This is a simple wrapper to read the Plausible API with Ruby. It's based on the WIP API guide
Add this gem to your Gemfile:
gem 'plausible_api'
Then you need to initialize a Client with your site_id
(the domain) and your token
.
c = PlausibleApi::Client.new('dailytics.com', '123123')
# Test if the site and token are valid
c.valid?
=> true
You have all these options to get the aggregate stats
# Use the default parameters (3mo period + the 4 main metrics)
c.aggregate
# Set parameters (period, metrics, filter, compare)
c.aggregate({ period: '30d' })
c.aggregate({ period: '30d', metrics: 'visitors,pageviews' })
c.aggregate({ period: '30d', metrics: 'visitors,pageviews', filters: 'event:page==/order/confirmation' })
c.aggregate({ date: '2021-01-01,2021-02-10' })
# You'll get something like this:
=> {"bounce_rate"=>{"value"=>81.0}, "pageviews"=>{"value"=>29}, "visit_duration"=>{"value"=>247.0}, "visitors"=>{"value"=>14}}
You have all these options to get the timeseries
# Use the default parameters (3mo period)
c.timeseries
# Set parameters (period, filters, interval)
c.timeseries({ period: '7d' })
c.timeseries({ period: '7d', filters: 'event:page==/order/confirmation' })
c.timeseries({ date: '2021-01-01,2021-02-15' })
# You'll get something like this:
=> [{"date"=>"2021-01-11", "value"=>100}, {"date"=>"2021-01-12", "value"=>120}, {"date"=>"2021-01-13", "value"=>80}...]
# Use the default parameters (30d, event:page)
c.breakdown
# Set parameters (property, period, metrics, limit, page, filters, date)
c.breakdown({ property: 'visit:source' })
c.breakdown({ property: 'visit:source', metrics: 'visitors,pageviews' })
c.breakdown({ property: 'visit:source', metrics: 'visitors,pageviews', period: '30d' })
c.breakdown({ property: 'visit:source', metrics: 'visitors,pageviews', date: '2021-01-01,2021-02-01' })
# You'll get something like this:
=> [{"page"=>"/", "visitors"=>41}, {"page"=>"/plans/", "visitors"=>14}, {"page"=>"/agencies/", "visitors"=>8}, {"page"=>"/features/", "visitors"=>8}, {"page"=>"/ready/", "visitors"=>5}, {"page"=>"/contact/", "visitors"=>4}, {"page"=>"/about/", "visitors"=>3}, {"page"=>"/donate/", "visitors"=>3}]
It's as simple as:
c.realtime_visitors
=> 13
