sort_client_labels sorts first by total, and then to ensure deterministic
outcomes, sorts (reverse) alphabetically by label.
Fixes regression introduced in 0c0e539.
Previously we showed the total number of users with an active account. This
changes it to show only the number of users that have logged in in the past
two weeks.
Rename 'zulip_internal' decorator to 'require_server_admin', add
documentation for 'server_admin', explaining how to give permission
for ./activity page.
Fixes: #1463.
Previously we would update FillState for daily stats on hourly boundaries as
well. This would create two extra queries on the FillState table every hour
(for each CountStat), which adds roughly 50ms of extra processing for each
CountStat each day, as well as two extra lines each hour in the analytics
log. This can be a minor annoyance when backfilling stats.
I think this is more pythonic?
We could also get rid of LoggingCountStats altogether, since it's now just a
special case of CountStat (is_logging == data_collector.pull_function is None).
But I think it's nice to keep the distinction since they behave so differently.
Removes the circular dependency of CountStat containing a DataCollector, and
DataCollector containing a function that takes a CountStat as an argument.
This will allow us to appropriately generalize CountStat to include
LoggingCountStat and CustomPullCountStat. It'll also make life easier when
we introduce DependentCountStat.
The previous zerver_* names were unwieldy and not very readable. This also
puts more of the useful information in one place; in particular, makes it
easier to skim a CountStat declaration and see if we're collecting it at a
user/stream granularity or a realm granularity.
It turned out to not be that useful once we added subgroup. The previous
design of the CountStat object also assumed more reuseability of the *_query
strings than what ended up happening.
The filter_args also had some carrying costs:
* It's hard to be confident that filter_args other than the ones explicitly
in our tests would have had expected behavior.
* The filter_args/join_args system is the most complex part of the CountStat
object, and makes understanding the *_query strings unnecessarily
difficult for a new contributor.
Groundwork for allowing stats like "Monthly Active Users".
CountStat.interval is no longer as clean a value as before, so removed it
from views.get_chart_data. It wasn't being used by the frontend anyway.
Removing interval from logger calls in counts.py is not a big loss since we
now include the frequency (which is typically also the interval) in
CountStat.property.
The code in fixtures.py is only called from populate_analytics_db, and is
only used for generating pretty fixture data for manual testing. This commit
adds tests for a few things that were easy to add tests for, and provides
some minimal coverage of the file, but is not meant to be comprehensive.
Originally, all the client names in populate_analytics_db started with
underscores to make it easy to selectively delete and regenerate them when
re-running populate_analytics_db.
We eventually want to merge populate_analytics_db into populate_db though,
in which case it makes more sense for them to share client names, and not
worry about the case where we run (or re-run) populate_analytics_db
independently of populate_db.
It will simplify the logic needed to process the "Sent by Me" view in
Messages Sent Over Time in stats.js.
Also, we gzip the data sent from our server, so there is little additional
network usage by doing this.
