14:07	pdurbin	donsizemore: mornin. What's the status of https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/3397 please?
14:09	donsizemore	@pdurbin guilty... i made the edit in the web interface so i haven't tested. but all i did was remove the word "true"
14:15	pdurbin	donsizemore: can I close the pull request and just add another bullet to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2944 ?
14:15	donsizemore	@pdurbin certainly
14:17	pdurbin	donsizemore: oh, I already added it
14:21		jri joined #dataverse
14:29	pdurbin	donsizemore: I just labeled 2944 as low-hanging-fruit: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2594#issuecomment-253815443
14:29	pdurbin	If anyone knows of other low-hanging-fruit issues, please let me know!

17:41	bricas_	i was wondering if someone could clear up the "stats" features of dataverse -- what sort of built-in stats can be kept, what does GA or Piwik integration track?
17:44		djbrooke joined #dataverse
17:59		djbrooke joined #dataverse
17:59	pdurbin	bricas_: well, one new thing is this: http://dataverse.org/metrics
18:15	djbrooke	Hey bricas_ - we'll provide some stats on an administrative dashboard as part of 4.7. We'll be gathering information about what stats are the most useful for our users. May I get in touch with you about your metrics needs as we start to gather requirements?
18:32	bricas_	djbrooke: sure. we have an empty dataverse installatation right now, hoping to roll out a public release soon.
18:32	bricas_	the working group here were just wondering about download tracking, etc, and we noticed the piwik integration in the last release
18:34	bricas_	the GA snippet seems odd to me (https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/develop/src/main/webapp/google-analytics-snippet.xhtml) with "social" hit types...?
18:35	bricas_	(i haven't done anything but the most basic GA integration before, fyi)
18:36	bricas_	pdurbin: i'd say the only thing the working group would be interested there would be downloads, honestly. is there page-views or any such other metrics?
18:38	pdurbin	bricas_: there's other stuff exposed as JSON: https://services.dataverse.harvard.edu/static/swagger-ui/
18:40	bricas_	pdurbin: excellent!
18:42	pdurbin	:)
18:42	pdurbin	everybody loves Swagger
18:44	pdurbin	bricas_: the code is at https://github.com/IQSS/miniverse if you'd like to point it at your Dataverse installation.
18:51		bricas joined #dataverse
18:51	bricas	pdurbin: thanks for that link too.
18:53	bricas	pdurbin: so does the GA/Piwik integration track individual downloads for example?
18:58		telnoratti joined #dataverse
18:58	bricas	gotta go. have a great weekend.

19:20	pdurbin	djbrooke: do you know if Google Analytics tracks individual downloads? My guess is that it doesn't but I really don't know.
19:21	pdurbin	bricas: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2729 is the main place I know of where the community has been discussing which metrics they'd like. You are welcome to leave a comment there. After you enjoy your weekend. :)
19:51	pdurbin	telnoratti: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/3292 was merged. Thanks!

23:10	telnoratti	awesome
23:49	pdurbin	telnoratti: should we go ahead and create an issue in the datavese-aws repo about no longer modifying the install script?
