Extension:EventLogging - MediaWiki

The EventLogging extension makes it possible to collect structured data on how users interact with MediaWiki sites.

EventLogging supports client-side logging from JavaScript and server-side logging from PHP.
Logging behavior can be dynamically configured using Extension:EventStreamConfig .
The events are JSON objects defined by versioned JSONSchemas stored in a schema git repository.
The extension does not include any back-end code for transporting, parsing, or loading these events. A separate service, EventGate, implements this functionality and deals with inserting events into Kafka. Events are then persisted in downstream datastores (e.g. Hive) via various ingestion pipelines. The details of these components are specific to Wikimedia Foundation's configuration.

The Wikimedia Foundation uses the EventLogging extension as part of a broader system for collecting, aggregating, storing, and analyzing user data within the limits set out by our privacy policy and data retention guidelines.

This page is about general use of the EventLogging extension. The Wikimedia Foundation uses EventLogging with WMF specific backend components and schema repositories. For Wikimedia specific and maintained documentation, see wikitech:Analytics/Systems/EventLogging and wikitech:Event Platform.

Download and move the extracted EventLogging folder to your extensions/ directory.
Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:
```
cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/EventLogging
```

Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

wfLoadExtension( 'EventLogging' );
$wgEventLoggingBaseUri = '/beacon/event';
$wgEventLoggingServiceUri = '/beacon/intake-analytics';
$wgEventLoggingStreamNames = false;

Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Vagrant installation:

If using Vagrant , install with vagrant roles enable eventlogging --provision

Configuring the schema location[edit]

By default, the extension will look for schemas on Meta-Wiki. The relevant default settings are:

# (default) $wgEventLoggingSchemaApiUri = 'https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/api.php';
# (default) $wgEventLoggingDBname = 'metawiki';

To use local schemas, or schemas from the central wiki of your own wikifarm, you need to override these. E.g. to use the Schema namespace of the local wiki, set

$wgEventLoggingSchemaApiUri = $wgServer . '/w/api.php';
$wgEventLoggingDBname = $wgDBname;

(and ensure the user account that will create the schemas is autoconfirmed).

Logging events using EventLogging[edit]

Extension:EventLogging/Programming - tips and suggestions for developers writing code to log events

Developing the EventLogging extension[edit]

As a developer, you will want to set up and use EventLogging on your development wiki to simulate its use in production.

See MediaWiki-Docker/Configuration recipes/EventLogging

Using mediawiki-vagrant[edit]

If you develop using mediawiki-vagrant, everything you need is encapsulated in the eventlogging role. To enable it, run:

$ vagrant roles enable eventlogging
$ vagrant provision

For JavaScript development[edit]

If working on the JavaScript client, you'll need to install dependencies with npm install from the folder you're developing in. Then you can use npm test to run ESLint for example. The "How to run tests" section below points out how to see JavaScript test results.

When adding the parameter trackdebug=true to the URL, the console in the browser's devtools will show the event logging being triggered.

There are PHP tests, Python tests, and JavaScript tests.

To run JavaScript tests, visit Special:JavaScriptTest/qunit on your development wiki. (See Manual:JavaScript unit testing .)

To run PHP tests, we use PHPUnit. Make sure it is installed, then:

$ vagrant ssh
vagrant@mediawiki-vagrant:/vagrant/mediawiki$ composer phpunit:entrypoint -- extensions/EventLogging/testsEventLoggingExtensionFunctionsTest.php

This extension is being used on one or more Wikimedia projects. This probably means that the extension is stable and works well enough to be used by such high-traffic websites. Look for this extension's name in Wikimedia's CommonSettings.php and InitialiseSettings.php configuration files to see where it's installed. A full list of the extensions installed on a particular wiki can be seen on the wiki's Special:Version page. This extension is included in the following wiki farms/hosts and/or packages: This is not an authoritative list. Some wiki farms/hosts and/or packages may contain this extension even if they are not listed here. Always check with your wiki farms/hosts or bundle to confirm.
