[Bioc-devel] downloads number status shields for packages

Hi Marcin,

Here is a link to how Bioconductor creates it's badges:
https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioconductor.org/blob/master/Rakefile#L648

If you would like to create a badge for raw counts the following might
be of use to you. Please also see help on XML Path Language:
https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/#path-abbrev



library(xml2)
url = "http://bioconductor.org/packages/stats/bioc/RTCGA.html"
doc = read_html(url)
rtcga = xml_find_all(doc, "//table[@class='stats']/tr/td[2]/text()")
%>% as.character %>% as.integer

url2 = "http://bioconductor.org/packages/stats/index.html"
doc2 = read_html(url2)
all = xml_find_all(doc2, "//table[@class='stats']/tr/td[2]/text()")
%>% as.character %>% as.integer

Hi Robert,

Thanks for reply.

What if I am interested in both showing raw counts and percentiles?
If this is not created and no one is willing to create sush shields, then I
can volounteer for that.
It'll be great to have some examples on how the percentile badges were
created.

Best,
Marcin

That's correct.

Hi Marcin, Robert,

I think one problem with raw counts is that these reflect only downloads
from BioC servers and not from the mirrors - is that correct @Dan?

Cheers,
Andrzej

Those numbers are used to calculate the percentile download stat that is
already on a given bioconductor package landing page. See
http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/RTCGA.html

I believe this was the way the Bioc admins went instead of just raw
downloads.

Hi all,

Have anyone considered creating shields (http://shields.io/) with the
status of total downloads number for packages held on bioc? This

already

works for CRAN packages http://cranlogs.r-pkg.org/

It could take total `Nb of downloads` from the right table like here
http://bioconductor.org/packages/stats/bioc/RTCGA.html

Best,
Marcin
