Python wrapper for the Matomo (formerly Piwik) API

A simple, pythonic wrapper around Matomo's API:

from matomo_api import Matomo

m = Matomo('https://demo.matomo.org', idSite=7)
statistics = m.VisitsSummary.getVisits(period='day', date='last10')

for date, visits in statistics.items():
    print('{} visitors on {}'.format(visits, date))

Installation

This package requires Python 3.4 or later.

pip install git+https://github.com/stadt-karlsruhe/matomo-api.git

Usage

First create an instance of matomo_api.Matomo:

from matomo_api import Matomo

m = Matomo('https://my-matomo-instance.com')

You can then call any Matomo API function via m. For example, to get the number of visitors to a site over the last 10 days via the VisitsSummary.getVisits function:

visitors = m.VisitsSummary.getVisits(idSite=1, period='day', date='last10')

Results are returned as JSON. If the Matomo API returns an error then a matomo_api.MatomoException is raised.

Parameters can also be set directly on the Matomo instance, they are then used for all following API calls. This is especially handy for idSite (when working with a single site) and token_auth (when targeting a private instance):

m = Matomo('https://my-matomo-instance.com', idSite=3, token_auth='XYZ')
visitors = m.VisitsSummary.getVisits(period='day', date='last10')
