collective.piwik.mediaelement 0.2

Analytics support for media elements in Plone using Piwik & MediaElement.js

Introduction

collective.piwik.mediaelement displays a video play counter for Plone sites that use collective.mediaelementjs (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/collective.mediaelementjs). A download counter is displayed when used in combination with collective.transcode.star (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/collective.transcode.star) or Plumi (http://plumi.org).

Usage data is stored and retrieved by Piwik (http://piwik.org), an open source analytics platform.

How to get it working

• Install collective.piwik.core and collective.mediaelementjs from the Plone control panel.

• You need to have access to a working Piwik installation. Create a new site in the Piwik admin UI and a new user who should have view access for that site.

• Go to the Piwik Settings page in the Plone control panel and enter the URL of your Piwik instance, the siteId and the user’s authentication token

• Upload a video that can be played by mediaelementjs and click play

If you do the above a viewlet should appear on top of mediaelementjs displaying the number of views of each video.
