GoogleAnalyticsImporter plugin support in windows

Hi,

Is there anyone who has used the [Google Analytics Import] plugin in matomo installed on Windows? I was just wondering if matomo, based on windows, supports using Google Analytic plugin?

Thanks!

Should be no problem.

It probably won’t work out of the box. See here:

But adapting it to also work on Windows shouldn’t be a lot of work.

Thanks for the reply.

The question is why you don’t find anything about the platform in the requirements. https://matomo.org/docs/google-analytics-importer/#requirements

Hi,

This should now work with

in the latest release.

Hi Lukas,

Thanks for the action.

Now I updated the files RequiredExecutablesCheck.php and Tasks.php with the new ones from Github, and the problem with the nohup was solved now Well done!

But this problem still remains.

[GoogleAnalyticsImporter] Required Executables (php)

Do you have any idea how this problem coluld be solved? Is it still related to GA importer or to something else like php installation?

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

The plugin uses the same code for finding a php binary as the rest of Matomo.

github.com

matomo-org/plugin-GoogleAnalyticsImporter/blob/eb7f980210e52b7565eb7865e760520e07b4528f/Diagnostic/RequiredExecutablesCheck.php#L40-L49


$cliPhp = new CliPhp();
$phpBinary = $cliPhp->findPhpBinary();

$label = $baseLabel . ' (php)';
if (empty($phpBinary)) {
    $explanation = $this->translator->translate('GoogleAnalyticsImporter_PhpExecutableMissing');
    $results[] = DiagnosticResult::singleResult($label, DiagnosticResult::STATUS_ERROR, $explanation);
} else {
    $results[] = DiagnosticResult::singleResult($label, DiagnosticResult::STATUS_OK);
}

I am not too familiar with Windows, but is your php binary in PATH? (so if you execute php -v in some terminal window, does it execute your php binary?)
