An analytics and report generation engine for site audits.

$ cd PageGrabber

$ npm install

Getting Data

To query a site based off of a csv file:

node app -f /path/to/file.csv

Querying data and generating reports

To get a command listing and info about installed reports:

$ node report -h

  Usage: report [options]

  Options:

    -h, --help            output usage information
    -V, --version         output the version number
    -r --report [string]  Report to generate

Reports:
    httpoccurences : Generate a report that tracks the number of non-secure links and their line numbers

To use a report:

$ node report -r httpoccurences

Report written to:
 /path/to/project/httpoccurences.csv

Running the tool against a site generates a sqlite db based on the returned results that can also be queried with a tool for some quick-and-dirty information.

Report API

Reports are stored in the reports/ folder and should expose an info property that gives info about the report and a gen method that will be called to generate the report and is expected to return the filepath of the report.

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const filepath = path.normalize('./data.csv');

module.exports =  {
  info: 'An example report. In JS!',
  gen: function(Models, input) {
    //All sequelize models contained in the sqlite 
    //DB are in the Models object

    //The input var is what is passed to the report command
    //with the optional -i flag, else it is undefined.

    let stream = fs.createWriteStream(filepath);
    Models.Result.findAll().then((dbresults) => {
      //Dump whatever data you need here
      stream.write(dbresults.map((dbresult) => {
        return dbresult.toJSON().url;
      }).join(',') + '\n');
      stream.end();
    });
    
    return filepath;
  }
};
