Display unique visitors separately with and without crawlers #2307

Open tigexplorer opened 2 years ago

Thirst, thanx for your great analyzer!

Is it possible to display unique visitors separately with and without crawlers, but not setting --ignore-crawlers? So one can have both numbers on one report?

allinurl commented 2 years ago

Happy to hearyou found it useful! Currently it's not possible, however, I think #117 will be the easiest approach to this as it will let you have multiple dashboards. I'm working on that feature as we speak, so please stay tuned for it.

By the way, the workaround right now will be to run two different reports, one with --ignore-crawlers and one without.

Hello Gerardo,

first thanks a lot for this great tool! :-)

I was also looking for the same: All requests should be included in the report (e. g. to show the overall amount of requests and especially also data transferred in the top) - this should include also crawlers.

But then it would be helpful - exactly as tigexplorer wrote - to have two separate displays of unique visitors inside the same report with and without crawlers.

Two different reports is not really a good workaround here as you do want to have all the information in one HTML file at the end (which is one of the main advantages of using GoAccess).

Thanks for considering to add this option Andreas

@ab-tools Andreas, Thanks for the feedback. I agree that having two diff reports it's not ideal. I'll keep this in mind as I work on the details of #117.
