Configuring Geolocation Based Statistics

Follow the procedure below in order to configure WSO2 API Manager to receive geolocation based alerts.

1. Download the Geolocation data from here.
2. Unzip the file you downloaded.

3. Create the database by executing one of the scripts in the Geolocation Data/dbscripts directory. In this example, mysql.sql is executed.
   

   This can be done using the MySQL Workbench.

   For detailed instructions to run the database script, see MySQL Documentation - The Workbench Scripting Shell.

4. Restore data to the BLOCKS and LOCATION tables by importing data from the following files.

   • Geolocation Data/data/BLOCKS.csv
   • Geolocation Data/data/LOCATION.csv

   For more information, see MySQL Documentation - Data Export and Import.

5. Download a JDBC provider depending on the database you are using (MySQL in this example), and copy it to <APIM_HOME>/repository/components/lib directory.

6. Configure datasource in the <DAS_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/geolocation-datasources.xml file as follows.

   <datasources-configuration xmlns:svns="http://org.wso2.securevault/configuration">
       <datasources>
           <datasource>
               <name>GEO_LOCATION_DATA</name>
               <description>The datasource used for Geo location database</description>
               <jndiConfig>
                   <name>jdbc/GEO_LOCATION_DATA</name>
               </jndiConfig>
               <definition type="RDBMS">
                   <configuration>
                       <url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/GEO_LOCATION_DATA</url>
                       <username>wso2carbon</username>
                       <password>wso2carbon</password>
                       <driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
                       <maxActive>50</maxActive>
                       <maxWait>60000</maxWait>
                       <testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
                       <validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
                       <validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
                       <defaultAutoCommit>false</defaultAutoCommit>
                   </configuration>
               </definition>
           </datasource>
       </datasources>
   </datasources-configuration>

   
   

7. Log into the WSO2 API Manager Admin Portal using the https://localhost:<SERVER_PORT>/admin URL.
8. Under Analytics, click Configure Alerts to open the Alert Configurations page.
   
9. Click Activate for APIM_GEO_LOCATION_STATS. This opens the Edit Configuration page with the default configuration for geolocation statistics as follows. Modify the cron expression is required.
    
10. Click Save Configuration.
