tellery VS GoAccess

please take a look at tellery https://tellery.io/ this can be a great project , but it is stuck in 200 likes for a while now and i wanted to give it some love from the self-hosted community.

In short, we create this project to bring data exploration, analytical narratives and collaboration into one place.

Open-sourced at: https://github.com/tellery/tellery

If one wants server-side metrics with a little more info than the author's "hacky little script", there's always goaccess [1], which functions in broadly the same way. I even use it with Firebase Hosting-hosted sites via [2] (which I wrote).

> Just use GoAcces for fuck's sake.

GoAccess seems pretty cool and is probably a good task for the job, when you need something simple, thanks for recommending it: https://goaccess.io/

Even if you have analytics of some sort already in place, I think it'd probably still be a nice idea to run GoAccess on your server, behind some additional auth, so you can check up on how the web servers are performing.

That said, I'd still say that the analytics solutions out there, especially self-hostable ones like Matomo, are quite nice and can have both UIs that are very easy to interact with for the average person (e.g. filtering data by date range, or by page/view that was interacted with), as well as have a plethora of different datasets: https://matomo.org/features/

I think it can be useful to have a look at what sorts of devices are mostly being used to interact with your site, what operating systems and browsers are in use, how people navigate through the site, where do they enter the site from and how they find it, what the front end performance is like, or even how your e-commerce site is doing, at a glance, in addition to seeing how this changes over time.

People have also said good things about Plausible Analytics as well: https://plausible.io/

Maybe, if it's just local and need just information, maybe https://goaccess.io is an option.

I run goaccess on a cron job and have paired it with a MaxMind GeoIP database so that you can see where people are coming from etc.

There is small programm for linux https://goaccess.io/

I heard about https://goaccess.io/ (and even tested it) but first, nothing about tracing logs, and I think that the provided HTML dashboard isn't enough security-oriented for me but it's more about monitoring your customer volume... It does -partially- fit my case.

Loved AWStats! Still can be useful — but bots, client side caching, CDNs, and did I mention bots..? have made the data hard to rely on for much. A while ago I switched from AWStats to GoAccess (https://goaccess.io/) for this kind of thing. I prefer its interface, and it's way way faster to churn through big log files (C vs. Perl).

matomo and goatcounter are nice, but there are even solutions which don't need any extra CPU or any extra client request:

• https://goaccess.io/

• https://www.awstats.org/

Both of them are free/open-source.

GoAccess is a powerful web log analyzer that generates real-time web traffic statistics.
