Capgo - Live Updates for Capacitor Apps Capgo

Statistics API

Statistics API

Section titled “Statistics API”

Starting from version 1.3.0 the update system is able to send stats!

By default, all stats are sent to our server, to understand usage and research.

If you want to send this data to your server instead, change the config below:

// capacitor.config.json
{
  "appId": "**.***.**",
  "appName": "Name",
  "plugins": {
    "CapacitorUpdater": {
      "statsUrl": "YOUR_URL"
    }
  }
}

Data Structure

Section titled “Data Structure”

What your server will receive is:

interface AppInfosStats {
  "action": "set", // can be set, delete, set_fail, reset, revert
  // Then it's the same info as update
  "app_id": "**.***.**", // app identifier in the store
  "device_id": "*******", // unique id per app install
  "platform": "ios", // or android
  "custom_id": "user_1", // represent your user
        "version_name": "1.2.3", // version of the web build
        "version_build": "1.2.0", // version of the native build
        "version_code": "120", // build number of the native build
  "version_os": "16", // OS version of the device
        "plugin_version": "4.0.0"// to make your api behave differently with different plugins
        "is_emulator": false,
      "is_prod": false,
}

You can also totally disable it, with an empty string. Keep in mind, statistics are made private friendly and help me to understand how people use the plugin, to resolve issues and improve it.

Comportamento previsto quando non c’è aggiornamento

Section titled “Comportamento previsto quando non c’è aggiornamento”

Quando il tuo endpoint di aggiornamento non ha una nuova versione, deve rispondere con un payload di errore come:

{ "error": "no_new_version_available", "message": "No new version available" }

Il codice error deve essere esattamente no_new_version_available. Il message può essere qualsiasi stringa (solo per log/debug). Questo è il comportamento previsto ed è comunque restituito con HTTP 200. Se invece il tuo endpoint restituisce un 200 senza url, il plugin lo considererà un errore di download e invierà download_fail.

Implementation Example

Section titled “Implementation Example”

Here is an example of code in JavaScript to save the stats of the plugin:

interface AppInfos {
  version_name: string
  action: 'ping' |
          'delete' |
          'reset' |
          'set' |
          'get' |
          'set_fail' |
          'update_fail' |
          'download_fail' |
          'windows_path_fail' |
          'canonical_path_fail' |
          'directory_path_fail' |
          'unzip_fail' |
          'low_mem_fail' |
          'download_10' |
          'download_20' |
          'download_30' |
          'download_40' |
          'download_50' |
          'download_60' |
          'download_70' |
          'download_80' |
          'download_90' |
          'download_complete' |
          'download_manifest_start' |
          'download_manifest_complete' |
          'download_zip_start' |
          'download_zip_complete' |
          'download_manifest_file_fail' |
          'download_manifest_checksum_fail' |
          'download_manifest_brotli_fail' |
          'decrypt_fail' |
          'app_moved_to_foreground' |
          'app_moved_to_background' |
          'uninstall' |
          'needPlanUpgrade' |
          'missingBundle' |
          'noNew' |
          'disablePlatformIos' |
          'disablePlatformAndroid' |
          'disableAutoUpdateToMajor' |
          'cannotUpdateViaPrivateChannel' |
          'disableAutoUpdateToMinor' |
          'disableAutoUpdateToPatch' |
          'channelMisconfigured' |
          'disableAutoUpdateMetadata' |
          'disableAutoUpdateUnderNative' |
          'disableDevBuild' |
          'disableEmulator' |
          'cannotGetBundle' |
          'checksum_fail' |
          'NoChannelOrOverride' |
          'setChannel' |
          'getChannel' |
          'rateLimited' |
          'disableAutoUpdate' |
          'InvalidIp' |
          'blocked_by_server_url'
  version_build: string
  version_code: string
  version_os: string
  plugin_version: string
  platform: string
  app_id: string
  device_id: string
  custom_id?: string
  is_prod?: boolean
  is_emulator?: boolean
}


export const handler: Handler = async (event) => {
  const body = JSON.parse(event.body || '{}') as AppInfos
  const {
    platform,
    app_id,
    action,
    version_code,
    version_os,
    device_id,
    version_name,
    version_build,
    plugin_version,
  } = body
  console.log('update asked', platform,
    app_id,
    action,
    version_os,
    version_code,
    device_id,
    version_name,
    version_build,
    plugin_version)
  // Save it in your database
  return { status: 'ok' }
}

This endpoint should return a JSON:

{ "status": "ok" }
