Ecoindex-Cli

This tool provides an easy way to analyze websites with Ecoindex from your local computer using multi-threading. You have the ability to:

• Make the analysis on multiple pages
• Define multiple screen resolution
• Make a recursive analysis from a given website

This CLI is built on top of ecoindex-scraper with Typer

The output is a CSV or JSON file with the results of the analysis.

Requirements

• Docker (optional)

Quickstart

The simplest way to start with ecoindex-cli is to install docker and then create an alias in your .bashrc or .zshrc file:

For MacOS and Windows :

alias ecoindex-cli="docker run -it --rm -v /tmp/ecoindex-cli:/tmp/ecoindex-cli vvatelot/ecoindex-cli:latest ecoindex-cli"

For Linux :

alias ecoindex-cli="docker run -it --rm --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway -v /tmp/ecoindex-cli:/tmp/ecoindex-cli vvatelot/ecoindex-cli:latest ecoindex-cli"

Then you can use the cli as if it was installed on your computer:

ecoindex-cli --help

To enable local testing we use the docker alias host.docker.internal to access your machine localhost. Currently, host.docker.internal is mapped to your IPv4 address. To facilitate local testing, ensure that your localhost is accessible via your IPv4 address (127.0.0.1).

Use case

The docker image vvatelot/ecoindex-cli is available for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 platforms and provides you an easy way to use this CLI on your environment.

The one line command to use it is:

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --recursive --html-report 

Make a simple analysis

You give just one web url

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr

This makes an analysis with a screen resolution of 1920x1080px by default and with the last known version of chromedriver. You can set those settings with options: --window-size and --chrome-version You can add multiple urls to analyze with the option --url. For example:

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --url https://www.ecoindex.fr/a-propos/

Provide urls from a file

You can use a file with given urls that you want to analyze: One url per line. This is helpful if you want to play the same scenario recurrently.

Make a website analysis based on the website's sitemap

The cli allows for the analysis of a designated website using its sitemap. By entering the sitemap URL, the app identifies and analyzes all pages within the website. ⚠️ This can process for a very long time! Use it at your own risks!

ecoindex-cli analyze --sitemap https://www.ecoindex.fr/sitemap.xml

You are about to read urls from a website sitemap. This can take a long time. Are you sure to want to proceed? [Y/n]:

Note: When utilizing the sitemap method with the --recursive flag, please be aware that the recursive flag will not take effect.

Make a recursive analysis

You can make a recursive analysis of a given webiste. This means that the app will try to find out all the pages into your website and launch an analysis on all those web pages. ⚠️ This can process for a very long time! Use it at your own risks!

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --recursive

Generate a html report

You can generate a html report easily at the end of the analysis. You just have to add the option --html-report.

🦄️ Amazing! A report has been generated to /tmp/ecoindex-cli/output/www.ecoindex.fr/2023-14-04_141645/index.html

When generating a html report, the results are written in a CSV file and you can not specify the result file location. So options --export-format and --output-file are ignored.

Here is a sample result:

Other features

Set the output file

You can define the csv output file

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --output-file /tmp/ecoindex-cli/ecoindex.csv

As for the urls-file command, the container has only access to the /tmp/ecoindex-cli folder of your host.

Export to JSON file

By default, the results are exported to a CSV file. But, you can specify to export the results to a JSON file.

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --export-format json

Change wait before / after scroll

By default, the scenario waits 3 seconds before and after scrolling to bottom of the page so that the analysis results are conform to the Ecoindex main API methodology.

You can change this value with the option --wait-before-scroll and --wait-after-scroll to fit your needs.

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --wait-before-scroll 1 --wait-after-scroll 1

Using multi-threading

You can use multi-threading to speed up the analysis when you have a lot of websites to analyze. In this case, you can define the maximum number of workers to use:

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --url https://www.greenit.fr/ --max-workers 10

By default, the number of maximum workers is set to CPU count.

Disable console interaction

You can disable confirmations, and force the app to answer yes to all of them. It can be useful if you need to start the app from another script, or if you have no time to wait it to finish.

ecoindex-cli analyze --url https://www.ecoindex.fr --recursive --no-interaction

Only generate a report from existing result file

If you already performed an anlayzis and (for example), forgot to generate the html report, you do not need to re-run a full analyzis, you can simply request a report from your result file :

ecoindex-cli report "/tmp/ecoindex-cli/output/www.ecoindex.fr/2021-05-06_191355/results.csv" "www.synchrone.fr"

🦄️ Amazing! A report has been generated to /tmp/ecoindex-cli/output/www.ecoindex.fr/2021-05-06_191355/index.html

Results example

The result of the analysis is a CSV or JSON file which can be easily used for further analysis:

Development

Requirements

• Python ^3.10 with pip
• uv
• Task

Installation

At first, you need to install dependencies from the repository root:

uv sync --all-groups
uv run camoufox fetch

Usage

uv run --package ecoindex_cli ecoindex-cli --help
uv run --package ecoindex_cli ecoindex-cli analyze --help
uv run --package ecoindex_cli ecoindex-cli report --help

Testing

We use Pytest to run unit tests for this project. The test suite are in the tests folder. Just execute from the repository root:

uv run pytest --cov-report term-missing:skip-covered --cov=. --cov-config=.coveragerc test

This runs pytest and also generate a coverage report (terminal and html)
