Analytics for custom integrations

Third party integrations
1

I don't know if it's the transition to in integration brands or not, but I've built a few custom integrations since the switch and it looks like the analytics site is not capturing any data on installation counts.

To be specific https://analytics.home-assistant.io/custom_integrations.json doesn't seem to have any data on any of these integrations while it does have data that is current on other custom integrations that I have and work on that are in the brands hosting. Is this a known issue? It's great that I can get download counts out of GitHub for my releases, but knowing an approximate number of how many people are on what version would be helpful to me!

Keep in mind that Analytics are opt-in, and only represent about 1/3 of the estimated instances out there...

I'm aware that Rental Control is in there. I pull the stats for it and several other integrations that I work on regularly with a script that I wrote when I need to look over the spread of current installations.

I'm talking about for newer integrations that I work on. I know that they aren't collecting any stats for them because they don't show up in the listing and at least one: (Lock Code Manager) that I know of that used to show up disappeared from the stats with the transition to custom integrations hosting their own branding as this integration (which has been around for over a year) stopped showing up completely as it has never been in the branding or in HACS default.

I thought it might be related to being in HACS default, but after I landed a new one: (Local Akuvox) of mine in there and it still doesn't show up in the stats when I know there's at least 30 installations based just solely on my download numbers from GitHub. I can only assume that there is something else at play and the only real difference from Rental Control is that both of the integrations I've linked to are not in the brands hosting but at the same time both of them are in HACS default.

Guess I wasn't the only one that missed having stats for an "unknown" integration since the switch :smiley:

I guess the question is, how long before that is actually released since it's still open and not merged?

it was reviewed 30 minutes ago so it's getting some movement. Since it's a website artifact, I think things will just work once it is merged but I could be wrong.

And I only caught this post because you linked to mine :slight_smile:

I figured as much :wink:
