Hi all
PIWIK is a web analytics service. http://piwik.org/
A year ago I had to develop a PIWIK filter tracking GeoServer requests. (The EU wants some statistical data concerning INSPIRE). The filter itself works completely asynchronously and bundles many GeoServer requests into one PIWIK request, no performance penalty.
PIWIK itself works asynchronously, I know this because it is not possible to write reliable online tests. Unfortunately, it is cumbersome to modify the GeoServer web.xml file after each new installation.
Is there an interest to add such functionality into GeoServer ?
Additionally, I know about the requirement to integrate a payment service, perhaps a design to inject servlet filters form the Spring context would be an idea.
Opinions ?

Injecting filters from spring can already be done. Look at
org.geoserver.filters.SpringDelegatingFilter.
As for integration with PIWIK I would suggest looking at the monitor
extension that already aggregates info about a request and has a pluggable
backend. So you could write a plugin to talk to PIWIK.
Opinions ?

Thanks for the hints, I will investigate.
