A CKAN extension for doing things with Google Analytics:
* It sticks tracking code in your templates for you
* It provides a way for your controllers to access data from GA
The second item is all hard-coded, rough-and-ready, proof-of-concept
at the moment.
Installation
============
1. Install the extension as usual, e.g.
::
$ pip install -e hg+https://bitbucket.org/sebbacon/ckanext-googleanalytics#package=/ckanext-googleanalytics
2. Edit your development.ini (or similar) with:
::
googleanalytics.id = UA-1010101-1
googleanalytics.username = googleaccount@gmail.com
googleanalytics.password = googlepassword
# the following *must* match profile name in GA dashboard
googleanalytics.profile_name = mydomain.com/
3. Look at some stats within CKAN
Once your GA account has gathered some data, you can see some basic
information about the most popular packages at:
http://localhost:5000/analytics/package/top
TODO
====
* Turn the access-package-data-from-analytics-within-ckan
functionality into something resembling an API
* Understand the standard way to do caching in CKAN
