GoatPie

"GoatCounter" analytics for the CLI, written in Python - get it?

Installation

It's available from PyPi using pip:

pip install goatpie

Getting started

Using this library is straightforward.

Commandline

Pretty much self-explanatory - otherwise, --help is your friend:

$ goatpie --help
Usage: goatpie [OPTIONS] URL

  Provides 'Goatcounter' statistics for URL

Options:
  -u, --update         Forces update of local database
  -l, --limit INTEGER  Shows visits & pageviews for the last XY days
  --version            Show the version and exit.
  --help               Show this message and exit.

Package

The underlying module may also be used directly:

from goatpie import GoatPie

# Initialize it
obj = GoatPie(url, token)

# Optionally with `data_dir` (SQLite database, config, etc)
obj = GoatPie(url, token, data_dir)

# Update database
# (1) Last update not before one hour (in seconds)
obj.update(3600)

# (2) Force database update
obj.update(0)

# Get pageviews as `pandas.DataFrame` (last seven days)
print(obj.get_pageviews(7))

#           Day  Pageviews
# 0  2022-08-28          1
# 1  2022-08-27         13
# 2  2022-08-26         20
# 3  2022-08-25         35
# 4  2022-08-24         84
# 5  2022-08-23         64
# 6  2022-08-22         23

Configuration

Besides CLI options (see goatpie --help) you may also configure options (currently only minimum update interval) inside ~/.config/goatpie/config.ini like so:

[DEFAULT]
interval = 3600

[stats.example.com]
interval = 0  # force updates

When first connecting to a 'GoatCounter' domain (such as stats.example.com), you are asked to store your token, in which case your configuration might look like this:

[DEFAULT]
interval = 3600

[stats.example.com]
interval = 0  # force updates
token = my-s3cr3t-t0k3n

[stats.another-example.com]
interval = 1800  # half hour
token = my-0th3r-s3cr3t-t0k3n

Note: Section headers are named after the GoatCounter API endpoints you are using, NOT the pages you are tracking!

Roadmap
