Command Line Usage

Usage of ./marketplace-stats:

        If the report should be anonymized and not include critical data like sales.
  -cache-file string
        The file where sales data is cached. Use -fetch to update it.
  -fetch

        The file where the HTML sales report is saved. (default "report.html")
  -plugin-id string
        The ID of the plugin, e.g. 12345.

  -token-file string
        Path to a file, which contains the token to access the API of the JetBrains marketplace.

Generating Reports

Reports are self-contained HTML files. The file uses an optional font from Google Fonts, but everything else is in the HTML file.

To generate a report, you need the following:

The following command generates report.html for plugin 123456. The token is retrieved from the given file.

# marketplace-stats is in $GOPATH/bin, e.g. $HOME/go/bin
marketplace-stats -plugin-id 123456 -token-file token.txt -out report.html 

Generating Reports For Sharing

An anonymized report only contains data which is valuable for other developers without revealing the actual sales and number of active users.

# marketplace-stats is in $GOPATH/bin, e.g. $HOME/go/bin
marketplace-stats -anonymized -plugin-id 123456 -token-file token.txt -out report-anonymized.html

Contributing

This tool is made for my own plugins and requirements. I'm not planning to spend time to adjust it to the requirements of others.

I'll gladly accept pull requests, if they don't break existing functionality.
