NewsStats To-Do List
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This is a list of planned bug fixes, improvements and enhancements for
|
|
NewsStats.
|
|
|
|
Bug numbers refer to the Mantis issue tracker at <http://bugs.th-h.de/>.
|
|
|
|
* General
|
|
- Improve Documentation
|
|
The documentation is rather sparse and could use some improvement.
|
|
- Add a test suite
|
|
There is currently no kind of test suite or regression tests. Something like
|
|
that is badly needed.
|
|
|
|
* Additional features
|
|
- Add hierarchy information (GroupInfo - Bugs #19 #20 #21 #22 #23 #24 #25 #26)
|
|
NewsStats should be able to recognize invalid (i.e. officially not existing)
|
|
newsgroups and - optionally - drop them from the list of groups. On the
|
|
other hand, it should recognize existing, but empty groups and add them with
|
|
a posting count of 0 to its list.
|
|
NewsStats should be able to do that for any past month.
|
|
It would be nice to make up a kind of hierarchy database from that with
|
|
information like description, charter and moderation status. You should be
|
|
able to get a list of valid groups for any given month (with a bit of slack
|
|
for late creation and deletion), optionally including the previously
|
|
mentioned information; and you should be able to get the history of any
|
|
group.
|
|
- Add other reports
|
|
NewsStats should include some other kinds of reports (stats on used clients,
|
|
on postings hosts/servers, ...)
|
|
- Add tools for database management
|
|
NewsStats should offer tools e.g. to inject postings into the 'raw' database,
|
|
or to split databases.
|
|
|
|
* Individual improvements
|
|
+ NewsStats.pm
|
|
- Add error handling when reading config (Bug #13)
|
|
NewsStats should check if all mandatory options are set. Some syntax or
|
|
content related checks would be in order.
|
|
Some other tests - working database connection, valid database and table
|
|
names - would be nice.
|
|
|
|
+ install/install.pl
|
|
- Add / enhance / test error handling
|
|
- General tests and optimisations
|
|
|
|
+ feedlog.pl
|
|
- Complete rewrite (like groupstats.pl, include changes in NewsStats.pm)
|
|
- Gracefully handle interruptions to database connection, at least log
|
|
lost postings (Bug #30).
|
|
- Buffer output that cannot be written to database (Bug #31).
|
|
- Add / enhance / test error handling
|
|
- General tests and optimisations
|
|
|
|
+ gatherstats.pl
|
|
- Complete rewrite (like groupstats.pl, include changes in NewsStats.pm)
|
|
- Use hierarchy information (see GroupInfo above)
|
|
- Add gathering of other stats (clients, hosts, ...)
|
|
- better modularisation (code reuse for other reports!)
|
|
- Add / enhance / test error handling
|
|
- General tests and optimisations
|
|
|
|
+ groupstats.pl
|
|
- better modularisation (code reuse for other reports!)
