About

The Eclipse Foundation started in 2023 a metrics program to gather and provide activity metrics for its hosted projects. The intent is for project teams, working groups, and users, to get insights about project’s health, reach and community dynamics, and to provide data for fact-based analysis and decisions.

Content

Metrics: we basically provide metrics extracted from GitLab, GitHub, Git repositories, as documented in the Data Model section . As time goes (and allows) we will extend this scope to other data sources in the future.

Time range: this website is built from data collected over a time range of one year. For detailed dates and times, please see the Stats section or the documentation .

Note that you can easily reuse most of the content of this website, like charts, badges, or CSV files. Most assets use a known, stable URL, enabling external linking and usage. See the Reusing content section in the documentation.

A warning about delays: it takes time for any activity to show up in the dashboard: data is extracted by the crawlers, inserted in the OpenSearch database, and indices need to be rebuilt. Depending on the time of the last fetch from the crawlers, and the indices to rebuild, new data usually takes a few days to be visible in the dashboard and on this website.

About privacy

As you may expect, the Eclipse Foundation takes privacy very seriously. For this reason, all PII (Personally Identifiable Information) on this website are anonymised thoroughly, including information related to individuals and organisations. The Bitergia dashboard is by default anonymised with the same method, showing UUIDs for any PII.

For any concern or question regarding privacy or anonymisation, please get in touch ! We will diligently treat all requests.

Third-party software and dependencies

For the retrieval and presentation process, we rely on GrimoireLab , an open source tool developed and maintained by Bitergia . Identity management is provided by SortingHat , which implements automatic affiliation and smart heuristics to associate individuals and organisations across the various platforms and tools – since users very often have different entities or ids in different platforms, e.g. GitLab vs. GitHub. You can learn more about the process in the dedicated section of the documentation .

This website uses Hugo as a static website generator, and content is built using a bunch of wonderful Python librarires, including:
