GoAccess for DreamHost

======================

An easy to setup packaging of [GoAccess](https://goaccess.io) for use on [DreamHost](https://www.dreamhost.com) web-hosting

services (shared servers and VPS).

Features:

- Automatically lists active web sites.

- Generate GoAccess reports based on current logs.

- Generate Reports for single or multiple sites.

- Entirely written in Bash CGI!

Notes:

- Reports use the avaiable raw logs, which DH default to 3 days. Sites can be configured to keep up to 30 days of raw logs in the [Site Statistics Panel](https://panel.dreamhost.com/index.cgi?tree=advanced.stats&).

- Reports are generated on the fly, so expect ~35 seconds of processing time per million requests.

Installation

------------

GoAccess-DH can be installed anywhere on a web site. It comes with a pre-built binary of GoAccess (see below for building from scratch).

- **Quick Install**

  

  Log in to a site's shell user (e.g. `ssh [email protected]`) and clone GoAccess-DH into the site's web directory. For example:

  

  ```

  git clone https://github.com/chuckhoupt/goaccess-dh.git ~/example.com/goaccess-dh

  ```

  

  Now visit `example.com/goaccess-dh/` to see stats for all the sites hosted under that shell user.

Further Configuration

---------------------

- **Secure Reports**

   Setup password protection for the `goaccess-dh` directory via

   [DH's Htaccess Panel](https://panel.dreamhost.com/index.cgi?tree=advanced.webdav&).

- **Build from Source**

  If you'd prefer to build your own binary, run Make to configure and compile GoAccess:

   

  ```

  make -C ~/example.com/goaccess-dh/bin

  ```
