of the web analytics platform Matomo.

Installation Prerequisites

Windows

You need to install git to be able to access the development version of matomor.

Linux

matomor uses some R packages with system dependencies you might need to install first:

#### Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt install r-base-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libxml2-dev libsodium-dev libgit2-dev

#### Fedora / CentOS >= 8 / RHEL >= 8
sudo dnf install R-devel libcurl-devel openssl-devel libxml2-devel libsodium-devel libgit2-devel

#### CentOS < 8 / RHEL < 8
sudo yum install R-devel libcurl-devel openssl-devel libxml2-devel libsodium-devel libgit2-devel

#### Arch Linux
pacman -S base-devel gcc-fortran libsodium curl libgit2

Installation

library(devtools)
install_git("https://korap.ids-mannheim.de/gerrit/IDS-Mannheim/matomor")

Documentation

See matomo Reporting API Reference for details.

NOTE: Currently, the date column in the data frame results refers to the first day of the respective period.

Usage

getVisitsSummary(
  matomoUrl,
  siteId,
  period = "month",
  date = "last16",
  filter_limit = 100,
  removeFirst = FALSE,
  removeLast = FALSE,
  accessToken = getAccessToken(matomoUrl)
)

Arguments

Argument	Description
matomoUrl	base URL of your matomo instance
siteId	matomo site id or vector of site ids
period	day, week, month or year
date	date range (see matomo API reference)
filter_limit	defines the maximum number of rows to be returned
removeFirst	logical that determines whether the first row of each site should be removed (to account for incomplete periods)
removeLast	logical that determines whether the last row of each site should be removed (to account for incomplete periods)
accessToken	API Authentication Token - you can get this in your matomo interface under Settings -> Personal -> Settings -> API Authentication Token and pass it here, or you can make it persistent with persistAccessToken.

Examples

ggplot

library(matomor)
library(tidyverse)
library(idsThemeR)

# persistAccessToken("https://stats.xxx.org/", "ad7609a669179c4ebca7c995342f7e09")

getVisitsSummary("https://stats.xxx.org/", siteId = c(8,14), period="day", date="last60") %>%
     mutate(service = case_when(site_id == 8 ~ "A", site_id == 14 ~ "B")) %>%
     ggplot(aes(date, nb_visits, color=service)) + 
     scale_color_ids() + theme_ids() +
     geom_smooth(span=.3, se=FALSE)

highcharter

library(matomor)
library(tidyverse)
library(highcharter)
library(idsThemeR)

# persistAccessToken("https://stats.xxx.org/", "ad7609a669179c4ebca7c995342f7e09")

  mutate(service = case_when(site_id == 13 ~ "A", site_id == 14 ~ "B")) %>%
  hchart("spline", hcaes(date, nb_actions, group=service)) %>%
  hc_add_theme(hc_theme_ids_light())
