event-reporter 1.0.8

backend reporting via a worker/queue system

event-reporter

A Python wrapper for backend reporting via a worker/queue system.

System flow:

Store event quickly on webserver [e.g. within a flask endpoint]:

from event_reporter import EventReporter
from redis import StrictRedis

er = EventReporter(conn=StrictRedis())

er.store('ga', 'event', '<uuid4 clientid>', category='event_category', action='action_name', aip='1', uip='1.2.3.4', ds='web')

Fetch event within worker and dispatch to final destination:

from event_reporter import EventReporter
from redis import StrictRedis

er = EventReporter(conn=StrictRedis())

r = er.fetch()

er.dispatch(r)

Env vars used

EVENTREPORTER_QUEUE_NAME (redis key) UA_ID (GA UA ID) EVENTREPORTER_TTL (int: controls whether to set expire time for redis keys)

Testing

export UA_ID='My_UA_ID'

nosetests -s

Dispatch Types

• ga: GA
• 'honey`: honeycomb.io
• slack: slack

Example slack event: Simple message

er.store('slack', 'event', '<uuid4>', webhook='<slack_webhook_uri>', message='text')

Example slack event: Blocks message

er.store('slack', 'event', '<uuid4>', webhook='<slack_webhook_uri>', blocks=<list_of_dicts>)

Example slack blocks format

[
	{
		"type": "section",
		"text": {
			"type": "mrkdwn",
			"text": "Hello
			}
	}
]

.. and check your GA property, honeycomb dash, or slack channel to see the data.
