hpde-analytics-cli 2.0.0

Data analysis and reporting tool for HPDE and Time Trials programs

HPDE Analytics CLI

Data analysis and reporting tool that allows a user to connect to the MotorsportsReg (MSR) API to export data and create reports. This tool automates the extraction of event registration data from MSR and generates Excel reports for High Performance Drivers Education (HPDE) and Time Trials program analytics.

Getting Started

These instructions will help you set up the project on your local machine for development and usage.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or higher
• MotorsportsReg OAuth consumer credentials
• pip (Python package installer)

Installation

Option 1: Install from PyPI (Recommended)

pip install hpde-analytics-cli

Option 2: Install from source

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Homan13/hpde-analytics-cli.git
   cd hpde-analytics-cli
   

2. Install the package:

   pip install -e .
   

Configuration

1. Configure your credentials (choose one method):

   Option A: Secure storage (Recommended)

   hpde-analytics-cli --configure
   

   This stores your credentials securely in your system's keyring (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Locker, or Linux Secret Service).

   Option B: Environment file (Fallback)

   cp .env.example .env
   

   Edit .env and add your MotorsportsReg OAuth credentials:

   MSR_CONSUMER_KEY=your_consumer_key_here
   MSR_CONSUMER_SECRET=your_consumer_secret_here
   MSR_BASE_URL=https://api.motorsportreg.com
   MSR_CALLBACK_PORT=8089
   

2. Check credential status (optional):

   hpde-analytics-cli --credential-status
   

3. Run initial authentication:

   hpde-analytics-cli --auth
   

   Follow the browser prompts to authorize the application.

Usage

Export Event Data

Export all event registration data (both raw and filtered formats):

hpde-analytics-cli --export \
  --org-id 11A1AAAA-2B2B-C333-4D4444444D4DD44D \
  --event-id <EVENT_ID> \
  --name HPDE_TT_1_2025

Parameters:

• --org-id: MSR organization ID (required)
• --event-id: MSR event ID (required)
• --name: Custom name for export folder (optional)
• --output-dir: Custom output directory (optional, defaults to output/)

Generate Time Trials Report

Generate an Excel report from exported data:

hpde-analytics-cli --report \
  --export-dir output/HPDE_TT_1_2025_20260110_123456 \
  --name HPDE_TT_1_2025

Parameters:

• --export-dir: Path to exported data folder (required)
• --name: Custom name for report file (optional)
• --report-file: Specific output path for report (optional)

Other Commands

# Configure or update API credentials (secure keyring storage)
hpde-analytics-cli --configure

# Check credential configuration status
hpde-analytics-cli --credential-status

# Re-authenticate if tokens expire
hpde-analytics-cli --auth

# Run field discovery to explore available data
hpde-analytics-cli --discover \
  --org-id <ORG_ID> \
  --event-id <EVENT_ID>

# Show all available options
hpde-analytics-cli --help

Report Features

The generated Time Trials report includes:

• Driver Information: Name, email, member ID
• Vehicle Details: Year/make/model (combined), color, tire brand, vehicle number
• Classification: TT class and class grouping (Max, Sport, Tuner, Unlimited)
• Participation Tracking:
  • Days attended (Friday/Saturday/Sunday/combinations)
  • Day count (1 Day, 2 Days, 3 Days)
  • Instructor status (Yes/No)
  • AYCE participation (Time Trials + Advanced HPDE)
  • Participation type (TT Only, TT + Instructor, TT + AYCE, TT + Instructor + AYCE)

Pivot-Ready Columns: Class Group, Day Count, and Participation Type columns are optimized for Excel pivot table analysis to track registration trends.
