MokonyxInsight: Installation & Setup
- Details
- Category: Getting Started
- Applicable Software: MokonyxInsight
- Min Version Number: 01.00.00
- Max Version Number: Not Applicable
MokonyxInsight installs like any Joomla package — but it ships several plugins, and its engine must be enabled for anything to work.
Install the package
- In Joomla admin, go to System → Install → Extensions.
- Upload the
pkg_mokonyxinsightpackage (or install from the update server URL). - Wait for the "Installation successful" message. The component, modules and plugins install together.
Enable the engine (required)
Insight's metrics, data sources, dashboards and REST API are powered by the System - MokonyxInsight plugin. Enable it, or the console will show an "engine is turned off" notice and no data will load:
- Go to System → Manage → Plugins and search MokonyxInsight.
- Enable System - MokonyxInsight (the engine), and also Task - MokonyxInsight (scheduler) and Web Services - MokonyxInsight (REST API).
Next
Open Components → MokonyxInsight to run the first-run setup wizard, then connect your first data source.

Once MokonyxInsight is installed and its engine plugin is enabled, this is the quickest path to a working dashboard.
1. Run the setup wizard
Open Components → MokonyxInsight. On first run you're guided through a short setup wizard; you can re-run it any time from the component.
2. Connect a data source
Go to Insight → Data Sources → New, choose a provider type (e.g. Google Analytics 4, Matomo, SQL), fill in its settings, paste any API key into the secret field, and click Test. A green result means its metrics are now in the catalog.
3. Build a dashboard
Go to Insight → Dashboards → New, add widgets, and pick a metric for each from the live catalog. Choose a visualization (counter, line, bar, pie, gauge, table) and save. Use the time-range picker and auto-refresh to keep it live.
Next
Explore the Guides for per-source setup, custom reports, alerts and multi-site monitoring.

Getting Started with the Prometheus Data Source
- Details
- Category: Getting Started
- Applicable Software: MokonyxInsight
- Min Version Number: 01.00.07
- Max Version Number: Not Applicable
The Prometheus data source lets Mokonyx Insight read live infrastructure metrics from a Prometheus endpoint and chart them on your dashboards alongside your business KPIs. It is read-only — the plugin only issues Prometheus query requests and never writes.
