umami

Umami is a simple, fast, website analytics alternative to Google Analytics.

Getting started

A detailed getting started guide can be found at https://umami.is/docs/

Installation

Requirements

• A server with Node.js 10.13 or newer
• A database (MySQL or Postgresql)

Get the source code

git clone https://github.com/mikecao/umami.git

Go into the repo folder

cd umami

Install packages

npm install

Create database tables

Umami supports MySQL and Postgresql. Create a database for your Umami installation and install the tables with the included scripts.

For MySQL:

mysql -u username -p databasename < sql/schema.mysql.sql

For Postgresql:

psql -h hostname -U username -d databasename -f sql/schema.postgresql.sql

This will also create a login account with username admin and password umami.

Configure umami

Create an .env file with the following

DATABASE_URL=(connection url)
HASH_SALT=(any random string)

The connection url is in the following format:

postgresql://username:mypassword@localhost:5432/mydb

mysql://username:mypassword@localhost:3306/mydb

The HASH_SALT is used to generate unique values for your installation.

Generate database client

Depending on your database type, run the appropriate script.

For MySQL:

npm run build-mysql-client

For Postgresql:

npm run build-postgresql-client

Create a production build

npm run build

Start the application

npm start

By default this will launch the application on http://localhost:3000. You will need to either proxy requests from your web server or change the port to serve the application directly.
