This code is going to end up pretty complex -- each stat has multiple levels
of aggregation (UserCount, RealmCount, InstallationCount), and refinement
(subgroups), and soon we'll have charts that take data from multiple stats
as input.
Not sure what the best way to present it is, but hopefully this simplifies
it a bit.
We use "Everyone" for the button labels already.
Soon we'll support "Everyone" meaning either the installation or the realm,
depending on the URL route used to access the stats.
In this commit:
Two new URLs are added, to make all realms accessible for server
admins. One is for the stats page itself and another for getting
chart data i.e. chart data API requests.
For the above two new URLs corresponding two view functions are
added.
I've wanted this when looking at a tab from the day before.
Also provides the date and time in UTC, which is handy for
interpreting some of the data.
Pretty sure this is not the world's cleanest way to do this in the
front-end code. It'll do for now.
Substantively, this makes the table more readable by grouping users
into expanding sets by level of activity: active in last day, active
in last week, have an account at all. The class "active in last week",
as opposed to "active in last week but not in last day", makes more
natural comparisons both between realms and for one realm through time,
and it's less sensitive to the details of our definitions.
This also makes the terminology more standard. We already made that
change in the display, in the previous commit; as we go through the
logic here, we adjust the terminology in the code too.
Previously, entering a non-UTC end time for a daily stat would give you
incorrect results. This is because:
* All daily stats are collected at and have end_times in the database in
midnight UTC.
* For daily stats, time_range returns a list of datetimes at midnight in the
timezone of its end argument. These datetimes are the only ones we look
for when looking for rows corresponding to the stat in the database.
* Previously, we passed on the end argument from the API to time_range,
without modification.
This consists of the `zulip_ops::stats` Puppet class, which has apparently
not been used since 2014, and a number of files that I believe were
only used for that. Also a couple of tiny loose ends in other files.
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.
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.
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.
