Plugin not working for me

[tldev-de]

Hey there,

thanks for this nice plugin! I love the idea to track activity server-side right in traefik with umami :)

I installed the plugin using cli parameters:

      - "--experimental.plugins.traefik-umami-plugin.modulename=github.com/1cedsoda/traefik-umami-plugin"
      - "--experimental.plugins.traefik-umami-plugin.version=v1.0.3"

Unfortunately I can't get it to work! This if my configuration:

    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.xyz.rule=(Host(`xyz.blog`) || Host(`www.xyz.blog`))"
      - "traefik.http.routers.xyz.tls=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.xyz.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt"
      - "traefik.http.routers.xyz.middlewares=xyz_tracking"
      - "traefik.http.services.xyz.loadbalancer.server.port=2368"
      - "traefik.http.middlewares.xyz_tracking.plugin.traefik-umami-plugin.umamiHost=umami:3000"
      - "traefik.http.middlewares.xyz_tracking.plugin.traefik-umami-plugin.websiteId=57529274-67e8-47b9-a9e1-a9fc0b811xyz"
      #- "traefik.http.middlewares.xyz_tracking.plugin.traefik-umami-plugin.serverSideTracking=true"
      #- "traefik.http.middlewares.xyz_tracking.plugin.traefik-umami-plugin.serverSideTrackingMode=notinjected"

It's not working with all four middleware parameters as well as the first two (umamiHost + websiteId).

My traefik logs show only these lines:

time="2024-07-09T13:03:30Z" level=info msg="[traefik-umami-plugin] config: {"forwardPath":"_umami","umamiHost":"umami:3000","websiteId":"57529274-67e8-47b9-a9e1-a9fc0b811671","autoTrack":true,"doNotTrack":false,"cache":false,"domains":[],"evadeGoogleTagManager":false,"scriptInjection":true,"scriptInjectionMode":"tag","serverSideTracking":false,"serverSideTrackingMode":"all"}"
time="2024-07-09T13:03:30Z" level=info msg="[traefik-umami-plugin] script: <script async defer data-host-url='/_umami' src='/_umami/script.js' data-website-id='57529274-67e8-47b9-a9e1-a9fc0b811671' data-auto-track='true'></script>"

but:

• there is no script tag inserted into the html
• there is no activity in umami visible (0 views, 0 visitors, ...)

best regards

Hey @tldev-de!

I have a identical setup to yours and had exactly the same problem. The problem is that the umamiHost configuration is not actually hostname but a url. It should be in your case http://umami:3000.

This should be fixed either in code to include the protocol or by changing the documentation to correspond to what the value should actually be.

@uuksu I just tried it, but it's not working 🤔 Can you show me some details about your working example?

@tldev-de

Interesting parts from my configuration are this in static configuration:

- "--experimental.plugins.traefik-umami-plugin.moduleName=github.com/1cedsoda/traefik-umami-plugin"
- "--experimental.plugins.traefik-umami-plugin.version=v1.0.3"

and this in dynamic configuration

- "traefik.http.middlewares.umami-middleware.plugin.traefik-umami-plugin.umamiHost=http://umami:3000"
- "traefik.http.middlewares.umami-middleware.plugin.traefik-umami-plugin.websiteId=a904b409-c760-4108-9ae9-85d6e7fb388d"

With this configuration I got the injection working. I also noticed that browser might cache version where the injection has not been made, so ctrl+F5 is your friend.

I'm sorry, but I can't help you more, because I decided to not use the plugin as it's too broken for production use. I wish it would work better as the idea is so good.
