Matomo: 6. Change the configuration

This documentation is part of the Automate with the CLI guide. You can view the complete guide here: Start Matomo, retrieve its credentials, and modify its configuration programmatically using the Stackhero CLI.

👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero offers a Matomo cloud solution that simplifies web analytics:

• Unlimited websites, members, segments, goals, and data retention: analyse everything you need, for as long as you require.
• Effortless updates: keep your analytics platform up to date with a single click.
• Custom domain name with HTTPS: run Matomo at a secure, branded URL, such as https://analytics.your-company.com.
• High performance and enhanced security: your data is hosted on private, dedicated infrastructure to ensure reliability and confidentiality.

With Stackhero, you can deploy Matomo analytics in just a few minutes and manage all your sites from a single location. Try our Matomo cloud hosting to simplify your analytics and focus on what matters most.

You can review an example configuration schema and then apply your own settings. When you update the configuration, the service may restart to apply the changes.

# View the configuration schema and an example for your service
stackhero service-configuration-example --service=svc-xxxxxx

# Apply a custom configuration (the service restarts if necessary)
stackhero service-configuration-set \
  --service=svc-xxxxxx \
  --configuration='{ "...": "..." }'

# Wait for the new configuration to be applied
stackhero service-wait-for --service=svc-xxxxxx

That is it. You have now seen the full lifecycle: start a service, retrieve its credentials, and reconfigure it, all in a scriptable, automated manner. To explore further, refer to the full CLI documentation, which also covers the non-interactive STACKHERO_TOKEN authentication demonstrated here.
