Painless Google Analytics
Project description
Gapy is a thin service account client for Google Analytics.
Get set up
First you need to create either a service account or client ID in your Google API Console. If you’re authenticating as a service account you’ll need to download your private key.
If you’re authenticating as a web or installed application you’ll need to download your client secrets file. Use the Google Developers Console to do this:
Create a Project for thte application, and add the Analytics API to the Enabled APIs list.
In “Credentials”, click “Create new Client ID”.
Choose “Installed Application” and type should be “Other”.
Once it’s generated your ID, click the new “Download JSON” button and save this file as client_secrets.json.
Then just create a gapy client and start querying.
storage_path is the location where you want gapy to keep the storage.db file that it will generate the first time it runs.
Ids, metrics and dimensions can be provided as lists or single values.
import gapy.client
# For a service account
client = gapy.client.from_private_key(
"your account name",
private_key="your private key",
storage_path="path/to/storage.db")
# For a web or installed application
client = gapy.client.from_secrets_file(
"/path/to/client_secrets.json",
storage_path="/path/to/storage.db")
)
reach_data = client.query.get("12345",
datetime(2012, 1, 1),
datetime(2012, 2, 2),
['ga:visits', 'ga:visitors'],
'ga:date')
