Getting download counts for release assets

[markcmiller86]

If you create a personal access token, you can use the rest api to query details about our release assets...

We should package the below into a tool/script we can occasionally run.

Get the data

curl -L -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR PAT HERE>"
-H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" https://api.github.com/repos/visit-dav/visit/releases > junk.out

Read the data

import json
f = open('junk.out')
x = json.load(f)
for r in range(len(x)):
    for a in range(len(x[r]['assets'])):
        row = [x[r]['assets'][a]['name'],x[r]['assets'][a]['download_count']]
        print("{: >50} {: >10}".format(*row))

Is anyone a little surprised how many instances there apparently are of just building VisIt from sources?

Ok, I've done some python stuff to make pie charts of pre-compiled binary asset download counts...

[markcmiller86]

here is the python code, which starts from the file created, junk.out from the above curl command.

import json
import re

#
# We really need to unify the way we name binary release assets
# visitX.Y.Z-os-osv-arch.txz
#
version_digits_pattern = r'(\d+[._-]\d+[._-]\d+).*\.(tar\.gz|tgz|exe|zip|dmg)$'
os_pattern = r'(jvisit|centos|debian|fedora|rhel|ubuntu|darwin|windows)(\d+)?(.*)\.(tar\.gz|tgz|exe|zip|dmg)$'
f = open('junk.out')
x = json.load(f)
counts = {}
for r in range(len(x)):
    for a in range(len(x[r]['assets'])):
        asset_name = x[r]['assets'][a]['name']
        asset_dlcount = x[r]['assets'][a]['download_count']
        matches = re.findall(version_digits_pattern, asset_name)
        if not matches:
            continue
        version_digits = matches[0][0].replace("_",".").replace("-",".") 
        if version_digits not in counts:
            counts[version_digits] = {}
        matches = re.findall(os_pattern, asset_name)
        if not matches:
            continue
        os_string = matches[0][0]
        notes = ""
        if os_string == "darwin":
            if "x86" in matches[0][2]:
                notes = "x86_64"
                os_ver = re.findall("\d\d[.-_]\d\d", matches[0][2])
                if len(os_ver) == 2 and "86" in os_ver[0]:
                    os_ver = os_ver[1].replace("_",".").replace("-",".")
                else:
                    os_ver = ""
        else:

            os_ver = ""
            notes = ""
        if notes and notes[0] == '-':
            notes = notes[1:]
        if os_ver and os_ver[0] == '-':
            os_ver = os_ver[1:]
        if os_ver and notes:
            rel_asset = "%s-%s-%s"%(os_string, os_ver, notes)
        elif os_ver:
            rel_asset = "%s-%s"%(os_string, os_ver)
        else:
            rel_asset = "%s"%(os_string)

        counts[version_digits][rel_asset] = asset_dlcount


import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

for v in counts.keys():
    
    # Extract labels and sizes
    labels = counts[v].keys()
    sizes = counts[v].values()

    # Create the pie chart
    plt.figure()
    plt.pie(sizes, labels=labels, autopct='%1.1f%%')
    plt.axis('equal')  # Equal aspect ratio ensures the pie chart is circular.
    plt.title(v)

    # Display the chart
    #plt.show(block=False)  # Display the plot non-blockingly

    # Wait for user input to proceed
    #input("Press Enter to continue to the next plot...")

    filename = f"%s-download-counts.png"%v
    plt.savefig(filename)
    plt.close()  # Close the current plot

I think more informative plots would be for each release asset name as a function of version. We would then be able to see those growing or waning in popularity. I tried that but didn't get much more informed results...
