## Description
**NewsStats** stores overview data and complete headers of all incoming postings (in one or more specific Usenet hierarchies) in real time in a MySQL database. This raw dataset can then be analysed regularly, e.g. monthly, for instance in terms of postings per group and month. The analysis results will also be stored in a database which in turn can be used to generate various reports.

The analysis results will also be stored in databases which in turn can be used to generate various reports (postings per group, injection server or posting agent, per month).
The software package is still under development.
It is currently used to generate the monthly statistics posted to `de.admin.news.lists` for the de.\* hierarchy.

=head1 NAME
clientstats - create reports on client usage
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<clientstats> [B<-Vhcsv> B<--comments>] [B<-m> I<YYYY-MM>[:I<YYYY-MM>] | I<all>] [B<-n> I<client(s)>] [B<-r> I<report type>] [B<-l> I<lower boundary>] [B<-u> I<upper boundary>] [B<-g> I<group by>] [B<-o> I<order by>] [B<-f> I<output format>] [B<--filetemplate> I<filename template>] [B<--db> I<database table>] [B<--conffile> I<filename>]
=head1 REQUIREMENTS
See L<doc/README>.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This script create reports on newsgroup usage (number of postings
using each client per month) taken from result tables created by
B<gatherstats.pl>.
=head2 Features and options
=head3 Time period and names
The time period to act on defaults to last month; you can assign another
time period or a single month (or drop all time constraints) via the
B<--month> option (see below).
B<clientstats> will process all clients by default; you can limit
processing to only some clients by supplying a list of those names by
using the B<--names> option (see below).
=head3 Report type
You can choose between different B<--report> types: postings per month
or all postings summed up; for details, see below.
=head3 Upper and lower boundaries
Furthermore you can set an upper and/or lower boundary to exclude some
results from output via the B<--lower> and B<--upper> options,
respectively. By default, all clients with more and/or less postings
per month will be excluded from the result set (i.e. not shown and
not considered for sum reports).
=head3 Sorting and formatting the output
By default, all results are grouped by month; you can group results by
clients instead via the B<--group-by> option. Within those groups,
the list of clients (or months) is sorted alphabetically
(or chronologically, respectively) ascending. You can change that order
(and sort by number of postings) with the B<--order-by> option. For
details and exceptions, please see below.
The results will be formatted as a kind of table; you can change the
output format to a simple list or just a list of names and number of
postings with the B<--format> option. Captions will be added by means
of the B<--caption> option; all comments (and captions) can be
supressed by using B<--nocomments>.
Last but not least you can redirect all output to a number of files,
e.g. one for each month, by submitting the B<--filetemplate> option,
see below.
=head2 Configuration
B<clientstats> will read its configuration from F<newsstats.conf>
which should be present in etc/ via Config::Auto or from a configuration
file submitted by the B<--conffile> option.
See doc/INSTALL for an overview of possible configuration options.
You can override some configuration options via the B<--db> option.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 3
=item B<-V>, B<--version>
Display version and copyright information and exit.
=item B<-h>, B<--help>
Display this man page and exit.
=item B<-m>, B<--month> I<YYYY-MM[:YYYY-MM]|all>
Set processing period to a single month in YYYY-MM format or to a time
period between two month in YYYY-MM:YYYY-MM format (two month, separated
by a colon). By using the keyword I<all> instead, you can set no
processing period to process the whole database. Defaults to last month.
=item B<-n>, B<--names> I<name(s)>
Limit processing to a certain set of client names. I<names(s)>
can be a single name (Thunderbird), a group of names (Ice*) or a list
of either of these, separated by colons, for example
Forte Agent:Thunderbird:Ice*
Spaces or special characters like "*" need to be quoted from the shell,
like
-n 'Forte Agent:Thunderbird:Ice*'
There is no way to limit processing to a specific version, but you can
alway grep through the output.
=item B<-s>, B<--sums|--nosums> (sum per month)
Include "virtual" clients named "ALL" for every month in output,
containing the sum of all detected clients for that month. False
by default.
=item B<-v>, B<--versions|--noversions> (client versions)
Include a list of all observed versions of each client in output.
Version information will be displayed with indents ('-') below each
client, sorted in the same way (by postings or alphanumeric). False
by default.
=item B<-r>, B<--report> I<default|sums>
Choose the report type: I<default> or I<sums>
By default, B<clientstats> will report the number of postings for each
client in each month. But it can also report the total sum of postings
per client for all months. Sums of B<--versions> can be included.
For report type I<sums>, the B<group-by> option has no meaning and
will be silently ignored (see below).
=item B<-l>, B<--lower> I<lower boundary>
Set the lower boundary. See below.
=item B<-l>, B<--upper> I<upper boundary>
Set the upper boundary.
By default, all clients with more postings per month than the
upper boundary and/or less postings per month than the lower boundary
will be excluded from further processing. For the default report that
means each month only clients with a number of postings between the
boundaries will be displayed. For the sums report, clients with a
number of postings exceeding the boundaries in all (!) months will
not be considered.
=item B<-g>, B<--group-by> I<month[-desc]|name[-desc]>
By default, all results are grouped by month, sorted chronologically in
ascending order, like this:
# ----- 2012-01:
40tude_Dialog: 5873
Forte Agent : 7735
Thunderbird : 20925
# ----- 2012-02:
40tude_Dialog: 4142
Forte Agent : 5895
Thunderbird : 19091
The results can be grouped by client instead via
B<--group-by> I<name>:
# ----- 40tude_Dialog:
2012-01: 5873
2012-02: 4142
# ----- Forte Agent:
2012-01: 7735
2012-02: 5895
# ----- Thunderbird:
2012-01: 20925
2012-02: 19091
By appending I<-desc> to the group-by option parameter, you can reverse
the sort order - e.g. B<--group-by> I<month-desc> will give:
# ----- 2012-02:
40tude_Dialog: 4142
Forte Agent : 5895
Thunderbird : 19091
# ----- 2012-01:
40tude_Dialog: 5873
Forte Agent : 7735
Thunderbird : 20925
Sums reports (see above) will always be grouped by months; this option
will therefore be ignored.
=item B<-o>, B<--order-by> I<default[-desc]|postings[-desc]>
Within each group (a single month or single client, see above),
the report will be sorted by name (or month) in ascending alphabetical
order by default. You can change the sort order to descending or sort
by number of postings instead.
By default, output is sorted alphabetically:
# ----- 2012-01:
40tude_Dialog: 5873
Forte Agent : 7735
Thunderbird : 20925
Using B<--order-by> I<postings[-desc]>, it will be sorted from most
to least postings:
# ----- 2012-01:
Thunderbird : 20925
Forte Agent : 7735
40tude_Dialog: 5873
=item B<-f>, B<--format> I<pretty|list|dump>
Select the output format, I<pretty> (a kind of table) being the default:
# ----- 2012-01:
40tude_Dialog: 5873
Forte Agent : 7735
# ----- 2012-02:
40tude_Dialog: 4142
Forte Agent : 5895
I<list> format looks like this (each client preceded by month):
2012-01 40tude_Dialog 5873
2012-01 Forte Agent 7735
2012-02 40tude_Dialog 4142
2012-02 Forte Agent 5895
And I<dump> format looks like this:
# 2012-01:
40tude_Dialog 5873
Forte Agent 7735
# 2012-02:
40tude_Dialog 4142
Forte Agent 5895
You can remove the comments (lines after '#') by using B<--nocomments>,
see below.
=item B<-c>, B<--captions|--nocaptions>
Add captions to output, like this:
----- Report for 2012-01 to 2012-02 (number of postings for each month)
----- Names: Thunderbird
----- Threshold: 8000 => x (counting only month fulfilling this condition)
----- Grouped by Month (ascending), sorted by number of postings descending
False by default.
=item B<--comments|--nocomments>
Add comments (group headers) to I<dump> and I<pretty> output. True by
default as long as B<--filetemplate> is not set.
Use I<--nocomments> to suppress anything except client names or months
and numbers of postings.
=item B<--filetemplate> I<filename template>
Save output to file(s) instead of dumping it to STDOUT. B<clientstats>
will create one file for each month (or each client, according to the
setting of B<--group-by>, see above), with filenames composed by adding
year and month (or client names) to the I<filename template>, for
example with B<--filetemplate> I<stats>:
stats-2012-01
stats-2012-02
... and so on
=item B<--db> I<database table>
Override I<DBTableClnts> or I<DBTableClnts> from F<newsstats.conf>.
=item B<--conffile> I<filename>
Read configuration from I<filename> instead of F<newsstats.conf>.
=back
=head1 INSTALLATION
See L<doc/INSTALL>.
=head1 EXAMPLES
Show number of postings per client for lasth month in I<pretty> format:
clientstats
Show that report for January of 2010 and Thunderbird plus Ice*:
clientstats --month 2010-01 --names 'Thunderbird:Ice*'
Only show clients with at least 30 postings last month and the versions
of those clients, ordered each by number of postings, descending,
in I<pretty> format:
clientstats --lower 30 --versions --order-by postings-desc
List number of postings per client for each month of 2010 and redirect
output to one file for each month, named hosts-2010-01 and so on, in
machine-readable form (without formatting):
clientstats -m 2010-01:2010-12 -f dump --filetemplate hosts

