Feature requests

Hi @RichardLitt! I'm looking forward to start using this module more, there are just a couple of things I would love to have in order to do so which. I would like to know if they sounds like they fit in the scope of this module or if I just should go ahead and create one that fits my needs. :) Features I'm looking for are:

• Exposing internal functions for individual use - Improved testing and usage cases
• Expose a -o --output-path option to be able to specify where the data gets written
• Use a streaming interface to avoid running out of memory "process out of memory" error  #15
• Expose a --flat option, where:
  • if true, the output becomes ndjson with the format

//example
"{ timeframe: <2017-10-12--2017-12-20>, project: <org/repo>, user: <username>, issuesCreated: <>,  commits: <>.. plus other data } \n"

• if false, the output becomes just a coalesced json struct

// example:
{
  "2017-10-12--2017-12-20": {
    "org/repo": {
      user1: {
        // all the interesting stats
      }
      user2: {
        // ...
      }
   }
  }
}

• support for a config file that lists several repos and timeframes, so that it generates it all in one swipe
• able to export to csv data
• Also, can the hours be dropped from since and until? Or at least, optional

Overall I just also need it to be working, which I'm being unsuccessful at the moment.

Hey @diasdavid!

Exposing internal functions for individual use - Improved testing and usage cases

Done!

Expose a -o --output-path option to be able to specify where the data gets written

You should be able to pipe it. It now just spits out a single JSON.

#15 shouldn't be an issue anymore.

--flat sounds cool. Want to help with that? Same for config, csv, and hours. If not, we can just open issues for those and I'll get to them eventually.

I've opened issues for each of your requests that are still relevant. Anything else? If not, let's close this and focus on those issues. 🎉

Closing due to lack of response.
