github-traffic-stats
====================

Get statistics on web traffic to your GitHub repositories.

Python CLI
----------

Python CLI tool to get web traffic stats on the command line using the
GitHub API.

A few use cases to show why this may be useful.

-  Checking the volume of traffic to all of your repos. Monitor sudden
   spikes in interest or any general patterns.
-  Storing the traffic stats for future reference.
-  Checking how often your code is cloned.

Installation
------------

::

    pip install github_traffic_stats

Dependencies
------------

-  Requests (`kennethreitz/requests`_)

There are a number of GitHub `libraries`_ for Python and other
languages, although they may not support the Repository Traffic API
(announced on August 15, 2016).

Usage
-----

::

    usage: gts [-h] username [repo] [save_csv] [-o]
       or: 
    usage: gts [-h] username:password [repo] [save_csv] [-o]

    positional arguments:
      username    Github username
      password    Github password for 'username', or access token
      repo        User's repo
      save_csv    Set to "no_csv" if no CSV should be saved

    optional arguments:
      -h, --help  show this help message and exit
      -o, --organization specify Github organization if different from username