kleiner sein als die Postingzahl fuer den Newsreader. Ausserdem koennen
an einem Beitrag mehrere Clients beteiligt sein, bspw. der Newsreader

Newsreader groesser sein als die Summe der Postings; auch ergeben die

What's that?
There's a multitude of tools for the statistical examination of
newsgroups: number of postings per month or per person, longest
threads, and so on (see <https://th-h.de/net/usenet/stats/>
[German language] for an incomplete list). Most of them use a per-
newsgroup approach while NewsStats is hierarchy oriented.

tabulation of postings per group, injection server and posting

Example:
bin/gatherstats.pl
will parse raw data from the last month and save the results in
tables for postings per group, server and client, respectively.
Report generation is handled by specialised scripts for each
report type. Currently reports on the number of postings per group
and month and injection server and month are supported; you can
use 'groupstats.pl' and 'cliservstats.pl' for that. See the
groupstats.pl and cliservstats.pl man pages for more information.
report type: 'groupstats.pl' for postings per group
(s), 'hoststats.pl' for postings per injection server
(s) and 'clientstats.pl' for postings per posting agent. See the
groupstats.pl, hoststats.pl and clientstats.pl man pages for more
information.
Example:
bin/groupstats.pl -o postings-desc
bin/hoststats.pl -o postings-desc
bin/clientstats.pl -o postings-desc -v
will show reports for postings per group, per injection server and
per client (with detailed client versions) for the last month,
using the result tables filled by gatherstats.
To post those reports to Usenet, change postingstats.pl according
to your needs (sender, newsgroups and other headers, translation
of table headers and text templates) and display a test posting
by piping report data into postingstats.pl:
bin/groupstats.pl --nocomments -s -f dump | bin/postingstats.pl
If the result is to your liking, add a pipe to a inews
implementation.
Example:
bin/groupstats.pl --nocomments -s -f dump | bin/postingstats.pl | contrib/tinews.pl -X
