import_logs.py extend the list of file extensions to track as "Downloads"

hello

I use the import_logs.py script for import apache2 log files in piwik. Now I want to change the list of file extensions to track as “Downloads”. The file import_logs.py has a variable DOWNLOAD_EXTENSIONS with all file extensions like:


DOWNLOAD_EXTENSIONS = (
    '7z aac arc arj asf asx avi bin csv deb dmg doc exe flv gz gzip hqx '
    'jar mpg mp2 mp3 mp4 mpeg mov movie msi msp odb odf odg odp '
    'ods odt ogg ogv pdf phps ppt qt qtm ra ram rar rpm sea sit tar tbz '
    'bz2 tbz tgz torrent txt wav wma wmv wpd xls xml z zip'
).split()

Can I extends this list without get problems by the next update of piwik? Exists a other proper way to extend this list?

which extension would you like to add?

hello matt

I will add the xml schema file extention: xsd

Added in Adding .xsd extension to file list, suggested in forum http://forum.p… · matomo-org/matomo@582f38f · GitHub

I was wondering on why the files with extensions listed in DOWNLOAD_EXTENSIONS do not show up under Actions > Downloads? Is there something additional I have to add when running the import script?

Thanks!

have you set --enable-static ?

It should work and they should appear in downloads.

yes, this is the line i am using

python /var/www/piwik/misc/log-analytics/import_logs.py --url=http://mypiwiksite.com /var/www/html/sitename/www/logs/access.old --idsite=4 --recorders=2 --enable-http-errors --enable-http-redirects --enable-static

can you post a short log file that can be used to reproduce the issue ? (eg. one or two lines that are not imported and you expected them to be)

just changed the folder and file names (not extension), but everything else is the same.

Thank you for the report! I could reproduce it, and have created a ticket in our issue tracker: Importing a log file with only PDF files does not import data · Issue #5286 · matomo-org/matomo · GitHub
