AWStatic is a front-end for AWStats: it reads AWStats data files and produces a static HTML file that can be accessed offline or served by any HTTP server (without CGI support).

The generated report heavily uses JavaScript and cannot be properly displayed if JavaScript support is disabled in your browser.

For now, AWStatic is not much more than a small exercise in building a client-side application. It is far from being as complete as the default front-end shipped with AWStats (although it probably is a bit more elegant). It currently includes:

  • a full statistics overview with hits, pages, visits, visitors and bandwidth by day, by month and by year;
  • top 10 pages (hits and bandwidth) by month and by year;
  • top 10 files (hits and bandwidth) by month and by year;
  • top 30 referrers (pages and hits) by month and by year;
  • top 30 search keywords by month and by year;
  • top 30 search phrases by month and by year.

A future version may include diagrams that show the repartition of operating systems and browsers.

Installation

As usual, installing in a virtual environment is highly recommended:

$ easy_install https://github.com/dbaty/AWStatic/tarball/master

How to use AWStatic

Once installed, AWStatic provides an awstatic executable:

$ awstatic --help
usage: awstatic [-h] [-v] [CONFIG_FILE]

positional arguments:
  CONFIG_FILE    The configuration file to use. Default is "./awstatic.ini".

optional arguments:
  -h, --help     show this help message and exit
  -v, --version  show program's version number and exit

As shown in the help message, AWStatic requires a configuration file. Here is an example:

[awstatic]
awstats_dir = /var/lib/awstats
out_dir = ./out
sites = www.example.com=http://example.com
        www.anotherexample.com=http://another.example.com
pdb = true

[logger]
level = debug
path = -

There are two sections: awstatic and logger. In the awstatic section, you may use the following options:

awstats_dir
Directory where raw AWStats data reside. On Debian, it is /var/lib/awstats by default. If you are not sure where those files are located on your system, look for files named awstats.*.txt.
out_dir
Directory where AWStatic will write its report.
sites

A list of sites to include in the report. Sites are separated by spaces or newline characters. Each site is defined by an identifier that has been used to generate AWStats data files, followed by an equal sign (=), followed by the root URL of the site (which will be used by AWStatic to provide fully qualified URLs in the report).

If multiple sites are provided, the report will include data for all sites and the user will have to select the site she is interested in (see the screenshot above). Sites are supposed to be independant and their data are not merged.

pdb
A debugging option, useful only if you feel adventurous and would like to jump in the code when an exception occurs. Default: false.

In the logger section, you may use the following options:

level
The level at which you want to debug. May be debug, info, warning or error. Default: warning.
path
Path to the log file, or a single dash (-) if logs should be written to the standard error stream. If given a path, it must be an absolute path. Default: -.

Development

AWStatic is hosted on GitHub at https://github.com/dbaty/AWStatic. Feel free to provide feedback and report issues or patches there.

AWStatic comes with automated tests that may be run with tox (that uses both Python 2.7 and Python 3.2) or make test (that uses your default python executable). The latter also opens awstatic/tests/js/tests.html that contains a test suite for the JavaScript code.
