Lambda Function to send your Github Traffic Statistics to New Relic Insights

For repositories that you have push access to within Github, the Github traffic API provides access to the information provided in the graphs section of the repositories UI.

This information includes referral sources, referral paths, views, and clones. The API returns data over the past 14 day period. As the API only returns data over the past 14 day period, this solution aims to give users access to historical Traffic data for their Github repositories within Insights.

This Lambda function calls each endpoint every 15 days and creates custom events that you can then query and create visualisations within New Relic Insights.

See the New Relic One Dashboard below:

How it works

The function uses Github’s token based API authentication to gain access to the user’s repository data. For each of the users repostories, the script makes a call to each Traffic API endpoint and records a custom event using the Event API if there has been any Traffic data reported.

def lambda_handler(event, context):
  base_url = "https://api.github.com"
  user = os.getenv("GITHUB_USERNAME")
  print("Getting repositories for %s" % user)
  req = api_req("%s/users/%s/repos" % (base_url, user))

  ur = [(r["name"]) for r in req]
  print("Found %s repositories" % len(ur))

  print(" ")

  for repo_name in ur:

    print("Getting referral data for %s" % repo_name)
    referrals = api_req(
      "%s/repos/%s/%s/traffic/popular/referrers" % (base_url, user, repo_name)
    )
    if len(referrals) > 0:
      for ref in referrals:
        referred = {
          "eventType": "Referral",
          "repo_name": repo_name,
          "referrer": ref["referrer"],
          "count": ref["count"],
          "uniques": ref["uniques"],
        }
        print(referred)
        record_custom_event(referred)

        print("Getting top referral path data for %s" % repo_name)

        paths = api_req(
          "%s/repos/%s/%s/traffic/popular/paths" % (base_url, user, repo_name)
        )
        if len(paths) > 0:
          for ref in paths:
            paths = {
              "eventType": "ReferralPath",
              "repo_name": repo_name,
              "path": ref["path"],
              "title": ref["title"],
              "count": ref["count"],
              "uniques": ref["uniques"],
            }
            print(paths)
            record_custom_event(paths)

            print("Getting views for %s" % repo_name)
            req = api_req("%s/repos/%s/%s/traffic/views" % (base_url, user, repo_name))
            if req["count"] > 0 or req["uniques"] > 0:
              viewed = {
                "eventType": "View",
                "repo_name": repo_name,
                "count": req["count"],
                "uniques": req["uniques"],
              }
              print(viewed)
              record_custom_event(viewed)

              print("Getting clones for %s" % repo_name)
              req = api_req("%s/repos/%s/%s/traffic/clones" % (base_url, user, repo_name))
              if req["count"] > 0 or req["uniques"] > 0:
                cloned = {
                  "eventType": "Clone",
                  "repo_name": repo_name,
                  "count": req["count"],
                  "uniques": req["uniques"],
                }
                record_custom_event(cloned)
                print(" ")
